What do you consider "alive"?

The last commit was April 27th, which isn't a real long time ago. The last issue closed was March 12th, and before that October 2021.

There some bugs in the github issues list for months

This library is widely used, author uses it in his own work so it is not dead.

 

If main developer is busy at the moment, others could chip in.

 

I think he has time to merge solid pull requests.

 

Also if the open bug iare no something that is deal breaker for you, just dive in.

That is not a sign of a dead product. Sometimes bugs are hard to reproduce, sometimes they are hard to fix or simply not relevant enough to be tackled. Don't forget that this is a free product. The maintainer may not have the time or will to work on it as if it were a well-paid full-time job.

Well a couple reported bugs are making the library unable. Anyway

I assume you mean this one? https://github.com/gabr42/OmniThreadLibrary/issues/173

 

Anyone know of a fix?

[Hallvard Vassbotn 3]

May be caused by scope issues? Looks like the interface references 

var
  FTask1: IOmniTimedTask;
  FTask2: IOmniTimedTask;

Are global variables and thus live longer than the internal window handles that Omni uses internally to post messages?

 

Clear the interface references (and thus free the underlying objects), or do something else in the app close down to stop / wait for the threads before the app goes down?

 

Sounds like programmer error.
