Re: Can't use TComponent in thread object?

I quickly destroyed the FTP object. That's why the exit was so fast.
I was hoping it would block with Resume() but I guess it didn't.

The whole point of Resume is that the call *doesn't* block. Threads would be useless if they blocked.

This means I need to be sure the FTP object doesn't leak after the
thread is destroyed.

The thread should create and destroy the FTP object itself.
