It is possible to spawn a thread from inside another thread but
remember that the thread will belong to the process and not to the
thread that spawned it (as usually with threads...).
use threads;
sub InternalThread {
# do something...
}
sub ExternalThread {
# do something...
my $it = threads->create(\&InternalThread);
# do something else in parallel with InternalThread...
$it->join();
# do the rest
}
# main()
my $et = threads->create(\&ExternalThread);
$et->join();
