  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    [13]: 651–652 [1]: 182–184 User code can define custom types that async methods can return through custom async method builders but this is an advanced and rare scenario. [17] Async methods that return void are intended for event handlers ; in most cases where a synchronous method would return void , returning Task instead is recommended ...

  3. Command pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_pattern

    A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the Command design pattern. [3]In the above UML class diagram, the Invoker class doesn't implement a request directly. Instead, Invoker refers to the Command interface to perform a request (command.execute()), which makes the Invoker independent of how the request is performed.

  4. HTTP persistent connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection

    Under HTTP 1.0, connections should always be closed by the server after sending the response. [1]Since at least late 1995, [2] developers of popular products (browsers, web servers, etc.) using HTTP/1.0, started to add an unofficial extension (to the protocol) named "keep-alive" in order to allow the reuse of a connection for multiple requests/responses.

  5. Asynchronous procedure call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_procedure_call

    APCs instead are made without waiting for prior calls to complete. For example, if some data are not ready (for example, a program waits for a user to reply), then stopping other activity on the thread is expensive, the thread has consumed memory and potentially other resources.

  6. Progress indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progress_indicator

    A progress indicator is an element of a command-line interface, a textual user interface, or a graphical user interface that is intended to inform the user that an operation is in progress, to reassure that the system is not hung or waiting for user input, and often to provide the user with an estimate of how far through a task the system has progressed.

  7. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_(computing)

    The context switch loads the process into the processor and changes the state to "running" while the previously "running" process is stored in a "waiting" state. If a process in the "running" state needs to wait for a resource (wait for user input or file to open, for example), it is assigned the "blocked" state. The process state is changed ...

  8. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busy_waiting

    In computer science and software engineering, busy-waiting, busy-looping or spinning is a technique in which a process repeatedly checks to see if a condition is true, such as whether keyboard input or a lock is available. Spinning can also be used to generate an arbitrary time delay, a technique that was necessary on systems that lacked a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:User_scripts/Guide

    If the user forgets the setting, you may get undeclared variable errors. If you want your user script to write and save configuration settings as it is running, you may want to have it write to its own .js file in the user's userspace. See twinkleoptions.js or redwarnConfig.js for examples.
