Re: [twsocket] Attach to a target thread?
So my question: is there any way to attach a client connection to another thread immediately, from the main thread? Probably, but I've said I've not done it myself, no need. Others may have done so, This is not always possible, at least without modifying TIcsWndControl. The problem is windows API cannot (AFAIK) be used to attach an existing windows (Message queue in fact) to an existing thread. One must recreate the window in the context of the thread. but I don't believe it necessary for your application. I share this opinion. I would let the client sockets attached to a single the thread (no necessarily the main thread) and handle all communication. Once a job has been received, then the data is passed to a worker thread, thru a queue, for processing. Probably a single queue serviced by a pool of thread is enough. -- francois.pie...@overbyte.be Embarcadero MVP http://www.overbyte.be http://francois-piette.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
[twsocket] RES: Attach to a target thread?
François I share this opinion. I would let the client sockets attached to a single the thread (no necessarily the main thread) and handle all communication. Once a job has been received, then the data is passed to a worker thread, thru a queue, for processing. Probably a single queue serviced by a pool of thread is enough. What are your thoughts in having all communication in a single thread? In my application we are starting to face some bottlenecks because all processing of incomming data is received by the main thread, what we did was to change the handle of some connections by detaching from main thread and attaching to another thread to process the messages. The connections that we did that are the ones that were causing the bottleneck. So, my question is, in order to ICS to scale better in a multi-core machine we should process the incoming Windows messages in different threads (Of course, in a VERY WELL designed architecture to avoid deadlocks and conflics) right?
