Function Documentation

set_thread_name()

void Burger::Xbox360::set_thread_name ( const char * pName, uint32_t uThreadID )

extern

Set a thread's name for debugging.

---

Windows, and also the Xbox 360, use a MAGIC exception to notify the debugger that the currently executing thread has a name. This function will throw that exception so the debugger can capture the name.

Documentation on why this works.
