Hi,

 I've search everywhere but i could not find the answer to my question. So i would like to ask in this forum(my last hope), can anyone let me know that can SKILL do multithreading? or something similiar to it? if SKILL can do it, can anyone let me know what command can enable me to do so? thanks

 

Regards,

SL

    Hi SL

    SKILL is not multi-threaded. This post might be useful for you. Would you please describe more on your objectives?

    Best regards
    Quek

    Hi SL,

    As Quek points out (and Andrew in the linked article), SKILL is
    not multithreaded. In the linked article I mentioned that you
    can use the hiRegTimer() function to schedule a call to a SKILL
    function, but also, another thing that you might be able to do
    is to run an external program, via the ipcBeginProcess() SKILL
    command (or similar).

    Hopefully this will help you?

    regards,

    Lawrence.
