    public 
procedure StartServer;

procedure StartServer(AThreaded: Boolean);

    Description

    StartServer starts the server side of the communication channel. It is called automatically when the Active property is set to True. It creates the internal communication object (a TIPCServerComm descendent) and activates the communication channel.

    The aThreaded property can be used to force or disable threaded mode: in threaded mode, a thread is started that automatically checks for new messages and puts them on a queue. If the argument is not specified, then the property TSimpleIPCServer.Threaded is examined to know whether to start in threaded mode or not.

    After this method was called, clients can connect and send messages.

    Prior to calling this method, the ServerID property must be set.

    Errors

    If an error occurs a EIPCError exception may be raised.
