Syntax

WAIT(OPT nosleep=0 as INT)

Description

Waits for a window event.

Parameters

nosleep - Optional sleep parameter.

Return value

None

Remarks

Using nosleep = 1 checks for messages and returns immediately if none are available. WAIT will normally check for messages and then put the process in a sleep state until a message is available.

WAIT should only be used in special circumstances where you need more control of when messages are processed.
