ContinueIndependently (Daemon subroutine)

Continue processing independently in daemon (Daemon class)

[Introduced in Sirius Mods 8.1]

This method tells a daemon that did a ReturnToMaster Daemon class call to continue processing at the point of the call. Unlike the Continue method, ContinueIndependently returns immediately, thus allowing the thread that issued ContinueIndependently to run in parallel with the daemon thread. Unlike ContinueAsynchronously, this method makes the daemon thread completely independent of the parent thread, so the daeamon is no longer available.

Syntax

daemon:ContinueIndependently[( [Input= object])] Throws DaemonLost, IncorrectDaemonState

Syntax terms

daemon	A previously defined Daemon object.
object	This optional, name allowed, argument is either: An object passed to the daemon thread. This object must be deep copyable, as described in: "Copying objects". A Boolean value. If a Null object

Usage notes

• Issuing ContinueIndependently against a daemon not in a ReturnToMaster wait results in an IncorrectDaemonState exception.
• The Continue and ContinueAsynchronously methods also tell a daemon to continue from a ReturnToMaster wait.
