Help on using Threads

[TompaD]

Hi!

I´m stuck with a problem with threads - I´ve done this before and it works but now it´s impossible....

It´s like this - I have a form with some checkboxes in,
and in my threadunit some statesment...like if checkbox1.checked = false then etc..etc...BUT I got the errormessage "Undeclared identifier : Chexkbox1.

I have in Form1 under implementation - uses MyThread;
And in MyThreads implementation - uses Form1;

Why don´t it work!!

Regards

Refer to checkbox, as Form1.Checkbox

Just a reminder:
If you are referencing components on the mainform (main-thread) from within (the execute procedure) in your (sub) thread,
you can only do so by calling the Synchronize method to do it for you ...

I´ve tried that to, but no luck....

fruNNik:

That sounds good, but I´m not sure exactly what you mean.
Could you give me an example?....(yes I´m a newbie on Delhpi)

Well you could type in MyThread.synchronize and then put the cursor on the synchronize part and hit F1.
A lot of info there that is not too hard to understand.
