3. Need a bit of help with threads programming
Hi all, I need a subroutine that reads the next line in an open file. Ordinarily this would be a trivial subroutine... you just read a line off of a filehandle. However, I need this subroutine to be threads-safe. That is, I plan on having many threads be using this subroutine, and I need to make sure that it is always reading the next line no matter what thread is using it. The problem I came across is that you are not allowed to share filehandles (GLOBS). So how would I go about implementing this routine? Thanks, David Morel

5. FAQ needed for PERL/PERL5 modules and paths
Can someone direct me to an explanation of the difference between - perl - perl5 - PERLLIB - PERL_LIB - PERL5LIB - PREFIX - INSTALL_BASE - INSTALLPRIVLIB, etc. perlmodinstall makes the extraordinary statement: For instance, where I say "perl Makefile.PL", you can substitute "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/my/perl_directory" to install the modules into "/my/perl_directory". Then you can use the modules from your Perl programs with "use lib "/my/perl_directory/lib/site_perl";" or sometimes just "use "/my/perl_directory";". thus suggesting that the only way to use non-standard paths is by modifying the source code. If that were true, it would be a reason to switch to python or something else. Any thoughts are appreciated,
6. Escaping @ in regexps: perl5.6 vs perl5.8 - Perl
Hi, I just installed perl 5.8 from the ports. I used "use.perl port" to switch to the new version and indeed, "perl -v" indicates version 5.8. The problem is, "use.perl system" won't let me go back to the version 5.6 installed witht the base system. Please, is there any way to go back to 5.6? Many of the ports I installed while using perl5.6 wont function now. I am using a FBSD 5.2.1 box. Many thanks for any answer!
