Hi, I've added the following section to the docs: --8<--- Using libdbi in multithreaded applications With some precautions, libdbi can be used in multithreaded applications. One way to do this is to initialize separate libdbi instances in each thread. If this is not an option and several threads have to share a single instance, you currently need to protect certain libdbi function calls with mutexes. These functions are dbi-conn-query, dbi-conn-ping, and dbi-conn-error. --8<--- Emmanuel, Kjell, Ethan: with your experience in running multithreaded libdbi apps, do you think this section is appropriate and sufficient? regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
