Yes, that is a known issue. Don't use Win32::OLE with threading,
it doesn't work.
Ok, good to know and thanks for a quick reply. Is this fact already
mentioned in the docs? I must confess I haven't looked at the OLE docs too
closely, I've learned most of what I've needed to know from OLE in the Gecko
book and Visual Studio 6 OLE Viewer. The Gecko book says that Active State
distroes should use OLE rather than Win32::OLE. Is this up to date info and
will the OLE module work differently in terms of threading?
I reckon the problem lies with PErl in the end. Oddly enough I can use
multi-threaded OLE servers somewhat. For instance speaking text through SAPI
5 asynchronously provided that I sleep some ms in Perl so that the SAPI
thread has CPU time to speak up. If I try to do something heavy while the
SAPI 5 thread is speaking, it seems to be starving mostly. I haven't
experienced the same problem in C++ and Win32.
