Threading in Gecko 1.9
I just finished adding some sample code to the article “The Thread Manager“, which covers the new threading support added to Gecko 1.9. It’s a pretty simple example, but it does show how you go about creating and running tasks on background threads, which should be a big help for folks.
It occurs to me suddenly, as I write this just now, that the reason my blog posts are often short is because they tend to just be pointers to larger content in the Mozilla Developer Center wiki. So really, I’m writing a lot more than it seems like if you just look at my blog.
