Summary

In this chapter, you learned how COM+ fits into the various Windows threading paradigms. You should understand which thread types, threading models, and synchronization objects are available to you, the programmer, and which one is best for your project. The next time you write a COM+ server or implement concurrency control, you'll have some added knowledge to justify your design.

We spent a good deal of time discussing concurrency issues, which should help you prevent and resolve the problems in your programming. These issues can be the most difficult to deal with in multithreaded applications.
