Hi, I have a class (JCDataCollector) which I use to collect a large amount of data from the users machine. JCDataCollector has a publicly-accessible method named "collectData:usingFile:shouldLogOutput:". This method is very resource-intensive, and I would like to move it onto its own thread.
So far, I have been able to call the method using NSThread's "detachNewThreadSelector:toTarget:withObject:" functionality. However, I cannot find a way to return the data collected in my "collectData:usingFile:shouldLogOutput:" method to the object which originally detached the thread selector. Also, my "collectData:usingFile:shouldLogOutput:" method takes multiple arguments, but NSThread's "detachNewThreadSelector:toTarget:withObject:" only allows one parameter to be passed. Short of storing all the parameters in an NSArray, is there any way to pass multiple parameters while calling "detachNewThreadSelector:toTarget:withObject:"? Thanks very much, John Cassington _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
