Eternal Gratitude for the help, it's working perfectly, I will consider the exceptions and other stuff now.
Your application is exiting before your forkIOs get a chance to
execute. Instead of
forkIO $ do
...
forkIO $ do
...
forkIO $ do
...
use something like
finished <- newEmptyMVar
forkIO $ do
...
putMVar finished ()
forkIO $ do
...
putMVar finished ()
forkIO $ do
...
putMVar finished ()
replicateM_ 3 (takeMVar finished)
Doing so will avoid your program to exit until all threads have finished.
Note that the code above is extremely fragile: doesn't handle
exceptions, you have to manually specify the number of threads that
you opened, etc. These are abstracted by some libraries on Hackage
that you may use later for Real World Code (TM).
Cheers, =)
