Description hennes.rohling 2007-10-19 11:02:16 UTC 
The OfficeIPCThread has to accept connections on the pipe endpoint. It has to
ensure that connections can be done at every time.

Actually it accepts a connection and makes a synchronous call from the same
thread to the application framework. If this calls resides in a connection
attempt to the pipe no accept will be done on the pipe endpoint and will result
in a deadlock.

OfficeIPCThread must create a second thread to dispatch data and make calls to
the application framework and ensure that the acceptor thread always accepts
connections on the pipe.

Refactoring of OfficeIPCThread is a huge task and can be dangerous for the whole
office. I wouldnt say we should do that for a 2.4 time frame. new target=3.0
