Having problems with TCPSession

[Jon Wilson]

I have written the code below, however, this is the problem I have. When 
I telnet at the same port and ip as the server, It constructs a 
ThreadOut object and both
"Creating"
and
"Created"
print
as well as "Constructor"
However, the tread never starts, The run() is never invoked despite a 
call to detach(). Nothing happens! If I call run() in the constructor, 
then it runs, but obviously finalize doesn't and this defeats the entire 
point of having threads! Have I missed something? I am running on MingW 
with gcc3.2 on winXP.
Many Thanks.
