Hi,

[BTW, RFOp: Request For Opinion]

I am need third party code to ease threading headaches.

One thing I found, and I like its TActionList concept,
is 'Prof's Threading Components'

http://www.profscomponents.com/code/Components/Threading/screenshots.htm

The site makes all the correct noises in its overview
etc., but the version with the source is a whopping
299 USD.

That, coupled with the fact that the latest version (v1.21)
dates back to 2003, makes me uneasy.

Does anyone have experience with this 'Prof's Threading
Components'

Or, is/are there a similar alternative(s).

Cheers,
Adem

I've not had experiance with these components but I do think you have
misread the site.

The pricing is not 299USD but only 49 USD. The price you put is for ZAR

From the website
"(ZAR pricing is for South African customers only and includes VAT)"

PS: I am not affiliated with this site, just pointing this out.

Regards

I checked the URL you posted and the price is 49USD and 299ZAR whatever

ZAR currency is, and the pricing is effective May 1, 2006 according to
the website. This is of course from this URL
https://www.profscomponents.com/code/order/OrderOnline.aspx

ZAR is the South African Rand.

Yes. Pricing is 49 USD and 299 ZAR on the order page.

However, the pricing on the following page incorrectly describes the
prices as USD when it's actually ZAR

http://www.profscomponents.com/code/Components/Threading/Pricing.htm

Looks like a neat set of components though.

Hello,

I've also seen this before it read definitivly 299 USD before !

But for that price I think it's really worth buying ;)

Interestingly, for

https://www.profscomponents.com/code/order/OrderOnline.aspx

FireFox v1.5.0.3 reports that the site is fine --using strong
encryption.

Opera v9.00.8212, on the other hand, reports that it uses
outdated and short key something...

While, IE v6, perhaps expectedly, classifies it as 'secure'.

I am confused.

But, they are hardcore code, plus no collection stuff and no
help with synching with eachother or the UI --arent they?

If so, for once I'd like to tream 'me'self to something
easier Smile

I did. For some odd reason, TBMDThreadset and I just don't
seem to click.

What a stupid thing to do. How often does one check
prices anywhere but under the link that says 'Pricing'..

Hello,

after taking a deeper look at their examples and playing a little with it I
bought
the Threading-Components an I must say really fast delivery and really easy
to handle ,) and for a price of 49 US$ really timesaving.

The only thing I missing is D2006 Installer , but luckly I also had D7 so I
could
handle it.

Did you get the paid version within moments of purchase?? as Im tempted
to try it but like you Im on 2006 and they only go up to d7.. I dont
have d7 installed, and Im a little concerned that they havent updated
their product to at least install with the newer versions..
