Thread accessing static property causes segfault about pthreads

Unrelated to static access but static declaration, remove static $test ...

When it comes to statics ( which I just added again a couple of days ago ) I'm undecided as to what static should mean, it cannot mean the same in the scope of threading because I cannot gain enough control over static properties to safely read/write them as truly static with respect to a declaration, I think they'll have to be static with respect to a Thread context.

Ah thx for pointing out the declaration. Missed that one. So its only a problem of declaration and access to statics, not constants.

Well in any "Normal" case (other languages) statics are basically treated the same as globals.
But in this case, if I'm not mistaken the problem of access is the same.

Reguarding the "control" problem.. you could look into the possibility of using a tick function, to gain control over the execution of the threads, and that way also over the statics. Of course I don't know if this would have any sideeffect on other stuff, but might be worth a shot.

I don't intend to write anything in any scope other than the object, statics don't really fit into that ...

I'm aware what static should mean, but it's just not achievable in this environment, some other meaning will have to be applied, what, as yet I'm unsure ...

Ok closing this now ...
