Hi Xiaofang,

Pthreads support is built into the ppm packages for PDL available from 
http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppmindex.html .

Installing those binaries on ActivePerl-5.16 should be easy if you follow the 
instructions at:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/pdl/index.php?title=Installing_PDL_on_Windows

Recent versions of Strawberry also have the ppm utilitiy – but I think that 
Strawberry-5.8.8 does not.
This adds a a bit more complexity to installing those binaries – see question 1 
at http://www.sisyphusion.tk/faq.html .

If you want to build PDL (with pthreads) yourself from source then you need to 
have a pthreads library against which to build PDL.
Let us know if that’s what you want to do, and we’ll try and work out how that 
might be achieved.
Recent versions of Strawberry come with a pthreads library – again, I don’t 
think it was included with Strawberry-5.8.8.

Cheers,
Rob

Subject: [Perldl] How to enable pthread on win32 pdl?
Hello!

I'm new to PDL. I had pdl installed on two laptops running XP-32bit:
1. Activeperl 5.16 compiled from source using MSVC6.0
2. Strawberry perl 5.8.8 with mingw gcc 3.4.5
>From manuals I learned that PDL can take advantage of mult-core platforms.
But these features are not available on both of my XP. So it is possible to 
enable
the pthread feature of PDL on either of the above perl under win32? And how?

Best Regards,
        Xiaofang
