Hi there:
From Delphi VCL Help:
======================================================
TThread.Terminate
Signals the thread to terminate by setting the Terminated property to True.
procedure Terminate;
Description
Terminate sets the thread’s Terminated property to True, signaling that the
thread should be terminated as soon as possible. Unlike the Windows API
TerminateThread, which forces the thread to terminate immediately, the
Terminate method merely requests that the thread terminate. This allows the
thread to perform any cleanup before it shuts down.
For Terminate to work,
the thread's Execute method and any methods that Execute calls should check
Terminated periodically and exit when it's True.
===================================================================
I would like to think that I don't understand this well. Does it mean that is
MY PROBLEM to check periodically for the value of the Terminated property?! I
thought this happenned like, placing a dynamic "Exit" on the Execute procedure
of the TThread instance. Am I right?
