I’d love to, except that background threads don’t correspond to dispatch queues. People who are [still] using NSThreads should be able to use this library. (That includes the library itself, actually. It runs a background NSThread of its own for some operations. I tried to convert all of this to GCD two years ago but ran into some really frustrating issues due to pieces of Cocoa not agreeing on which concurrency API to use. For example, I use a _lot_ of NSURLConnection, which doesn’t support dispatch queues, only runloops and NSOperationQueues. And I also use CFStream/NSStream, which only supports runloops. I started a lengthy thread here about this last year, if you recall.) —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
