|
|
* $ONELINER$
|
|
* Generate an idle event to allow incremental garbage collection.

* $ARGUMENTS$

* $RETURNS$

* NIL
|
|
* $DESCRIPTION$
|
|
* During memory-intensive operations that do not generate much in
|
|
* the way of idle states, the Clipper runtime may not get a chance to
|
|
* perform garbage collection of discarded memory. This can eventually
|
|
* lead to any of a variety of memory-related internal errors.
|
|
*
|
|
* This function attempts to alleviate the problem by providing a
|
|
* mechanism by which an idle event can be artifically generated at
|
|
* will. The idle event will cause the CA-Clipper runtime to perform
|
|
* an incremental memory scavenge.
|
|
*
|
|
* This function makes use of an undocumented interal routine. If this
|
|
* this fact makes you uncomfortable then don't use this function, you
|
|
* miserable jello-spined lump of human debris.
|
|
* $EXAMPLES$
|
|
*
|
|
* while Whatever // Some batch process
|
|
*
|
|
* Something() // Create 'n' discard a bunch of stuff
|
|
*
|
|
* FT_Idle() // Take out the garbage
|
|
*
|
|
* end

* FT_OnIdle()
