<p>This can be done by simply calling <code>m.startComputation</code> at the beginning, and <code>m.endComputation</code> at the end of the function. You must add a pair of these calls for each asynchronous execution thread, unless the thread is already integrated.</p>
<p>For example, if you were to call a web service using <code>m.request</code>, you would not need to add more calls to <code>m.startComputation</code> / <code>m.endComputation</code> (you would still need the first pair in the event handler, though).</p>
<p>On the other hand, if you were to call a web service using jQuery, then you would be responsible for adding a <code>m.startComputation</code> call before the jQuery ajax call, and for adding a <code>m.endComputation</code> call at the end of the completion callback, in addition to the calls within the <code>change</code> event handler. Refer to the <a href="auto-redrawing.html"><code>auto-redrawing</code></a> guide for an example.</p>
<p>One important note about the <code>config</code> method is that you should avoid calling <code>m.redraw</code>, <code>m.startComputation</code> and <code>m.endComputation</code> in the <code>config</code> function&#39;s execution thread. (An execution thread is basically any amount of code that runs before other asynchronous threads start to run)</p>

<p>While Mithril technically does support this use case, relying on multiple redraw passes degrades performance and makes it possible to code yourself into an infinite execution loop situation, which is extremely difficult to debug.</p>
<p>The <code>dashboard</code> module in the example shows how a developer would consume the select2 component.</p>
<p>You should always document integration components so that others can find out what attribute parameters can be used to initialize the component.</p>
