Member Function Documentation

◆ TestBreak()

Bool TestBreak ( )

Checks if the thread received a break command to stop processing.
Normally this is only true when Cinema 4D is closing, or when End() has been called.

Returns
true processing should be terminated, otherwise false.

◆ End()

void End ( Bool  wait = true)

Ends the thread. This function will not return until the thread has completely stopped.

Warning
If the thread does not check for TestBreak() then this function will not return until the thread has finished and this might get into a deadlock situation.
Parameters
[in]waitDetermines if thread termination is synchronous or asynchronous:
  • If true the function will not return until the thread is finished.
  • If false the function returns immediately although the thread will still run until it is finished.

◆ IsRunning()

Bool IsRunning ( )

Checks if the thread is running.

Returns
true if the thread is running, otherwise false.
