[RESOLVED] worker thread to fire events in COM?

[asinro]

Hi..

There's a C++ COM-server (runs as a service), & a C# COM-client.
In COM server, an event is implemented as shown below..

 
//C++ header

__interface _ITestEvents 
{
	[id(1), helpstring("method MyEvent"), source] HRESULT MyEvent([in] SHORT size,   [in, satype(byte)] SAFEARRAY * byData);

}

The event is fired when needed..

 
//C++ source

{
	//...
	Long lVal = MyEvent(size, byData);
}

The C# client receives the event successfully ( lVal is zero ).

//C#

m_ComObj.MyEvent += new TestCom._ITestEvents_MyEventEventHandler(OnMyEvent);
///......
void OnMyEvent(short size, System.Array data)
{
      txtBox1.Text = "received event";
}

As a multi-threaded requirement is needed I’ve created a thread using "CreateThread". In the thread function if I fire the same event, the C# client doesn’t receive it ( lVal is always non-zero ).

Why I can’t use a worker thread to fire an event?
