Hi,
when the user creates a helper loop in a dqmh module, wouldn't it be a legit assumption that he - at a certain point - wants the helper loop to be started by calling a wake up helper loop function? Cause if so, wouldn't it be logical to create such a request when the helper loop is created?
Thx.

I think the developers are sticking to their principles here and see the creation of requests as a separate concern, keeping the functions from becoming too complex. But you can always create a feature request.

Also, how do you name the Wake Up request? Is it public or private? Which parameters do you send with it?
I don't think this can be generalised.

I'm not saying or suggesting that we must have this feature, this is why I did not submit this as a feature request. I merely asked if it makes sense. Maybe not.
With that said answering your questions does not seem too hard:
- How do you name a Wake up request: user input
- Is it public or private: user input
- Which parameters do you send with it: user input
basically a wake up helper loop request is a normal request which we have a dialog for. I dont know the code behind the dialog, but from the end user perspecitve I guess you could just display the same dialog when a helper loop is created and create the request (IF needed) as you create any other.
