[tcljava-user] Thread 2.5.2 on 64bit Solaris

[<Dav...@na...>]

Has anyone had any experience getting tcljava working correctly
in a 64 bit environment?  I am using tclBlend 1.3.1, tcl 8.4.7,
and thread 2.5.2 on 64bit Solaris 8/sparcv9.  For various reasons,
(the main one being that gcc defaults to 64 bit mode) I built
64 bit versions of all the binaries.

I am finding that the Thread package is misbehaving and my guess
(at this stage) is that it's due to some sort of 32/64 bit confusion:

    % package require Thread
    2.5
    % set tid [thread::create]
    77309411328
    % thread::send $tid {some command}
    invalid thread id
    %

Does anyone have any ideas about what's going wrong here?

thanks
