Terminating a socket listener thread in a loop

Hello, el***********@gmail.com!


you have to call Socket.Close() on receiveing socket and handle
SocketExeption exceptions that may be thrown
on Socket.ReceiveFrom(...)

ecHi, I have an application where a listener thread has a while loop
ecthat
ecjust calls Socket.ReceiveFrom over and over. When I close the app by
ecclickin on the X, the process doesn't die because there is still
ecthis
eclistener thread running. How do I terminate this thread as well?

ecThanks

if all you want is to aboart the thread when the application terminates call
..Abort() method on the thread.
This will raise an exception on your thread causing it to exit the loop
