- Example of timeout
- Tips
- Note
Multitask (Function) In french: Multitâche Allows you to: - define a timeout,
- give control back to Windows,
- give control back to Windows and to WLanguage.
FOR i = 1 TO 10000

Multitask()

Multitask(100)
Syntax <Timeout>: Optional integer or optional Duration - Perform a delay: <Delay> = positive integer.
The execution of the application is interrupted during <Timeout> hundredths of a second without giving control back to the system. The mouse clicks and the actions performed on the keyboard keys are ignored by the application. For example, the window can be moved but it cannot be resized. The optional processes of controls are always run. Note: If <Delay> = 1, the application immediately returns control to Windows, without waiting 1 hundredth of a second.
The modification of window size is not ignored. On the contrary, the mouse clicks and the actions on the keyboard keys are ignored. The positive values are not allowed. - Handing control back to the system: <Delay> = 0 or not specified.
The system ends the current processes, gives control back to the WINDEV, WEBDEV or WINDEV Mobile application, then takes into account the clicks and the actions performed on the keyboard keys.
Multitask has no effect if <Timeout> = 0. - Return control to Windows and WLanguage: <Delay> = negative integer.
The execution of the application is interrupted during <Timeout> hundredths of a second. Other processes can be run during this time period (redisplaying or running a click code for example). The interactions with the users (mouse click, keystroke, ...) are processed as usual. Note: If <Temporisation> = -1, the application immediately returns control to Windows without waiting 1 hundredth of a second. Note: This parameter can correspond to: - an integer corresponding to the number of hundredths of a second,
- a Duration variable,
- the duration in a readable format (e.g., '1s' or '10cs').
Remarks - To refresh the UI, use MultitaskRedraw.
- The events and timers started before the execution of Multitask are managed during the timeout.
- In a Service application, Multitask must be replaced with ServiceWait.
It is recommended to use ThreadPause instead of Multitask or Timeout when using multiple threads (including the main thread of the application) if the timer does not need to process user actions. Business / UI classification: UI Code
