[Gambas-user] New feature with Task component

[Olivier Cruilles]

Hello Benoit,

I'm building an application that is a UDP Server to receive and decompilate network flow.

To not lose UDP sequence, the main process of this application need to be the most fast possible. So in this case, when a READ event of the USPServer raise, I just catch it as string directly from the stream and I store it in a string[] variable.

All this part is very fast and work fine.

Next, every 400ms, with a timer, I check if there is something in the string[] variable and a I extract a part of strings to send it to a TASK to decompilate all these flows in background.
All the TASK work fine but to store the result of the decompilation of all these flows by the TASK, I have no another choice to use the PRINT command inside the TASK, by serialization/deserialisation, with the parent process.
So all that is good but with this methode I take between 7 to 12 microseconds to deserialise the informations from the TASK in the READ event in the parent process. In my case this is time I loose for the READ event of the UDPServer and I loose Network sequence.

I try to execute from the TASK a function in isolate Class in the application but not data are stored in any variables. I read again the documentation and all that is normal for a TASK. All the modifications made by the TASK process are not visible by the parent process.

My question is, could you add possibility to store data in common variables from any TASK (in my case an array of Classes) just to bypass the serialization/deserialization normal process between TASK and his parent ?

To have an idea, I receive more than 700 millions of Flows each day so this some microseconds are very important in the end.

Thank in advance
