Yes, like any other ICS component as well. Note that the ICS components create one or more hidden windows in order to receive event messages from winsock. ICS events will always trigger in the context of the thread where the components have been created. If you create the component in TThread.OnStart or TThread.OnExecute the events will fire in the context of the service thread which was fine. Define NOFORMS in the project options in order to get these windows created in a thread-safe manner. Usually running ICS in a worker thread requires a working message pump, that's not necessary in the service thread of TThread since there is one already pumping messages (ProcessRequests). > > 2.

By default ICS doesn't create threads, see above. -- Arno Garrels [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html > > Many thanks. > > David > > > > On 19/09/2007, Arno Garrels <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Francois PIETTE wrote: >>>> Any ideas what's causing this? >>> >>> No idea. >> >> I'm also not able to reproduce this in V6 D2007, strange. >> >> -- >> Arno Garrels [TeamICS] >> http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html >> >>> >>>> I'm unable to trace into the Pascal source for some reason. >>> >>> Add the component source code to your application project.
