multithreading - c# thread method

Question

If I have a

public void Method(int m)
{
  ...
}

how can I create a thread to this method?

Thread t = new Thread((Method));

t.Start(m);

is not working.

Answer 1

You can do this using a lambda expression. The C# compiler automatically creates the ThreadStart delegate behind the scenes.

Thread t = new Thread(() => Method(m));
t.Start();

Note that if you change m later in your code, the changes will propagate into the thread if it hasn't entered Method yet. If this is a problem, you should make a copy of m.
