Can I change the priority of "main"

[malaugh]

I have a main program that creates some threads, then goes into an event loop. The structure is: main() { CreateThread.... CreateThread..... while(1) { WaitForSingleObject(Main_Event) .... do some processing.... } } I would like to increase the priority of "main" so that when "Main_Event" is sent, the threads suspend while main loop is processing. Any idea how I can do this?

The main thread could use SuspendThread() to suspend the other threads when the Main_Event is signaled. Another possibly safer design is to make the threads able to stop themselves when signaled somehow and wait for an event that lets them resume. Mark
