iPhone NSThread Help

I'm having some problems with my thread. Currently, the view brought up by showInstructions is disabled until the thread is done... how can I make it interactive while the thread is going on?

Thanks in advance!

 [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(loadEverything) withObject:self waitUntilDone:YES];


    -(void)loadEverything {    
        NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

        [self performSelector:@selector(showInstructions)];
        [self performSelector:@selector(loadStats)];
        [s开发者_StackOverflowelf performSelector:@selector(animate_sideBTN)];
        [self performSelector:@selector(loadNIBs)];
        [self performSelector:@selector(incrementStats)];

        [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(loadMap) toTarget:self withObject:nil];

        [[self.view viewWithTag: 123] removeFromSuperview];
        [pool drain];
        }

Please try calling -(void)loadEverything in "performSelectorOnMainThread" and from that call [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:] for operation which are not affecting UI components and [self performSelector] for which are affecting UI components.

I think you should learn some GCD and do the same code inside a block. Or use an NSOperation… Avoid threads if possible.
