[Lazarus] Compiling LCL for ARM fails at lconvencoding.pas

[cc_ at freemail.hu]

Hi !

I have to use threads in a GUI app.
I have a class which is descendant of TThread and Synchronize is used  
to update all Visual controls.
However most of the functions are not within this class and it is  
difficult to broadcast the current TThread var.

I would like to call TThread.Synchronize from anywhere but it requires  
a value for AThread :
class procedure Synchronize(AThread: TThread; AMethod: TThreadMethod);

May be `threadvar` could help me but I don't know if it is a good idea  
and if it is valid :


type
   TMyThread = class(TThread)
   protected
      procedure Execute;override;
      [...]
   end;

threadvar
   CurrentThread: TMyThread;

implementation

procedure TMyThread.Execute;
begin
   CurrentThread := Self;
   while not Terminated do
   begin
     // Loop
   end;
end;


Any advice ?
