    <p>I've been trying to extend the first answer at Perl Monks (<a href="http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=735923" rel="nofollow">http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=735923</a>) to a threaded model to no avail. I keep getting issues with not being able to pass a coderef</p> <p>In my superclass I define the threadpool as a package variable so it can be shared amongst the subclasses:</p> <pre><code>package Things::Generic; my $Qwork = new Thread::Queue; my $Qresults = new Thread::Queue; my @pool = map { threads-&gt;create(\&amp;worker, $Qwork, $Qresults) } 1..$MAX_THREADS; sub worker { my $tid = threads-&gt;tid; my( $Qwork, $Qresults ) = @_; while( my $work = $Qwork-&gt;dequeue ) { my $result = $work-&gt;process_thing(); $Qresults-&gt;enqueue( $result ); } $Qresults-&gt;enqueue( undef ); ## Signal this thread is finished } sub enqueue { my $self = shift; $Qwork-&gt;enqueue($self); } sub new { #Blessing and stuff } . . </code></pre> <p>Now for the subclasses. It is guaranteed that they have a process_thing() method.</p> <pre><code>package Things::SpecificN; use base qw (Things::Generic); sub new() { #instantiate } sub do_things { my $self = shift; #enqueue self into the shared worker pool so that "process_thing" is called $self-&gt;enqueue(); } sub process_thing() { #Do some work here return RESULT; } </code></pre> <p>#</p> <pre><code>Main my @things; push @things, Things::Specific1-&gt;new(); push @things, Things::Specific2-&gt;new(); . . push @things, Things::SpecificN-&gt;new(); #Asynchronously kick off "work" foreach my $thing (@things) { $thing-&gt;do_things(); } </code></pre> <p>My goal is to put a list of "work" on the queue. Each thread will pull work from the queue and execute it, no matter what it. Each Thing has it's own unique work, however the function to do the work will be guaranteed to be called "process_thing". I just want the thread pool to grab an entry from the queue and do the "something". I think I am describing functionality similar to Android AsyncTask.</p> <p>My Perl is not high enough for Thread::Queue::Any</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
