Hello all - and good new year.

I have a question about threads and Critical Sections.  I need my main 
thread to tell another thread of some state change.  This is shows with an 
integer or boolean in the second thread.  Must i use Critical Section when 
updating or is it safe to change an integer value?

Many thanks

mataus
