| Allegro CL version 6.2 Unrevised from 6.1 | |||||||||
Arguments: nil
Multiprocessing is not automatically started in the default Allegro CL environment.
On :os-threads implementations (only Windows in 5.0/5.0.1/6.0), this function will start multiprocessing, which is also started automatically the first time a process is started by process-reset, directly or indirectly (as by process-run-function). Note that scheduling in :os-threads implementations is done by the operating system so there is no scheduler process.
On non :os-threads implementations, there is a scheduler process and this function starts it. The scheduler is also started by calls to process-reset and process-run-function.
See multiprocessing.htm for general information on multiprocessing in Allegro CL.
