I was looking at threading support in the System unit and also in the TThread class.
According to the documentation at http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/closethread.html CloseThread must be called on any thread started with BeginThread. It must be called after the thread has ended (either by exiting the thread function or after calling EndThread). BUT Looking at the TThread class, which does indeed use BeginThread in TThread.SysCreate (tthread.inc), I see no corresponding call the CloseThread. I grepped the entire fpc source tree and found no references anywhere to any code which calls CloseThread. So what's the deal? Is the documentation wrong or is there something going on with TThread I'm not seeing?
