New to threading in C#, can you make thread methods generic and what are the dangers?
- by ibarczewski
Hey all,
I'm just now starting to get into the idea of threading, and wanted to know if I could make this more abstract. Both foo and bar derive methods from a base class, so I'd like to pass in one or the other and be able to do work using a method that was derived. I'd also like to know how you properly name threads and the methods inside threads.
if (ChkFoo.Checked)
{
Thread fooThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(this.ThreadedFooMethod));
fooThread.Start();
}
if (ChkBar.Checked)
{
Thread barThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(this.ThreadedBarMethod));
barThread.Start();
}
.
.
.
public void ThreadedFooMethod()
{
Foo newFoo = new Foo();
//Do work on newFoo
}
public void ThreadedBarMethod()
{
Bar newBar = new Bar();
//Do similar work
}
Thanks all!
