Is there something in C# that is similar to Java's Thread.yield?
Currently I am using the 1.1 framework. 5 3632

It's been a while since I've worked with Java, but if I remember
correctly, it is giving up the current threads timeslice... If that's
the case:
Thread.Sleep(0) should do the trick.

You will want to call with a parameter of 1 instead of 0 if you want to
guarantee that the call will yield to some other thread (in particular,
a lower-priority thread).
Calling with 0 for the parameter will only allow another thread to run
if that thread is of equal or higher priority to the thread making the
call. If there's no such thread, the thread making the call will
continue to run, even if there are lower-priority threads ready and
waiting to run.
If that's not a concern, Thread.Sleep(0) should work fine.

hmm... i am not sure if it makes sense to yeild to a thread with lower
priority anyway?

It would depend on why you're yielding in the first place. But yes,
there are situations in which you would want to call Sleep(0) instead of
Sleep(1). It just depends on what behavior you want.
My point in replying was to make sure it's understood that Sleep(0) does
not guarantee that your thread will actually yield to some other thread.
If that's okay, or even desirable, then Sleep(0) is indeed what you'd
want to do.

Having trouble with my first forays into threads. Basically, the
threads don't seem to be working in parallel (or you might say are
blocking). I've boiled my problems to the following short code block
and ensuing output. Seems like the output should be all interleaved
and of course it's not. Running Python 2.2 from ActiveState on
Windows XP (also doesn't work on Windows 2000).
Thanks in advance!

Hi
I have following problem: I'm creating two threads who are performing some
tasks. When one thread finished I would like to restart her again (e.g. new
job). Following example demonstrates that. Problem is that when program is
started many threads are created (see output section), when only two should
be running at any time. Can you please help me to identify me where the
problem is?

Hi all,
I've got a server that handles a relatively high number of concurrent
transactions (on the magnitude of 1000's per second). Client
applications establish socket connections with the server. Data is
sent and received over these connections using the asynchronous model.
The server is currently in beta testing. Sporadically over the course
of the day, I'll observe the thread count on the process (via perfmon)
start climbing....

Hi all,
A question from someone on a website got me thinking about this, and I
wondered if anyone could explain this.
A System.Threading.Timer object is garbage collected if it has no references
to it. But what about threads? If I start a new thread that only does 1+1,
is it garbage collected after that? If so, do all threads get garbage
collected eventually that are 'done'? And if not, why not? Are there
references to the thread that...

Hi,
I start a new thread (previous one was "thread timing") because I have
isolated my problem.
It has nothing to do with calling unmanaged C++ code (I removed it in a
test application).
I have a thread "_itTaskThread" running.
The application is listening on a TCP port.
It accepts 2 connection from a client.
I simulate a crash on the client side (using "Debug->StopDebugging").

I have noticed how the thread I created just stops running. I have added
several exceptions to the thread
System.Threading.SynchronizationLockException
System.Threading.ThreadAbortException
System.Threading.ThreadInterruptedException
System.Threading.ThreadStateException
to see if I could get more information about why the thread stops running
but that code is never executed. Any ideas on how I can debug this?

My first thought was to call
WorkerThread.Suspend
but the help cautions against this (for good reason) because the caller has
no control over where the thread actually stops, and it might have a lock
pending, for example.
I want to be able to stop a thread temporarily, and then optionally resume
it or stop it for good.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
