bind file/multithread help

[bill]

my question was

"so when i run multiple threads at once of the same job its grabbing the same line from a file, would creating a initial pause in the job before proceeding to grab the lines from the file help prevent that? thanks"

supports reply was

"Take lines from list which is binded to file with deleting. Each thread will take different line"

can someone explain how this is done? a test job would be great or some further examples

i have a problem with this because i'm using get file list with directory action, then i use list processing-take first and put too variable, so how can i bind it to a file when the file is the first variable and not its file name?

 

[bill]

also i'm confused, should i bind it to the text file which i am grabbing the information for the list from or should i bind it to a new text file?

Both, 2 lists

Both, 2 lists

so bind to file that is setup to load from file to list1 and also bind to new text file?... then get line?

 

[bill]

can someone explain exactly what binding a file does? then maybe i'll get it

its the same as you set path to file in list settings.
but in case of using binding action you do this within project dinamicly.
