sorry, please ignore this; if you are using a boolean in that way, of
course it also works on MP systems (as opposed to e.g. a counter).

ah, and, contrary to what apparently many people think:
o Bert Fraterman [09/24/09 11:48]:
setStopped() was paired with the setting of a volatile boolean, and in
being "volatile" does not help the boolean much on multi core or multi
processor systems, due to cache. it only tells the compiler to not do
fancy optimization stuff on it. see e.g.
