In theory, the field should be marked volatile. In practice, it won't make any difference, since the method calls will force a reload of the value upon return and the compiler must assume that the value could have changed. The worst that could happen is that the thread never sees threadDone as true, and thus would never terminate - but, to my knowledge, there's never been any instances of that reported. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
