ThreadSuspend (Function)

In french: ThreadSuspend

Warning
This function is strongly not recommended because it violently stops the current thread. It can cause serious problems (critical section not released, etc.). It is recommended to use ThreadWaitSignal and ThreadSendSignal.

Temporarily suspends the execution of the specified thread. The current processes is not locked. To resume the execution of the thread, use ThreadResume.

Reminder A thread is a process launched in parallel with the current application ("main thread"). This allows you to run a task in the background (e.g. backup, etc.).

Example

// -- Clic sur le bouton BTN_Enregistre
// Suspend l'impression en tâche de fond
ThreadSuspend("Impression_fond")
// Enregistrement
...
// Reprise de l'impression
ThreadResume("Impression_fond")

Syntax

ThreadSuspend(<Thread name>)

<Thread name>: Character string

Name of the thread to suspend. This name is given when running the thread (ThreadExecute).
No error occurs if the name of the thread does not exist.
Warning Thread name cannot be an empty string: it is impossible to suspend the current thread.

Remarks

In order for the current thread to wait for another thread, use ThreadWaitSignal.
