Hi folks,

I detected a small leak in the TThread class. I made a simple test and I
sending in attached (or http://pastebin.com/aWNuHyDQ). To reproduce the
leak, just open and close the demo.
That's probably because the thread has no chance to run (you create it
suspended and never resume it).
If you create it with suspended=false or resume it right after creating it,
there's no leak.

Even that, I consider this a bug, don't you?

I'm not sure it is: when I create a thread is because I need it to run, if it doesn't have to run I simply don't create it. In the constructor I usually delay starting the thread until all members are correctly initialized (i.e. "inherited create(true); foo:=Tfoo.create; resume"), but afterwards it has to run. If you forget to, say, free objects in a thread, it will cause a memory leak but it's not a bug, this case is analogous: you create a thread but forget to start it.

Bye
