Syntax
void vm_thread_sleep(
    VMUINT32 time_out
);
Description

Makes a thread sleep for a number of milliseconds. It should only be used in the threads spawned from vm_thread_create(). Note, putting a thread into the sleep for too long could potentially cause unexpected behavior. If the thread, which is responsible for reading from a message queue, was put into sleep for too long, for example, the message queue might overflow because of too many unprocessed messages.

Parameters
Parameters 
Description 
VMUINT32 time_out

VMINT vm_sub_thread_proc(VM_THREAD_HANDLE thread_handle, void* user_data)
{
     // Do something here.
     vm_thread_sleep(3000); // Sleeps for 3,000 milliseconds.
