17       new
18           use MCE::Channel;
19
20           # The default is tuned for one producer and many consumers.
21           my $chnl_a = MCE::Channel->new( impl => 'Threads' );
22
23           # Specify the 'mp' option for safe use by two or more producers
24           # sending or recieving on the left side of the channel (i.e.
25           # ->enqueue/->send or ->recv2/->recv2_nb).
26
27           my $chnl_b = MCE::Channel->new( impl => 'Threads', mp => 1 );

LIMITATIONS

46       The t/04_channel_threads tests are disabled on Unix platforms for Perl
47       less than 5.10.1. Basically, the MCE::Channel::Threads implementation
48       is not supported on older Perls unless the OS vendor applied upstream
49       patches (i.e. works on RedHat/CentOS 5.x running Perl 5.8.x).
