How do I completely disable the max-execution-time for scripts in flex? The configurable max is 60 seconds, but I’m calling off to other interactive processes which will probably run much longer than that. Is there an easy way to disable the maximum script execution time across my entire application?
you can’t. and probably, that’s quite good. of course it’s a pitty that you can’t but when looking at the kind of things some people fabricate with the flash player, I am very happy.
For simplicity Adobe decided to promote a single threaded execution model that allows concurrent operations through asynchronous callbacks. sometimes this becomes anoying, verbous and even slower (performing a big calculation in a green thread simply takes longer than doing it directly). It’s more of a political choice, so I guess the best you can do is live with it.
or you could explain what exactly you’re up to, so I could propose a solution.
p.s.: there has been quite a lot of discussion going on about threads for background calculation. also, some people use seperate SWFs to perform calculation, or push it to pixel bender. also, you may wanna have a look at alchemy. it supports threading through relatively efficient continuation passing.
