this.BeginInvoke((ThreadStart)delegate() {
});
[Added by DaveyM69] This method is similar to my suggestion. The
ThreadStart
delegate is identical to
MethodInvoker
(void return - no parameters). In this situation I prefer
MethodInvoker
as that's what we're doing (invoking a method), not starting a thread.
The use of
BeginInvoke
will may* allow the calling thread to continue immediately even if the '
UI thread' cannot be updated whereas
Invoke
will block until the '
UI thread' is updated. This may or may not be desirable!
