GXIdleJob

You can use the GXIdleJob function to release time to other processes while your application is performing a computationally intensive task.

void GXIdleJob (gxJob aJob);

aJob

A reference to a job object.

DESCRIPTION

The GXIdleJob function tells QuickDraw GX to release time to other processes that are currently active. If your application is performing a computationally intensive process that can potentially lock other processes out for an extended period of time, you need to periodically call this function.
