How do I use threads inside an Object
|
Can't Post

I am trying to use threads inside of a perl object and it isn't working. Here is the code:
<code>
120 sub _openFDCObject
121 {
122 my $self = shift;
123 my $swObject = shift;
124 my $switch = shift;
125 my $fdcObject = FosDataCapture->new($log, $swObject);
126 return ($fdcObject, $switch);
127 }
128
129 sub getFDCObjects
130 {
131 my $self = shift;
132 my %fdcObjectHash;
133 my @threadQueue;
134 my %switches = $self->getSwitches();
135 for my $switch (keys %switches)
136 {
137 #my $fdcObject = $self->_openFDCObject($switches{$switch}, $switch);
138 my $swObject = $switches{$switch};
139 my $thread = threads->create(\$self->_openFDCObject($swObject,$switch));
140 push(@threadQueue, $thread);
141 #$fdcObjectHash{$switch} = $fdcObject;
142 }
143 foreach my $thread (@threadQueue)
144 {
145 my ($fdcObject, $switch);
146 ($fdcObject, $switch) = $thread->join();
147 $fdcObjectHash{$switch} = $fdcObject;
148 }
149 return %fdcObjectHash;
</code>
What I don't know is how I format line 139 to call the subroutine that is part of the object. I have tried the following:
<code>
my $thread = threads->create(\$self->_openFDCObject($swObject,$switch));
my $thread = threads->create(\$self->_openFDCObject,$swObject,$switch);
my $thread = threads->create($self->_openFDCObject,$swObject,$switch);
my $thread = threads->create(&_openFDCObject,$swObject,$switch);
</code>
The first one above does run, but I don't see any threading happening. The other invocations don't pass $swObject and $switch to the subroutine _openFDCObject.
Please let me know if you need any further information.
Thanks
