How does static code run with multiple threads?

Question

I was reading Threading from within a class with static and non-static methods and I am in a similar situation.

I have a static method that pulls data from a resourc

Answer 1

If the static method is written to be thread safe, then it can be called from any thread or even passed to a thread pool.

You have to keep in mind - .NET objects don't live on threads (with the exception of structs located on a thread's stack) - paths of execution do. So, if a thread can access an instance of an object it can call an instance method. Any thread can call a static method because it all needs to know about is the type of the object.
