Method Details

_invoke

public Component.BodyResult _invoke(IBoxContext context,
 IStruct attributes,
 Component.ComponentBody body,
 IStruct executionState)

The thread component enables multithreaded programming in BoxLang. Threads are independent streams of execution, and multiple threads on a page can execute simultaneously and asynchronously, letting you perform asynchronous processing. Code within the thread component body executes on a separate thread while the request thread continues processing without waiting for the thread body to finish. You use this tag to run or end a thread, temporarily stop thread execution, or join together multiple threads.

_invoke in class Component

Parameters:

context - The context in which the Component is being invoked
