Thread

A unit of execution in a process.

Can run methods on GodotObjects simultaneously. The use of synchronization via Mutex or Semaphore is advised if working with shared objects. Note: Breakpoints won't break on code if it's running in a thread. This is a current limitation of the GDScript debugger.

Functions

getId
String getId()

Returns the current Thread's ID, uniquely identifying it among all threads. If the Thread is not running this returns an empty string.

isActive
bool isActive()

Returns true if this Thread is currently active. An active Thread cannot start work on a new method but can be joined with waitToFinish.

opAssign
typeof(null) opAssign(typeof(null) n)
opEquals
bool opEquals(Thread other)
opEquals
bool opEquals(typeof(null) n)
start
GodotError start(GodotObject instance, String method, VariantArg2 userdata, long priority)

Starts a new Thread that runs method on object instance with userdata passed as an argument. Even if no userdata is passed, method must accept one argument and it will be null. The priority of the Thread can be changed by passing a value from the priority enum. Returns constant OK on success, or constant ERR_CANT_CREATE on failure.

toHash
size_t toHash()
waitToFinish
Variant waitToFinish()

Joins the Thread and waits for it to finish. Returns what the method called returned.
