DesktopX Threading
How to pass that ball?
Tuesday, May 15, 2007 by TwoWolves | Discussion: OS Customization
According to the DesktopX documentation a script object that runs in a different thread cannot access the methods or properties of a script in the main thread.
So how do I pass data obtained in the retrieval thread back to the object in the main Object thread loop?
I guess I could write it to a file and then send a state change to the master object in order to tell it to read the file but that's a bit of a kludge.
Do any of the DesktopX gurus know of a more elegant way of doing this?
