Parallel API and function arguments

okay so i have been messing around with the parallel api or however its spelt so i expiremted an i came across the issue of not being to use arguements any idea how to??

Wrap the function call in a function.

function() read(*) end

okay uhhm dont get it..

i tried

parallel.waitForAll(task1(arg here),task2(arg here))

You have to pass the API function pointers. It then executes the functions they point to. What you're doing is calling your functions, and then attempting to pass whatever they return to the API.

Try it like this:

local function wrapper1()
  task1(arg here)
end

local function wrapper2()
  task2(arg here)
end

parallel.waitForAll(wrapper1, wrapper2)  --# Note the lack of brackets after wrapper1 / wrapper2

okay thanks

what KingofGamesYami did was define an anonymous function which you would use like so:

 parallel.waitForAll(function() read(*) end, someOtherFunctionPointer)
  --# someOtherFunctionPointer could also be another anonymous function
