Threading question

[Nikolay Petrov]

How ti dynamicaly create threads and do things on based their status.

I know how to create thread using this method:
--
Dim Thread1 As New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf SomeSub)
Thread1.Start
--

Let's say that SomeSub do some things, calcs some data or something. How
would I know that it has finished it operation, so my other functions or
subs can work with processed data?


If I call the fallowing Sub multiple times, how would I know which exactly
thread is returning processed data?

Nikolay,

In my opinion is this documentation very good and covers all your questions

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...us/vbcn7/html/vaconThreadingInVisualBasic.asp

Your questions are in my opinion all answered when you use the readyevent of
your subthreads to pass your data (you have to create that ready event
yourself however see for that the documentation)

I hope this helps?

You can check the thread's 'IsAlive' property.

If you need a notification when a thread finishes its work, take a look at
the 'IAsyncResult' interface, there are samples in the documentation.
