The mi_yield() function
The mi_yield() routine yields processing to other database server threads.
Syntax
void mi_yield()| Valid in client LIBMI application? | Valid in user-defined routine? |
|---|---|
| No | Yes |
Usage
The mi_yield() function causes the thread that is executing the C UDR to yield control of the virtual processor that is executing it. When the virtual processor is released, it can execute other threads.
Use the mi_yield() call periodically when the routine does CPU or I/O intensive work. The mi_yield() routine is useful in portions of code, such as tight loops, that would otherwise tie up the processor.
Return values
None.
