How to use handler method at another thread on .Net 4.0

Good day!

My code:

OnMyEvent+=MyTestFunc;


void MyTestFunc(Object sende,SomeClass c)

 ... do work;
}

Please,tell me how to execute MyTestFunc at another thread.

The simplest version for a fire and forget method (you don't need any return value) is to use the Thread Pool : ThreadPool.QueueUsersWorkItem :

ThreadPool.QueueUsersWorkItem(_ => MyTestFunc(arg1, arg2));

(Use _ because a state object will be passed, but you don't need it.) If you want to do this for an event handler:

OnMyEvent += (x, y) => {
  ThreadPool.QueueUsersWorkItem(_ => MyTestFunc(x, y));
};
