... For those not familiar with it, it is supposed to allow all other threads to clear (process) their message queues before continuing, but I can't quite figure out how to do this.

maybe WaitForSingleObject, MsgWaitForMultipleObjects or Sleep

SleepEx api is definetly what your looking for.
Code: .DoEventsLabel: ...Your Code... PUSH 0 ;event obj alertable = false PUSH 0 ;millisecond delay (none just let other threads get slice) CALL SleepEx JMP .DoEventsLabel OPTIMIZATION TIP (if you don't care about win9x TO xp/nt compat): Always use the Ex suffixed or Nt/Rtl prefixed api's when possible because the shorter named functions call their Ex counterpart anyways. You call VirtualAlloc System call's VirtualAlloc WHICH call's VirtualAllocEx WHICH calls NtAllocateVirtualMemory |

Thanks Vasilev Vjacheslav & r22!
I read the documentaton for Sleep[Ex] again and realised the bit about setting timeout to 0  ... I must be going blind
I'll try that optimisation tip as well thanks cod3b453 |
