The pool is created as a tobject decendent I believe and it controls
access by a critical section, so it is thread safe.
From what I saw in the IBO source it's basicly a thread safe tlist.
The connections are not actually in any thread, the threads just
access them by pointer.
similar to how you can type cast a object as integer then send that
interger from a thread back to the main form and then typecast the
integer back to it's original type.
Trust me it works great and is thread safe. I sound like a beer
commercial :-)
