I have recently completed the slides for the ‘C# Fundamentals’ course’s ‘Threads’ topic. This course is available for free at www.abelski.com.
Comparing the Threading support I found in C# with the one I know in Java, more than a few similarities can be found. Nevertheless, the effort to provide improved threading capabilities in C# cannot be ignored.
You can find the new slides available at http://www.abelski.com/courses/csharp/threads.pdf.
Apart of the slides themselves, I have also completed to prepare a series of short video clips that explain the various threading capabilities C# supports. Those video clips are available as part of the ‘C# Fundamentals’ course, which you can find for free at www.abelski.com. These video clips include the following ones.
Simple Thread
Threads Pool
Background & Foreground Threads
Asynchronous Delegates
Mutex Demo
Semaphore Demo
Timer Demo
Event Wait Handle Demo
ManualResetEvent Demo
Threads Signaling Demo
BackgroundWorker Demo
Local Storage Demo
Monitor Wait & Pulse Demo
