don't know of straightforward way... since i'm new to multithreading...

but if you're using unix, maybe you could use select with a timeout value and a garbage file descriptor...

i'm not sure.. but if you call sleep within the thread maybe that will work too...

What do you mean by pause?

To just have it wait a while simply use the Sleep function.

To explicitly stop/resume it use CWinThread::SuspendThread/ResumeThread

another option would be to use WaitForSingleObject with a waitable timer.
