weird output after using yield(get_tree().create_timer(10.0), "timeout")

[cenullum]

the example project here: Test.zip drag and drop test5.lua in the project files

[cenullum]

I was actually testing another bug on array and dictionary. even you can see

func test_w_dict(lua,file_name):
    lua_cores_dict[file_name]=lua
    lua_cores_dict[file_name].kill_all()
    lua_cores_dict.clear()

func test_w_array(lua):
    lua_cores_array.append(lua)
    for lua in lua_cores_array:
        lua.kill_all()
    lua_cores_array.clear()

I couldn't find any related part about table on the project but I get these errors sometimes with the same lua file. I thought it was about array or dictionary. maybe because of memory leak

So at least with the first issue, destroying the lua object while code is still running without running kill_all first will probably always result in a crash. If possible I would try to avoid destroying the lua object at all while code is being executed. Instead of having modders write infinite loops maybe just have update functions that get called. I will still be looking into the issue further.

[cenullum]

yes though you're right no one will need an infinite loop if it never blocks or sleeps. I also tried it with process func, the program closes after 10 seconds as expectly. I was expecting the same thing on infinite loop

value=0
floored_value=0

function process(delta)
    value=value+delta

    if floored_value ~= math.floor(value) then
    floored_value= math.floor(value)
    log(floored_value)
    end

end

    get_tree().connect("files_dropped", self, "_files_dropped")

    output("started to destroy luas")
    for key in lua_cores_dict.keys():
        output(key)
        lua_cores_dict[key].kill_all()
    lua_cores_dict.clear()
    output("finished the destroying luas")

func _files_dropped(files, screen):
    #burdaki files string array
    output(files)
    if files[0].get_extension() =="lua":

        var lua = Lua.new()
        lua_cores_dict[files[0]]=lua
        lua.set_threaded(true)
        lua.expose_function(self, "output", "log")
        lua.do_file(files[0],true , self,"output")
        yield(get_tree().create_timer(10.0), "timeout")
        destroy_lua_dict()

        #test_w_array(lua)

func _process(delta):
    for key in lua_cores_dict.keys():
        if( lua_cores_dict[key].lua_function_exists("process") ):
            lua_cores_dict[key].call_function( "process", [delta])

    print(_log)

Threading will no longer be done by the module but will be done by the user them selfs if the wish. If this is till a issue using GDScript threads feel free to re open the issue.
