Multithreading exercise
In computing theory, job execution is programmatically spanned using the control named thread. Each thread defines a unique flow of control, but it is controlled by the main program. If you notice that the application is a time-consuming complicated independent process, it is advisable to leverage thread programming for the efficient execution. Independent is the key for parallelism.
In .NET programming, threads are created by extending Thread
class of System.Threading
library. On invoking Start()
method of the extended Thread
class, the system kick starts the child thread execution. The life cycle of a thread starts when an object of the System.Threading.Thread
class is created and ends when the thread is terminated or completes execution.
By design, .NET Core supports multithreaded operations in the following two ways:
- Own threads with
ThreadStart
delegates - Using ThreadPool framework class
As best practice, it is highly recommended to create a new thread manually...
