AFAIR the TThread implementation makes use of the ThreadManager (it calls BeginThread and all that stuff). > This causes the following problem: If someone creates a > TThread, the constructor does not know if threading has been > initialized (via cthreads) since I can not add a "uses cthreads" > clause in the .inc file. > > Does anyone have any idea how I can resolve this? Initialize is it in the BeginThread subroutine of your ThreadManager as it is done for all other targets that need special initialization. There is a global variable System.IsMultThread for exactly that purpose, I think.
