So the way you currently > do it *is* the way. Indeed, but it is not `itegrated` into the main loop (if there is one?), the way I understand it is that he currently calls CheckSynchronize manually. This is of course a good way to test things, and it is the way to go if you're writing your own main loop; but I think most users don't write their own main loop (save for embedded developers, people writing GUI toolkits and the like). The ideal thing would be to find some java mechanism that allows him to `append` this checksynchronize to `the` main loop, some main-loop hook of sorts. That is IMHO the way to go for, but as my knowledge of java is rather limited, I cannot comment on the feasibility or practical details of this approach. -- Ewald _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
