Scenario A:
=========
Application 1:
while (!FLAG2 from Application2)
Sleep(1);
Perform the rest of the operation.
Application 2:
do something
Set FLAG2 // Allow Application1 to proceed
Scenario B:
=========
Application 1:
void FLAG2 hander()
{
....
}
main()
{
On FLAG2 Call FLAG2 handler
while (1) {
Perform the rest of the operation.
}
Application 2:
do something
Set FLAG2 // Allow Application1 to proceed
How to implement logic show above ie. how to wait a flag from another
