I've just recently read somewhere reliable that the COM/ActiveX VCL library
in Delphi 4 is now thread safe - obviously implying that it was not the case
under Delphi 3. I can't unfortunately remember the source though :-(

Subject: [DUG]: VCL COM Subsytem Thread Safety.
Does anybody know if the VCL COM Subsystem is thread safe?? OR if the Delphi
Exception handling is threadsafe (or not)?
Why ask?
If I create COM controls marked as "Both" or even "Free" will the standard
VCL COM stuff handle the multiple threads?
FYI: I found that to have IIS/ASP work with a OLE/COM Object and store the
object reference in the ASP application object, that I had to aggregate the
COM Free Threaded Marshaler object.
