Hi,
I'm fairly new to threading and i would like to start a new thread but when
the thread isn't completed within 30 seconds i would like the thread to end
and resume the procedure that started the thread. Preferably with an event.
I tried to find information on the internet but i can't find a sample that i
understand.
The samples that are provided include several other things that i think i
don't need.
Language is a problem and i can't find any (good) samples in my own language.
If you can, please help, it would be greatly appriciated
Thanks in advance!

My first thought is that if you are "resuming the procedure that started the
thread", you are wanting to block the program until the thread finishes or
times out. If this is the case, do you really need a thread at all?

Rob,
Would you not try with a more simpler solution. A thread is not something
that stops direct when you abort it etc.
As well can you tell why you want to use threading (as Robin already asked).
Often we see here that people want to use threading and than the only result
is that the application takes more resources and time.
Language should not be a problem, the most activate persons in this
newsgroup are from German, English, Danish, Spanish and Dutch speaking
countries (I hope I forget nobody) and there are a lot of visitors with
other native languages. While your name sound at least Dutch.

points.
I think an optional web page would be convenient interface. The

All,
I have a UI form calling a class object that contains a timer that
routinely draws intensive information to the screen (~30 fps). The
drawing is invoked on the main UI thread. I need the user to be able
to interact with the UI while the drawing is happening (dynamically
change drawing properties). Since the drawing is happening on the main
UI thread, the UI form doesn't receive the user control events
consistently (if at all).

Hi all,
I have a problem with with Thread.Join( Timeout ) where the timeout never occurs.
I basically need to make a connection to an AS400 box which works fine. Once in a blue moon the AS400 gets a problem and the way this is handled on AS400 is by hanging. If I was to connect directly this would mean my main process would hang as well, so I've spawned a worker thread and used a Thread.Join( Timeout ) to make sure it always returns with...

Hello All,
I have a system. An instrument attched to 'com1' is wireless connected
to many sensors at different locations. The instrument can forward
the "commands" (from pyserial's write()) to those sensors. Based on
the "commands", the sensors keep sending corresponding data back to
the instrument which wraps up those data and put into "com1" . The
readlines() of pyserial pick up those data for processing.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
