Thread.Interrupt is documented with "...If this thread is not currently blocked in a wait, sleep, or join state, it will be interrupted when it next begins to block.". You can use Thread.Interrupt but it is an abnormal termination technique and could lead to corrupted invariants, if you're not careful. But, as Joe Duffy says "...avoid Thread.Interrupt like the plague.", and "Thread interrupts are (almost) as evil as thread aborts" [1] [1] http://www.bluebytesoftware.com/blog/2007/08/23/ThreadInterruptsAreAlmostAs EvilAsThreadAborts.aspx =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
