Tcl 8.2 Multithreading Issues
Although Tcl 8.2 is a huge step forward, it still has some issues:
- No commands to create, join, or synchronize threads
- No commands to share resources (e.g., variables, open files)
- Some code is not yet entirely thread safe (e.g., glob)
- The event-loop and memory allocator may be bottlenecks
- Installations normally default to not compiling with threads
-
Happily, AOLserver has addressed these issues...
