Dear Sir,

I am developing a multithreaded application that has to instantiate each
thread an active X control.

I am using this approach:

__fastcall GateWayThread::GateWayThread(bool CreateSuspended)
        : TThread(CreateSuspended)
{
        //TFsievent new aux;
        Fsievent1 = new TFsievent(0); // Active X control

when compiling I am getting the following error:

[C++ Error] UnitThread.cpp(28): E2015 Ambiguity between '_fastcall
Fsieventlib_tlb::TFsievent::TFsievent(Classes::TComponent *)' and '_fastcall
Fsieventlib_tlb::TFsievent::TFsievent(void *)'.

Is this the proper way to instantiate an imported Active X control?.

Any help is appretiate!!!!

Oops. The problem here is that the control expects its constructor
to be passed a pointer to a TComponent. In Delphi, you can pass it
nil, and all will work, but the type safety in the BCB compiler complains.

You need to do:

FSievent1 = new TFSievent(<reinterpret_cast>(TComponent*)0);
