IdScheduler

TIdScheduler is a TIdBaseComponent descendant that represents the base class used for schedulers in TIdTCPServer and descendant classes. 

TIdScheduler introduces an abstract representation for executable tasks for client connections to a multi-threaded TCP server. This abstraction, called a Yarn, allows the use either threads or fibers for execution of client connections to the server. Each client connection, or Yarn, represents a task that is managed by the Scheduler for the server. 

There are basically two types of Schedulers available for TIdTCPServer: Thread-based and Fiber-based. Each is designed to work with a specific type of executable task (or Yarn) that represents the client connections. 

TIdScheduler specifies (and in some cases - implements) methods that handle creation, execution, and termination of tasks for client connections. Applications must use an instance of a descendant class (like TIdSchedulerOfThreadDefault, TIdSchedulerOfThreadPool, or TIdSchedulerOfFiber) that implements the mechanism for managing the TIdYarn for the executable task. 

Resources required for the ActiveYarns property are allocated during intialization of the component instance.
