I cannot remember why, but a long time ago when learning Delphi 5 or 6, I
have learned not to call the destructor from within any method of the

has never been true before), I'd like to use this solution.
If it is the last thing you do in the method, there is no problem.
Note that "Free" itself is a method that calls Destroy (the actual
destructor), so the advice you got was strange to say the least :-)
Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing -- you think this code
should work:
type
TMyData = class
method: TMethodWithParameters;
a: whatever;
procedure Run;
end;
procedure TMyData.Run;
begin
method (a);
Self.Free;
end;
...
MyData := TMyData.Create;
MyData.a := ...;
MyData.method := @SomeMethodWithParameters;
TThread.Synchronize(NIL, @MyData.Run)
That should work.
Michael.
