thread.kill
| Syntax |
thread.kill (id)
|
| Params |
id is the numeric id of the thread that you wish to terminate.
|
| Action |
Marks the indicated thread for termination the next time it is swapped in. If the thread is sleeping, it is woken up automatically.
|
| Returns |
True
|
| Examples |
thread.kill (104) » true
thread.kill (thread.getCurrentID ()); msg ("this won't happen")
thread.kill (999)
|
| Errors |
It is an error to specify a nonexistent thread id.
|
| Notes |
Thread ids can be obtained from other thread verbs, or by examining the system.compiler.threads table. Killing the current thread is similar to calling scriptError (""), except that it cannot be trapped by a try statement. If you kill the agent thread, it will be recreated automatically in one second. To stop the agent thread from running, you must call Frontier.enableAgents (false).
