Re: Using the Windows threads and processes functions
Hello all,
My next version of the WinClass Library will have something
similar to a secondary thread, where you can do things that
take an extremely long time (like save a large file) while
the user still gets to choose options such as 'stop saving',
etc., or menu options, and doesnt stop the windows from being
redrawn. You can give the user the option of 'quiting' the
program or prevent them from quiting while the file is being
saved, so the app doesnt loose data because they quit early.
Even so, i can still see using two Euphoria exe's and file
mapping as a good alternative to threads, where the two
share only the data they need to share. Might acutally
be simpler then implementing an app using multiple threads
anyway because it force you to keep careful track of what data
is being shared.
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
