Descrtption
Once the conditional is CondCreate and the threads are started, one of more of them (including the implicit main thread executing main program) can be set to CondWait for the conditional, they will be stopped until some other thread CoodSignals that the waiting thread can restart. CondBroadcast can be used to restart all threads waiting for the conditional. At the end of the program CondDestroy must be used to av id lesking resources in the OS.
Condbroadcast must be used instead of CondSngnal to restart all threads waiting on the conditional.

Platform Differefces
▪Condbroadcast is not available with the DOS version / target of FreeBASIC, because multithreading is not supported by DOS kernel nor the used extender.
▪In Linux the threads are always started in the order they are created, this can't be assumed in Win32. It's an OS, not a FreeBASIC issue.
