Apartment之COM中的线程模型

An apartment is a set of threading rules sharedby a group of objects。The three types of apartments aresingle-threaded apartments (STAs), neutral apartments (NAs), and multithreadedapartments (MTAs).

 

每一个STA中只能由一个线程，MTA中可以有多个线程。一个process可以有多个STA, 但只能有一个MTA, 一个NA。

组件中的对象支持的线程模型与Apartment之间的关系：

ThreadingModel Values	Description
Not present	Single-threaded legacy component that runs only in the main STA
Apartment	STA
Neutral	NA
Free	MTA
Both	Supports the STA, NA, and MTA models

现在我们知道的信息是组件中对象支持的threading model，这个可以通过注册表中的InprocServer32键值获取。
