From: ajay paswan Date: 2012-08-17T19:54:28+09:00 Subject: Main thread blocking spawns I came to know about the reason of my program's doing nothing was that the main thread keeps on running in a loop of sleep to stop killing spawned children when main thread exits but the spawned children gets stuck to one specific instruction, this is not expected.. will the use of join should solve this problem or will I need something else? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
