( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Our single-threaded GUI app was freezing whenver we did dateabase reads and it looked like the app had crashed. Therefore we threaded the app and visual response significantly improved.

What alternatives are there to our problem

You had a problem, you solved it. Why are you looking for alternatives?
Because I like to know the pros and cons of possible solutions. Especially considering the fact that mst said perl threads sucked. Now, he did refuse to explain why, but he did mention those other CPAN modules as alternatives. And I also made it clear that my solution was potentially redundant/conflicting becuase Glib already had threads
(Ps. Why, uniquely do you feel the need to ask your questions in Big Bold Lettering? Are they somehow more important than other peoples questions?)
Each of us is a fingerprint of God, dont superimpose your fingerprint and its tendencies on mine.... or even waste your time in criticism. But anyway, I like to take the semantic aspects of my posts and use the visual layout to distinguish them.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
