a question on ThreadAbortException

[huangyi12]

according to my experience, the call of Abort() will make a thread
throw ThreadAbortException immediately no matter whether the thread is
alertable state or not.
i know Abort() will queue a APC,
and i also know that thread must be alertable state before handle APC
queue.
now i am confused, how Abort() can cause a thread throw
ThreadAbortException even when "while(true) ; " running.

Did you do some magic to managed code ?
I want to know how you do that ?

My project need to run and schedule many scripts written by user (and
user can write code like "while(true) ;"), because the number of
scripts is huge, so i use a single thread running all the scripts.so i
need a function just like Abort() to interrupt the current script (if
time out) and go on to run next script, but i don't know how to
implement that in c/c++.

can you tell me? thank you so much.

You'll learn everything about Abort() and why you should not use it here:

i want to know the implementation of Thread.Abort()
thread must be alertable state before handle APC queue,
how can Thread.Abort() make the thread throw exception an any time?

i try to read the source code of cli, but i found it hart to read.
