#X text 154 407 !!!!! WARNING !!!!!;
#X text 30 436 detach/join provide the possibility of threaded patching
\, beware of the risks:;
#X text 30 466 - not every pd object is thread-safe (if unsure \, look
at the source \, ask the pd-list or me);
#X text 31 497 - pd is not completely thread-safe itself;
#X text 31 516 - everything that is triggered by the detached message
will be detached - so don't mix threaded and non-threaded message paths
unless you know what you are doing. use join to synchronize with the
main pd thread !;
#X text 31 575 - if detach/join crashes pd during a performance \,
don't complain ...;
#X text 31 607 - both detach and join have an overhead ... so only
use them if you really need threaded patching \, e.g. have a subpatch
that has to run for quite some time and would interrupt audio or something
else;

#X text 37 39 1) this will block the system for 5 sec:;
#X obj 117 161 print EX1_DONE;
#X text 554 112 (instead of sleep you could;
#X msg 499 73 5;
#X obj 499 123 sleep;
#X text 396 39 2) to avoid this you can run it in a helper thread:
;
#X obj 499 97 detach;
#X obj 499 184 print EX2_DONE;
#X text 560 127 of course use an other cpu;
#X text 559 143 intensive object which could;
#X text 561 158 block the main thread);
#X text 34 252 3) be aware that each object connected to;
#X text 55 267 detach will run in the helper thread:;
#X msg 127 305 5;
#X obj 127 366 sleep;
#X obj 127 330 detach;
#X obj 170 397 print EX3_DONE_1;

#X text 164 457 (and anything else connected;
#X text 171 472 to objects which are connected;
#X text 172 487 to detach !);
#X text 392 251 4) to synchronize these objects with pd main thread
;
#X text 413 268 again you have to use the join object:;
#X text 58 56 (so you will get e.g. an 5 sec;
#X text 61 71 audio drop out !);

#X text 31 150 Join synchronizes messages from all threads to the pd
main thread. The message to the inlet will be sent to the outlet during
the next clock callback of the scheduler. It doesn't matter \, which
thread the message was coming from. Messages from the main pd thread
will be rescheduled.;
#X text 30 217 Join can be used everywhere \, where a message has to
be rescheduled \, this is also useful to place behind any threaded
external calling the outlet function from a helper thread - so you
can be sure \, that the following messages are being run in the main
pd thread.;
