What is your environment? My project (which is about 70% Haskell) makes extensive use of threadDelay. I've not seen this behavior with 6.4.2. My environment is Linux using a recent 2.6 kernel. For obvious reasons I need to know whether there is a threadDelay issue here that is preparing to bite me. Seth Kurtzberg On Mon, September 18, 2006 7:23 am, Rich Fought wrote:
I've got some unit test code that forks off test processes using the 'system' function and then delays using 'threadDelay' to synchronize with the test process.
This has worked fine until I upgraded to 6.4.2, now some of the 'threadDelay' calls never return - it's like they are stuck in limbo.
Any ideas? What would have changed between 6.4 and 6.4.2 that would cause this behavior?
Thanks, Rich
