c# lock

[Nalaka]

Hi,
I need to code so that only one thread can do a piece of work... other
threads need not do the work if a thread is alredy doing the work.

something like this.....

if ( isAlreadyLocked )
{ return anotherThreadIsAlredyAtWork }

lock ( myObject )
{
// do the work
}


Any help is appreciated
Thanks
Nalaka
