Index Was Outside The Bounds Of The Array Error

[ed08724 6]

I have 1 thread that adds items to a table and another that searches the table for specific strings

often the search thread gives an error "index was outside the bounds of the array"

I assume this is because the thread adding a row is causing the table to be unavailable for a period of time.

I tried setting a variable before and then clearing it after the operation adding the row then checking that variable in the search thread before doing the search but it still gives the error.

 

add thread:

increment(#barow)

set(#tablelock,$true,"Global")

set table cell(&babooks,#barow,0,"")

set(#tablelock,$false,"Global")

 

 

search thread:

loop while(#tablelock) {

   wait(.1)

}

set(#findprice,$plugin function("TableCommands.dll", "$table search", &babooks, "processingprice123x", "Row Index"),"Global")

 

any ideas how to solve this? Thanks.

Are you sure while setting #findprice the "add thread" is modifying the table ?

May be the same principe with a variable #findingprice to block add thread while setting #findprice ?

not sure what you mean by first statement.

the second sounds like a good idea. I will test that.

Thanks,
