Hi All.
A question about threads from the XS-embedding-module perspective:
What is the difference between MY_CXT and PL_modglobal?
I have implemented C running Perl module that embed a C XS function, and
want to pass a pointer to that function from the C code that runs Perl.
The Perl side span multiple threads, and each call that C function.
Until now I used PL_modglobal, as I thought that it is per-interpreter
hash that can be used safely from different threads. After a few
crashes, I'm not so sure.
So, what is the difference between MY_CXT and PL_modglobal? not in the
global scope that one have while the other is local, but from threads
safety question.
Thanks,
Shmuel.
