Building a Threading Perl

To get started with threads you'll need to compile Perl 5.8.0 (http://cpan.org/src/stable.tar.gz) with threads enabled. You can do that with this command in the unpacked source directory:

sh Configure -Dusethreads

-- http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2002/09/04/threads.html

I'd recommend that you read over the page because there are more suggestions there.

A Google search for compile perl threads produced .75M hits, the one above being first ... cheers, makyo
