Afaik it is implemented in the checksynchronize call in a platform dependent manner. It assumes that you run checksynchronize in the idle event of your eventloop though. (which should be the case for LCL implementations) > Or do you mean a function call is provided that allows the user (or the > LCL) to implement such a functionality. If you mean integrate with your own eventloop, then yes, make sure that your idle event in your eventloop calls checksyncrhonize. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
