 MTASK 1.1 - Multi-Tasking Unit for Turbo Pascal 5  Wayne E. Conrad 12.11.1988

Модуль для организации псевдо-мультизадачности. В прилагаемом примере первый процесс запускает два других процесса, которые "прокручивают" счетчик в текстовом режиме. После завершения дочерних процессов основной процесс тоже завершается.

MTASK 1.1 by Wayne Conrad MTASK is a unit for Turbo Pascal 5.0, to allow a Turbo Pascal program to exhibit simple multi-tasking. MTASK gives your program a non-preemptive, request driven multi-tasking capability. I will explain what I mean by that later. MTASK was written and donated to the public domain by Wayne E. Conrad (me) in November of 1988.

Please distribute the complete ARC file, with documentation and demonstration programs included. 1.1 INTRODUCTION MTASK allows your Turbo Pascal program to do simple multi-tasking. I call MTASK's brand of multi-tasking "non-preemptive, request driven." Preemptive is a fairly common phrase, meaning that the switch from one task to another can happen at almost any time. Most preemptive systems have an interrupt driver hooked to a hardware timer, which causes a task switch every time the hardware timer goes off. The advantage of this kind of multi-tasking is that your programs don't have to be written with multi-tasking in mind, and don't even have to know that its taking place. Also, no program can hog the system for long, because the interrupt driver switches from one program to another fairly often. Desqview and Double-DOS are programs that do preemptive, interrupt-driven multi-tasking. The disadvantage of this kind of multi-t
