Hallo IVAN!

Antwort auf eine Message von IVAN TODOROSKI an ALL:

 IT> Server. The first   thing that strikes me as strange is that although
 IT> the clases are   enumerated in this order, Time Critical has actually
 IT> higher priority   than Foreground Server. I wonder why it isn't the
 IT> last...

mh. because the first there are there with OS/2 1.1 and the Forground
server was added with OS2 1.3. 

 IT>   They both run at priority 0x200 (Regular, level 0) by default. So I  
 IT> type DIR /S (as an example of a CPU consuming process) in one window,  

forget priority tests with commandprompts and dir commands. as i remember
IBM implemented special handling of cmd sessions sometime (wth WARP3 or
WARP4, cant remember). and do NOT try to use an add on (PC or something) to
change the priority. who knows what these programs do. 

write 2 applications, or write (as first test) 1 application with 3 threads
and then perform tests. 

and you will see everything is nice and good. 


Servus, Mario!
