I am using to check the condition of a thread with if(Thread.IsAlive). A form is running in this thread. At times during execution, even though the form remains open, the call to Thread.IsAlive seems to be evaluating to false. I thought to perform the same check with if(Thread.ThreadState==ThreadState.Running). Is it the right way to do? If not, what is the possible work around?
msdn Thread.IsAlive Property true if this thread has been started and has not terminated normally or aborted; otherwise, false.
msdn Thread.ThreadState
- Running
The thread has been started, it is not blocked, and there is no pending ThreadAbortException. - StopRequested
- SuspendRequested
- Background
- Unstarted
- WaitSleepJoin
- Suspended
- AbortRequested
I think now it's clear Running is not the same as IsAlive
