Thread Limitation in Pocket PC 2002

sourcehoh

Currently, I am doing some research on smart Device Application, and the area I'm looking at was Multiithreading in PPC2002. I always facing problem when I create the 5th or 6th thread on my program ( while the first 4 thread was still running ). My application was just hang and not responding. Is there any limitation on PPC 2002 in managing the number of concurrent threads? Is there any recommendation or workaround to solve this problem? Or any precaution step to avoid this problem. Thank for the help.

You might also try SP2 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=359ea6da-fc5d-41cc-ac04-7bb50a134556&displaylang=en It doesn't mention it specifically, but it did fix a lot of stuff. It needs to be downloaded and run directly on the device everytime it loses its memory. The IDE will not do it for you. -Robert

PPC as far as I know is not a multitasking enviroment. It's emulated at best... I had trouble just trying to run 2 of them at the same time. One would never run properly. I found another way of just using one process.
