Unity-ThreadTask

Simple threaded tasks for Unity (5.x) Runs a task in a different thread, then sends the data back to a callback method on the main thread when complete.

I use it to generate Marching Cube terrain in the background.

How to use

public ThreadTask threadTask;

void Awake()
{
	threadTask = gameObject.AddComponent<ThreadTask>();
	threadTask.StartTask(CalculateSomeData, DoTaskWithResult, data);
}

object CalculateSomeData(object o)
{
	Data data = (Data)o;
	
	// RUNNING ON DIFFERENT THREAD
	// do heavy calculation here on data...
	// cannot use Unity functions here
}

void DoTaskWithResult(object o)
{
	Data data = (Data)o;

	// RUNNING ON MAIN THREAD
	// do calculation here on data...
	// can use Unity functions here
}
