Posted by SelkirkTMO on Sun Aug 5 02:33:48 2007, in response to Re: Max Deadlock Obtained, posted by Jeff H. on Sun Aug 5 02:11:53 2007. In WindowsCE ("WINCE") coding, "deadlock" means that two threads are in a mutex (mutually exclusive mode) and refuse to release because each is dependent on the other ceding control. Literally, a "mexican standoff." Apparently the code attempts to recover from the deadlock condition but is unable to ... but if you hit the books on deadlocks, you're only permitted to have 8 or 16 total (can't remember which it is now) ... but whoever coded up the announcements code has too many schmoos leaping off the cliff. :) |
