Hi, I am new to visad but am enjoying using it, except for a lack of
understanding in the thread model.
I am doing some offscreen image creation using DisplayImpl.getImage(true),
have added data for a number of FlatFields. The images come out great.
I should point out that I am using the same DisplayImpls over and over for
all images. I'm using just 2D rendering.
However, when I want to shutdown the visad part of my app, sometimes it
hangs. I'm doing this:
displayImplA.destroy();
displayImplB.destroy();
ActionImpl.stopThreadPool();
sometimes these three lines return OK. Sometimes I get an exception
mentioning a task queue (??) and sometimes it just hangs. This is bad,
since I run this job as a cron and the app must exit after it has done.
Any help very gratefully appreciated. I apologise of this is FAQ, I
couldn't locate it. On a broader note, how many threads should I expect
if using two DisplayImpls.
Stuart
