Re: ThreadStart method problem?

#1

Chances are that the thread starts but fails to complete. Exceptions
occuring in a thread are not propagated back to the caller unless explicitly
told to do so. Put a break point in DoListen and step thru it to see what
the problem is.

Hi,

I am using using ThreadStart to create three threads that run a worker
process, and then call Start on the threads. These 2 statemetns are
executed properly but the worked method is not being started!.

{
Thread[] listenerThreads;
WorkerClass[] listener;

..... more initialisation code here

listenerThreads[i]=new Thread(new ThreadStart(listeners[i].DoListen)); -
(1)
listenerThreads[i].Start(); -> (2)
string isAlive = listenerThreads[i].IsAlive.ToString(); -> (3)
string ThreadState = listenerThreads[i].ThreadState.ToString(); -> (4)
....
}

all 1-4 statements are executed with out any exception but the thred does
not get startedd (the DoListen() is never called since some print
statements in this functions are not executed). The isAlive is 'true' and
ThreadState is 'Unstarted'.

I a running this app on a dual processor machine. The same code base and
app was running properly on other production servers but when installed on
a new server the Dolisten() method never gets invoked.

Any clues what can be the problem?

Thanks a zillion in adv,
Ram.
