Yes, I should have thought about this before posting. I checked the CRT source code, and you are correct. Every DLL that calls the C run-time startup code will do its own TlsAlloc. -- Tim Roberts, timr(a)probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.

Yes, the CRT issue applies to COM as well. COM developers are even less aware of this than Python developers. > So, > always follow the COM rules. Or just avoid COM...

Not if the OS and VFS are competently designed. In Linux all you need to do is this: mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /mount/point Apparently you've got to jump through all sorts of hoops using 3rd party software to do something analgous in MS Windows. -- Grant |
