Sleeping thread and callback delegate

I have a thread that has a delegate function which will be called when
another process exits. This thread went to sleep, the process exits and is
supposed to call the delegate, but it did not happen. When the thread wake
up, the function is not called either.

The question is, will a thread ignore all the callback when it is sleeping?

How are you trying to make the callback in the thread? Could you post a
short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.

Everywhere in documentation there are recommendations to use threads from thread pooling for relatively short tasks. As I understand, fetching a page or multiple pages (sometimes up to 50 but not tipical) from the Internet and doing some processing on those would be considered to be a big/long task for a thread from a pool. In our app it is possible to break the task into some small ones (thread per fetch and processing thereafter or event...

I'm using async delegate calls. I would like to re-enter my initial thread after the callback. (I'm not using UI controls, so Control.Invoke is not the solution.) How can I manually implement behavior like Control.Invoke? How can I re-enter my initial thread? Any suggestions? Thanks! Mountain I already searched Google Groups and found something on this topic, but no solution:...

Hi guys. I have two threads: a main thread and a background thread. Lots of stuff happens in the background thread that means I have to update several (lots) of controls on a form. It is quite tiresome to have to write code to call MyControl.Invoke for each control on the form, along with the delegates that are required for each. Is there a better way to do this? What I mean is, if I could marshal the

Hello All, Using the following delegate, and attempting to update the UI. There is no clear examples on how to pass multiple parameters though to the dispatcher. I keep receiving an exception (shown below). The code works if you invoke a method that only has one parameter, however it should work with multiple parameters. Maybe I am missing something simple. -------------- CODE FOLLOWS --------------

ok This is my main. Pretty much it goes through each category and starts up 4 worker threads that then ask for groups to gether from. My problem is that when the thread gets done it keeps the mysql connections open so I end up with quite a few at the end. Is there a different way that I should do this? class Program { static string categories = { "emulation" , "audio" , "console" , "anime" , "xxx" , "tv" , "pictures" , "video" };

I'm a C# developer and I'm new to Python. I would like to know if the concept of Asynchronous call-backs exists in Python. Basically what I mean is that I dispatch a thread and when the thread completes it invokes a method from the calling thread. Sort event driven concept with threads. Thanks. Ed Gomez

All, Not sure if this is possible or not - I've created a class which performs an asynchronous operation and provides notification when the operation is complete. I'd like the notification to be performed on the same thread thread that instantiated the class. One way to do this is to pass an ISynchronizeInvoke into the class and use it to synchronize the callback. In the constructor of the class, could I take note of the current thread...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: 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,...
