Class Methods

currentThread

+ (NSThread*) currentThread;

Returns the NSThread object corresponding to the current thread.

NB. In GNUstep the library internals use the GSCurrentThread() function as a more efficient mechanism for doing this job - so you cannot use a category to override this method and expect the library internals to use your implementation.

+ (void) detachNewThreadSelector: (SEL)aSelector toTarget:(id)aTarget withObject: (id)anArgument;

exit

+ (void) exit;

+ (BOOL) isMultiThreaded;

sleepUntilDate:

+ (void) sleepUntilDate: (NSDate*)aDate;
