Is it dangerous to use synchronize in a non-VCL application?

Question

If Delphi code was written with synchronize to serialize access to the main VCL thread, but this code then is used in a non-VCL application, will it synchronize with the mai

Answer 1

Since you are putting the Delphi code in a library for other apps to use, I would not advise using Synchronize() at all, since you thread has no concept of what is going on outside of itself. A better choice is to have the thread expose a callback event that the thread can call in its own context when needed, and then let the app provide a callback function handler that decides the best way to synchronize with the app's main thread as needed.
