JMIdle

Allows JManager time to service other threads.

OSStatus JMIdle(JMSessionRef session, 
UInt32 jmTimeMillis);

session

The current session.

JMTimeMillis

The amount of time, in milliseconds, allowed to service other threads. For the default wait period, you can set this parameter to kDefaultJMTime.

function result

A result code. See "JManager Result Codes" (page 69) for a list of result codes that JManager may return in this field.

DISCUSSION

If no threads need to be serviced, JMIdle returns immediately. JMIdle also returns (suspending other threads) if a user event occurs in the current session. You should call the JMIdle function once each time through the event loop.
