POSIX-SchedYield

This module exposes the POSIX system call sched_yield(2) to Perl programs. For further details please see the perldoc in lib/POSIX/SchedYield.pm.

INSTALLATION

To install this module you require a working POSIX environment and a C compiler. OpenBSD is not supported, since that OS seems to lack an implementation of sched_yield(). So far, the module has been tested successfully on i686 Linux, FreeBSD 6.0 and OS X, please email the author if you installed it (or ran into problems) in a different environment.

To install this module, run the following commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

Alternatively, to install with Module::Build, you can use the following commands:

perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build test
./Build install
