Is the asynchronous request on this Daemon finished? (Daemon class)
[Introduced in Sirius Mods 7.9]
Syntax
%boolean = daemon:AsynchronousFinished
Syntax terms
| %boolean | Boolean enumeration result set to True if the asynchronous request is finished and False if it is not. |
|---|---|
| daemon | A previously defined Daemon object. |
Usage notes
- It is a request cancelling error to invoke AsynchronousFinished against a daemon that is not processing a RunAsynchronously or ContinueAsynchronously request.
Examples
In the following example, a master thread starts two asynchronous requests on two daemon threads and then polls them using AsynchronousFinished to determine which one is done first and process its response:
%daemon1 is object daemon %daemon2 is object daemon %doneDaemon is object daemon ... %daemon1:runAsynchronously(%commands) %daemon2:runAsynchronously(%commands) repeat forever %(system):wakeupAt(%(system):currentTimeMilliseconds + 100) if %daemon1:asynchronousFinished then %doneDaemon = %daemon1 elseIf %daemon2:asynchronousFinished then %doneDaemon = %daemon2 end if end repeat %doneDaemon:waitAsynchronous(%outputObject)
