startLoop

@JvmStatic
fun startLoop(name: String, minLoopTime: Measure<Time>, loopTask: Runnable): Threads.Result<*>

Start a new thread task with the given infinite loop task. These tasks are not designed to return any results, although a Result will be returned to you if required.

This will auto-end when the task is interrupted.

Return

an unbounded Result for the task, note this will never naturally get a result

Parameters

the unique name of the task to access it later and to log as

minLoopTime

the minimum duration this loop should run at to save resources, will be slower if your loop takes longer than the minimum

loopTask

the infinite loop task to run on the new thread, contains no result as it is an infinite loop

@JvmStatic
fun startLoop(name: String, loopTask: Runnable): Threads.Result<*>

This will auto-end when the task is interrupted.
