Considering detaching threads exiting callbacks #118

Closed p0nce closed 8 years ago

p0nce commented 8 years ago

The benefit would be that they won't be able to be stopped by the GC later. and solving #110 for Cubase

The downside is the calls to thread_attachThis() / thread_detachThis() which is an overhead.

Anyway doing a RAII struct for callbacks would be very helpful because right now it's a bit all over the place in dplug:au, dplug:vst and dplug:window, each callback being different. But some callbacks are "dominated" by others too (runtime is already initialized), or don't need thread attachment.

OK, looks way better now. But detaching the threads uncovers another bug :)
