[Lazarus] More thread questions.

[Paul Nicholls]

Hi Frank,
  AFAIK, a thread WILL execute immediately exiting the Create method unless you pass False to the suspended variable in the create method, and call Resume in the main thread later on.

I don't think resuming a thread will never do anything if the threads execute method has fallen through, but people can feel free to correct me on this :)

cheers,
Paul

  Can I take it that a thread will never execute until the Execute procedure is called, and if the Execute procedure is exited, it will not run again until called by the main thread? 

  i.e Resuming a thread which has exited will achieve nothing unless it is called within the scope of an existing Execute?
