    <p>I am working on a mulithreaded TCP server. In the main thread, I listen on a socket and create a new thread for new incoming connections. I want to save all incoming connections in a hash so that I can access them from yet another thread.</p> <p>From the monitor thread, I can not read any newly added connections. It seems a new clients hash is created when creating the monitor thread.</p> <p>How do i keep list of all sockets and loop them from my monitor thread?</p> <p>Current code:</p> <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use IO::Socket; use threads; use Thread::Queue; # init my $clients = {}; my $queue = Thread::Queue-&gt;new; # thread that monitors threads-&gt;create("monitor"); # create the listen socket my $listenSocket = IO::Socket::INET-&gt;new(LocalPort =&gt; 12345, Listen =&gt; 10, Proto =&gt; 'tcp', Reuse =&gt; 1); # make sure we are bound to the port die "Cant't create a listening socket: $@" unless $listenSocket; print "Server ready. Waiting for connections on 34567 ... \n"; # wait for connections at the accept call while (my $connection = $listenSocket-&gt;accept) { # set client socket to non blocking my $nonblocking = 1; ioctl($connection, 0x8004667e, \\$nonblocking); # autoflush $connection-&gt;autoflush(1); # debug print "Accepted new connection\n"; # add to list $clients-&gt;{time()} = $connection; # start new thread and listen on the socket threads-&gt;create("readData", $connection); } sub readData { # socket parameter my ($client) = @_; # read client while (&lt;$client&gt;) { # remove newline chomp $_; # add to queue $queue-&gt;enqueue($_); } close $client; } sub monitor { # endless loop while (1) { # loop while there is something in the queue while ($queue-&gt;pending) { # get data from a queue my $data = $queue-&gt;dequeue; # loop all sockets while ( my ($key, $value) = each(%$clients) ) { # send to socket print $value "$data\n"; } } # wait 0,25 seconds select(undef, undef, undef, 0.25); } } close $listenSocket; </code></pre>

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.
