async timer thread priority

I've created an async timer which runs on a separate thread from my understanding of things.  (and all and any aync timers created by the process are on this this same, separate, async timer thread).

 

What priority is this thread?  Normal?  

 

Thanks to anyone who knows.

It should be normal priority, though i'm not 100% positive.

Checked the help for NewAzyncTimer

NewAsyncTimer

 

And, i was incorrect...the NewAsyncTimer is set to highest priority thread. Inorder to specify a different priority you can use  NewAsyncTimerWithPriority.

Thank you, and I am feeling a bit stupid as that now that you mention it I do remember seeing that other call to set the priority.

You're welcome. Watch out though, the set priority function only works on Real Time targets.
