Cinema API Threading

The Cinema API includes several classes to handle threads and to create custom threads:

• A BaseThread object represents a standard Cinema 4D thread, see BaseThread Manual.
• Multiple functions exist to check the thread context, see Thread Utility Manual.
• C4DThread is the base class for custom threads, see C4DThread Manual.
• Multiple tools exist to ensure safe thread synchronization and serialization, see Thread Synchronization Manual.

Note

For new code use the threading tools of the Maxon API, see Maxon API Threading.
