fwiw, I've never been happy with the implementation of child_terminate() in 2.0 - in mp1 it was a nice, graceful way of cleaning up a child process, whereas now it's abrupt and sometimes leaves things in an incomplete state. a good example is Devel::Profiler, which registers a cleanup handler to reap profiling data - in mp1 you can proactively call child_terminate() to force httpd child exit, which generates the profile, whereas in mp2 doing so essentially kills the process and wipes out all your data. I've love if this particular aspect had a better solution, though threads really complicates things... --Geoff --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@perl.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@perl.apache.org
