Hello David, Best is to start a new thread. Many modern email readers can sort on thread, so people not interested in this threaed will not see your message. Anyway I deleted followup so now it should be a new thread.
> Does ICS need to call a.pm? can i tell it not to, and let me do it? Ics need a working message pump. So if you have a program running in a closed loop as you have and enter once a while the message pump, then yes it will work. But do not call the message pump from within an event ! If you do you can be reentered. --- Rgds, Wilfried [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html http://www.mestdagh.biz Wednesday, February 22, 2006, 00:08, David Hooper wrote: > I have a similar AV issue relating to Application.ProcessMessages; > unfortunately, i absolutely need to call a.pm (because my app does other > work as well as TCP stuff) > and it is in a base class that I _can not change_ > Does ICS need to call a.pm? can i tell it not to, and let me do it? > David > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Surabaya" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "ICS support mailing" <[email protected]> > Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2006 2:59 AM > Subject: Re: [twsocket] Sending directly, not via Send Buffer >> Wow, my application really works much better after deleting all > application >> processmessages on my code... >> >> On 2/20/06, Francois Piette <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > >> > > so I can't call application.processmessages at all? >> > >> > Sure you can, but not from an event handler or you'll have problem >> > reentering events.
