Hello, I'm playing with threads by using the TThread object under Linux with FPC 1.06.
What is the equivalent to the sleep function found in Delphi ? I tried nanosleep but the task assign to the thread seems to failed. procedure TVAProcess.Execute; var tm:timespec; begin while not Terminated do begin nanosleep(FInterval, tm); GeneSuiv; end; end; The task executed in the thread is the following (I'm using gtk2forpascal.) : gdk_threads_enter; gdk_draw_line(Buffer,style^.black_gc,p1.x,p1.y,p2.x,p2.y); gtk_widget_queue_draw_area (PGtkWidget(AsGObject),tl.x,tl.y,w+1, h+1); gdk_threads_leave; Nothing happens until I click or press a key. Then the app draws all the point since the last user event received !! As i saw an example in GTK doc using phtread, I'm also evaluating the pthread wrapper for FPC wrote by Boyan Krastev : http://code.masterbo.org/filez/pthreadfpc-0.1.tgz Does someone use it ?
