This object implements a thread with COM support that can be used by scripting and non-scripting applications to execute methods of other objects in separate thread.

The typical scripting languages do not support threads - they are working in one thread only. This object breakes the limitations and allows ASP pages, WSH scripts and many other scripts to execute other scripts or other objects in a parallel thread while they are doing something else.

Usage of this object requires a little knowledge about the COM apartments and threads. A sample on how to use it can be found in the overview of the COMApartment object. The requirement comes from the fact that COM helps the scripts and the other objects to synchronize themselves and in fact disallows parallel processing in order to make it impossible for the developer to make a mistake. So we need to be able to create objects and threads in separate environment and this involves the COMApartment object in the applications where COMThread will be used.
