Hi support,is it safe to use an own thread in GetVirtualObjects()? Anything that needs to be paid attention to?
Thanks iA

No, I think that should be fine, as long as you take care to syncronize properly with the thread. I can't say that I see the advantage, since at some point you will have to block the thread, since the call to GetVirtualObjects() must return. Or did you plan to keep a calculation thread going and just return the current state of the calculation?

Thanks Mikael. I have a simulation that has several "passes" and I would like to run some passes at the same time (as they are not dependant on each other), so I would like to run them in seperate threads. I would then like to wait for them to finish and run the rest of the simulation.
Is that feasible or is that the wrong way to go?
Thanks Mikael!

It's hard to say whether you would gain anything. I would expect some overhead from running them as threads. You should benchmark the code to see if it would be more efficient just running them one after the other.

Yep, I am expecting the overhead.
Thank you, will then try it and see if it´s feasible.
