Steven, I wanted to try using the provided "CreateBackgroundThread" call instead of firing off a Thread myself in my plugin.
I have two questions regarding that:
1) Is there a way to Abort the Thread if it's already started? Or is that handled automatically by MB in some cases? (e.g. when Closing?)
2) Is there a way to detect if a specific Thread has already been started, to avoid starting it again?
Also, could we please consolidate and improve the documentation on the various functions the API provides?
Having to read through 19 (currently) pages in a forum just to find out if there's any information about a specific function is not very practical.
In an ideal scenario either the documentation should be included in the source code itself (e.g. in the form of comments) or on a dedicated page somewhere, with usage examples if possible. I believe that would also help a lot with minimizing support questions regarding the API.
If there's already such a place with documentation and I've missed it, I apologize - could you please point me to it?
