From the same application(as long you don't explicitly load more than
one instance of the DLL), there's no problem, since embedded is
practically, if I'm not mistaken, Superserver in a DLL. But, only for
single application/user usage. And, I don't think it would work for
multiple instances(not threads but separate processes) of the same
application.
