RE: max number of threads

hello,
i think that the problem is not related with the number but with what you do
inside each thread

best regards,

Assunto: [delphi-en] max number of threads

Hello

Is there a maximum number of threads that one could use within one single
appl? I encountered some problems when I created a lot of threads (about 25).

I solved my problems already by working without a thread, but wondered if
there is any limitation within delphi appl or even within the Windows OS.

Regards

Andries

That's not very many threads, as far as the OS is concerned. It's
probably more than you need, though.

Two articles to read:

Does Windows have a limit of 2000 threads per process?

On the unanswerability of the maximum number of user interface objects a
