In the course of investigating https://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=119507 tonight, I had occasion to build a threaded perl on the dromedary server. (Caution: I have no expertise in threaded perls. I simply wanted to test James Avera's complaint with fewer configuration arguments than he used.) In the test output I noticed that one TODO-ed test in the file named above is now PASSing: ##### $ cd t;./perl harness -v ../cpan/List-Util/t/readonly.t;cd - ok 1 - number constant ok 2 - number variable ok 3 - no change to number variable ok 4 - string constant ok 5 - string variable ok 6 - no change to string variable ok 7 - reference to constant ok 8 - de-reference to constant ok 9 - glob ok 10 - reference a constant in a sub # TODO doesn't work with threads ok 11 - reference a non-constant in a sub ok All tests successful. Test Summary Report ------------------- ../cpan/List-Util/t/readonly.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 11 Failed: 0) TODO passed: 10 Files=1, Tests=11, 0 wallclock secs ( 0.02 usr 0.00 sys + 0.03 cusr 0.00 csys = 0.05 CPU) Result: PASS ##### What else would we have to do to be able to remove the TODO from test #10? Thank you very much. Jim KeenanThread Next
