Explain the ThreadSwitchWithDelay Function used in Netware

ThreadSwitchWithDelay( )  

This command is used when threads are waiting for an event or resource but don't want to use semaphores for that  access. The command will tell NetWare to schedule this thread on the temporarily handicapped list. Threads on this list will run only after a system-configurable amount of Run-List threads have executed. In our above example, we could replace the delay ( ) procedure with ThreadSwitchWithDelay( ).
