Threading... Where to start?

[Scott M.]

Any suggestions on a good place to begin learning how to work with threads
and multi-threaded applications?

Thanks.

When I had to deal with it, I just used Google and looked at a few articles,
and then I just ran it. It's not that hard, and you should be able to pick
it up quickly.

Yes, I understand, but I'm hoping to find a good resource that others here
would recommend, rather than hunt around in the dark and wonder if I'm not
taking the harder or longer route.

Hi Scott,

You may refer to the following MSDN documents to begin to learn threading
and multithreading:

'Threads and Threading'
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6kac2kdh.aspx

'Managed Threading Basics'
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hyz69czz.aspx

Hope this helps.
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Sincerely,
Linda Liu

Thanks, but I'm not sure I'm going to purchase a book that has just 3 pages
of usefull information.
