Multi-threading :
The multi-threading feature enable you to have more than one execution path for your application at a time. you are already aware of windows multitasking feature , which allows you to perform more then one task at the same time. In multitasking you can perform multiple task simultaneously , such as : writing an article using MS-Word , listening a song in windows media player ( WMP ) , and download a movie using Internet Download Manager. In the same way , you can use multithreding to execute different method of a program simultaneously.
for example :
MS-Word takes user input and display it on screen in one thread , while it continue to check spelling and grammatical mistakes in the second thread , and at the same time the thread save the document automatically at regular intervals.
showing the code of the multi-threading application :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
namespace multithreading.cs
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// creating more than one thread
Thread FirstThread = new Thread(FirstFunction);
Thread SecondThread = new Thread(SecondFunction);
Thread ThirdThread = new Thread(ThirdFunction);
Console.WriteLine("threading starting..");
// starting more than one thread in the application
FirstThread.Start();
SecondThread.Start();
ThirdThread.Start();
}
public static void FirstFunction()
{
for (int number = 1; number <= 5; number++)
{
Console.WriteLine(" first thread displays\t" + number);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
}
}
public static void SecondFunction()
{
for (int number = 1; number <= 5; number++)
{
Console.WriteLine(" second thread displays\t" + number);
Thread.Sleep(4000);
}
}
public static void ThirdFunction()
{
for (int number = 1; number <= 5; number++)
{
Console.WriteLine(" third thread displays\t" + number);
Thread.Sleep(6000);
} Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}
