Some senseless babbling from Ian Moote to Vitus Jensen
on 06-04-00  11:16 about Using Prf* routines in wi...

HR> VJ> Does anybody know whether Prf* routines are usable from inside a
HR> VJ> window proc? Do they block or violate the 1/10s rule in any
HR> VJ> other way?

IM> What's the "1/10's rule"? TIA and TTYL.

A window procedure which is run while PM is waiting is supposed to return
control within 1/10th of a second, so that the system response doesn't
suffer.  Anything that takes more than that period of time to accomplish
should be done on a second thread.
