> Which part is correct? The original code?
The original code was what I meant. However I was thinking of traditional
conditions & locks; NSConditionLock does operate at a higher level, and you
are right that there is no need for an unconditional lock. But really, I
don't see a need for a lock at all.
volatile int threadStatus = kConditionRun;
-(void)awakeFromNib
{
[NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(threadMethod:) toTarget:self
withObject:self];
}
- (void)threadMethod:(id)anObject
{
NSAutoreleasePool* pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
while (threadStatus == kConditionRun)
[self doStuff];
[pool release];
[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(threadHasExited)
withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO];
}
-(void)requestThreadExit
{
threadStatus = kConditionThreadMustExit;
}
-(void) threadHasExited
{
// clean up here
}
