问题
I'm developing a realtime software that I have some non real time functions.
Specs:
- Need do the method1 in real time;
- Need do the method2 each 60 minutes.
Should I use multithreading? Tasks?
Now I'm using timers but don't think that it's a good use for it.

It is generally a bad idea to have file processing start immediately a file appears in a folder. For example if 100 files arrive at once then you will end up with 100 threads all competing for the same physical resources, e.g. disk heads etc. The best approach, in my opinion, is to have a real-time, or at least as real time as can be achieved with .Net notification that a new file exists and then process these using a producer-consumer queue
Preferably using a thread safe collection such as ConcurrentQueue with the number of active long running, e.g. emailing threads in process at any time controlled by a synchronization mechanism such as SemaphoreSlim
Notification of newly created files in a directory can be easily achieved using the FileSystemWatcher class. Execution of processing in a time based manner should, ideally, use the Observer Pattern
I have created a simple application below to demonstrate these concepts which should help.
The application consists of a number of key classes
- The SingletonBase class which implements the Singleton Pattern for classes which should be only instantiated once, e.g. the filesystemwatcher class
- The FileSystemMonitor class which monitors a directory for new files being created and immediately notifies the processing queue that a new file exists. Naturally you could very easily modify this to begin immediate processing of a file, but as stated above, this is generally a bad idea
The FilesWorker class which handles the queue access and related task synchronization.
