I have a Carbon thread created with MPCreateTask. I need to loop inside the thread until something happens, so I want to play nice and give up the processor. I'm looking for the Carbon equivalent of [NSThread sleepUntilDate:(NSDate *)aDate]; (2) I believe that YieldToThread gives time only to old-style "cooperative" threads, not MP threads. Right? (3) Calling EventAvail once gave time to other processes. Is it a dead issue?
