I'd recommend namign it something like PHP_FakeThread as not to confuse someone into thinking it was real threading..
Ok for code cleanup and docblocks... In effect Thread class need some adjustments to fit PEAR standards. I still think the best name will be PHP_Thread because pnclt_fork() is the only way for threading in PHP lang, cvs.php.net pecl/ext/threads :)
and it's a really threading, not a Fake one... unfortunatly forking doesnt share variable space (although from our tests with the thread extension this is very difficult anyway..) I suppose
fake threading is the Sun Java's one, where only one process really exist into system, and the JVM try to emulate the multi-threading behaviour.... Does it, dont tell those Java zealots :)
I think you should be careful, in presenting it as real threading.. - I didnt look too deeply but I presume you are emulating the Java/C# API, using forking. Regards Alan
