Threading: does c# have an equivalent of the Java Runnable interface?

Question

Does c# have an equivalent of the Java Runnable interface?

If not how could this be implemented or is it simply not needed?

thanks.

Answer 1

C# uses the ThreadStart delegate instead of Java's Runnable style.

public class Foo 
{

   public void DoStuff()
   {
      while (true)
      {
         // do some stuff
      }
   }
};

public class Bar
{
    public static int Main()
    {   
        Foo foo = new Foo();
        // create a ThreadStart delegate and pass in the method that will run 
        // (similar to run on Java's Runnable)
        Thread thread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(foo.DoStuff));
        thread.Start();
    }
}
