Thread.setData

Stores variables in the thread environment.

    
    
    
setData(key, value)

Examples

• Set a key-value pair in a concurrent thread and read the key-value pair in the main thread.

  
      javascript
      
      
  function main() {
      var t1 = threading.Thread(function() {
          threading.currentThread().setData("data", 100)
      })
      Sleep(1000)
      Log(`t1.getData("data"):`, t1.getData("data"))
      t1.join()
  }
  

• Supports passing functions as key values.

  
      javascript
      
      
  function main() {
      threading.mainThread().setData("func2", function(p) {
          Log("func2 p:", p)
      })
  
      var t1 = threading.Thread(function() {
          threading.currentThread().setData("func1", function(p) {
              Log("func1 p:", p)
          })
  
          var func2 = threading.mainThread().getData("func2")
          func2("test2")
      })
  
      Sleep(1000)
      var func1 = t1.getData("func1")
      func1("test1")
      t1.join()
  }

Remarks

The data is kept with the Thread object; after the thread has ended (join() or terminate()), it can still be read through a Thread object you still hold. The value parameter must be a serializable variable.
