hiSync

hiSync(
s_deferredDelete
)
=> t / nil

Description

For programs with several GUI-related creation and deletion operations running in a loop, Qt objects deferred to be deleted later may accumulate and affect performance. This function solves this issue by forcing Qt to immediately delete these objects.

Argument

s_deferredDelete

Delete objects deferred for deletion. Valid value: deferredDelete

Values Returned

t	The operation was successful.
nil	The operation failed.

Examples

In the following example, the hiSync SKILL function periodically deletes the objects created in the while loop.

i = 1

while(i <= 500

      schWin = deOpen('(nil libName "TEST" cellName "TEST" viewName "schematic") nil "edit")

      schDB = schWin->cellView

      hiSetCurrentWindow(schWin)

      instDB = dbFindAnyInstByName(schDB "NM0")

      geSelectFig(instDB)

      schHiObjectProperty()

      hiDisplayForm(schObjPropForm)

      schHiCheckAndSave()

      schObjPropForm->m->value="5"

      schObjPropForm->fingers->value="50"

      schObjPropForm->switchSD->value= t

      hiFormDone(schObjPropForm)

      schHiCheckAndSave()

      hiCloseWindow(schWin)

      if(mod(i 5)==0 hiSync('deferredDelete))      

      i++

);while
