I always correct spelling errors in works when I see them.
Yes, if there is a spelling error and the similar threads have already been created, the similar thread entry for that post will need to be rebuilt to get a more accurate match.
If there is a spelling error in the title, and the similar thread entry is created / calculated, then of course it will have poor matches. Changing the spelling is good, but the entry for similar threads in the DB entry for that thread will be "off" until the DB is rebuilt.
So best to always correct spelling, and then later when the DB is updated (similar threads rebuilt) the new matches will be much better.

Hello.
I have redesigned our "similar threads" for a more "clean style" in both the desktop view and the mobile view for the forum "show thread".
The new design is a simple straight-forward use of div elements and all the legacy table elements have been removed.
The result is a "clean"... (7 Replies)

Portable Threads Abstraction Classes(3) Coin Portable Threads Abstraction Classes(3)
NAME
Portable Threads Abstraction Classes -
Classes
class SbBarrier
The SbBarrier class implements the 'barrier' multi-thread synchronization technique.
A barrier is a synchronization mechanism that is used for blocking threads as they enter the barrier until a given number of threads are
blocked, at which point all the threads are released again. "
class SbCondVar
A class for synchronizing access to global variables.
Condition variables are used to protect global variables in an environment where multiple threads are running concurrently. "
class SbFifo
A class for managing a pointer first-in, first-out queue.
class SbMutex
A basic class for managing a mutex.
This class provides a portable framework around the mutex interface of the underlying native thread-handling toolkit. "
class SbThreadAutoLock
Simple convenience class for locking access to a function.
This class provides a simple convenience mechanism for automatically locking access to a function that is not re-entrant. "
class SbRWMutex
class SbStorage
The SbStorage class manages thread-local memory.
This class manages thread-local memory. When different threads access the memory an SbStorage object manages, they will receive different
memory blocks back. "
class SbTypedStorage< Type >
The SbTypedStorage class manages generic thread-local memory.
This class manages thread-local memory. When different threads access the memory an SbTypedStorage object manages, they will receive
different memory blocks back. "
class SbThread
A class for managing threads.
This class provides a portable framework around the tasks of instantiating, starting, stopping and joining threads. "
