Subject: Re: deadlock producer consumer

thanks Sean,

I have a version with PriorityQueue from algorithms gem to pop the item
with the highest priority first but I had the problem of deadlock
but I tried today before your post a version with two standard queue but 
it doesn't work too,
I don't know why you add the lines :
---------------
item[:consumer] += 1
----------------
and
----------------------
# start things off
producer_queue.push({ :producer => 0, :consumer => 0})
# either will work
#consumer_queue.push({ :producer => 0, :consumer => 0})
------------------------------
I'll try this version and see if it works

regards,
