Syntax
VM_THREAD_HANDLE vm_thread_create(
    vm_thread_callback callback, 
    void* user_data, 
    VM_THREAD_PRIORITY priority
);
Description

Creates a thread. Limited by the system, vm_thread_create() can only create up to 10 threads. The caller of this function needs to pass the expected priority to the create. The value 1 indicates the highest priority, while the 255 is the lowest. The actual thread priority will be assigned by the system according to the following rule. 

 

  1. If the expected priority is equal or less than 128, the actual priority

assigned by the system will be higher than the main thread.

  1. If the expected priority is equal or greater than 129, the actual thread

priority assigned by the system will be lower than the main thread.

  1. If the expected priority is 0, the system will assign the default priority

to the thread, which is lower than the priority of the main thread.
