Updateable isSequentiallyUpdated issue?
Posted: Wed Apr 17, 2013 5:21 am
Hey Norbo I was just wondering if you could explain exactly what the code below means in the Updateable class.
/// <summary>
/// Gets and sets whether or not the updateable should be updated sequentially even in a multithreaded space.
/// If this is true, the updateable can make use of the space's ThreadManager for internal multithreading.
/// </summary>
private bool isSequentiallyUpdated = true;
I cannot quite work out if it enables multithreading when set to true or false.
The description above makes me think that setting it to TRUE will enable multithreading, but the variables name makes me think otherwise as Sequentially updating a list of things wouldn't be able to have multithreading.
Could you give me a heads up on what it does?
