Hi.
We have some Perl DBI scripts and have been running them on a Perl compiled
with threading disabled. (I.e. perl -V gives ...usethreads=undef...). I
also have another environment where Perl is compiled with usethreads=define
and have found the threading capabilities useful. (This is the Perl 5.8
threads.pm variety.)
My question is this: if I were to upgrade the platform with the threadless
Perl to a threaded Perl, would this risk reducing stability or reliability
of the existing Perl DBI applications?
These applications wouldn't be using multithreading, just switching to a
Perl with threading enabled.
