Android Phones whit Dual Core

[mentalthink]

HI there!!!

In sometime I will buy a new Android Device (My Archos, don´t runs very well the 3D), and I have a dubt about the dual Core in Android, in iPhone and iPad, I think the Multithreading it´s automatically working using Autopause... but in android it´s equal...

This dubt it´s because some days ago, I read in some part of the forum, I think was in the treah about mutltrheading.... GLbasic only uses a Core, but I´m a bit confused whit this theme...

Thanks in advance for the help...

You'll be going into an area where few others here have trod...

I dont know what will happen with a multi-core device.  Performance should improve and I don't see any problems apart from the usual minimising problem...

Indeed, there is a threading library in your distribution somewhere.  You only need to include it to be able to use it.  Should you want to use it, read up on how and when to protect variables with mutexes as well.
