Example

The following example shows how to suspend and resume execution of a thread within a process. The main thread creates Thread2 and allows it to begin executing. Thread2 iterates through a loop that prints a line and then sleeps, relinquishing its time slice to the main thread. After one iteration by Thread2, the main thread suspends Thread2 and then resumes it. Subsequently, Thread2 completes the remaining three iterations.

#define INCL_DOSPROCESS

#include <os2.h>

#define   SEGSIZE       4000   /* Number of bytes requested in segment */
#define   ALLOCFLAGS    0      /* Segment allocation flags - no sharing */
#define   SLEEPSHORT    5L     /* Sleep interval -  5 milliseconds */
#define   SLEEPLONG     75L    /* Sleep interval - 75 milliseconds */
#define   RETURN_CODE   0      /* Return code for DosExit() */
