How to get Thread exit notification

[Guest]

Hi,
I am starting a new threading to do some process. I want to get notified
when the thread does it's job and exits. After receiving the notification, I
want to refresh the form.

I am starting the thread like this:
<code>
System.Threading.ThreadStart tDelegate = new
System.Threading.ThreadStart(this.InitBasicServicesInfo);
this.m_threadProgress = new System.Threading.Thread(tDelegate);
this.m_threadProgress.IsBackground = true;
this.m_threadProgress.Name = "<InitBasicServicesInfo>";
this.m_threadProgress.Start();

</code>

Is there any event/notification message for this requirement.

Thanks

The easiest thing would be to make the new thread call back to the form
to say it had finished "on its way out". If you want to do this in a
few places, you could create your own wrapper which takes a
ThreadStart, and when it's asked to run, it runs the delegate and then
calls back.

Jon,
Is there an example of what you are describing or more detailed description
of handling threads somewhere?
