Re^2: Abnormal exit with threads, LWP and the Perl Debugger

No, I did not get a resolution.

At the moment I am using a work around where if I want to debug the parts of the code that do http requests I run a single threaded version of the script, and if I want to debug the threading stuff, I comment out the http stuff and replace it with dummy placeholder code.

It would be nice to know where the bug lies so that I can report it to the correct place, though seeing as LWP is core, perhaps I should just report it as a bug against perl, and not concern myself with which module is to blame.

Perhaps the simplest workaround -- and potentially quick way to trace the origin -- would be to satisfy the missing call: `## somewhere at the top of your application. BEGIN { package Devel; use Carp qw[ cluck ]; sub CLONE { cluck "Devel::CLONE called with args [ @_ ]"; } }` [download] That ought to both get you passed the symptom and provide a full trace-back to the originating cause. You might have to experiment with return values to prevent some error action being taken. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. The start of some sanity?	[reply] [d/l]
