New B- cannot seem to find out what thread is running

[Gzk2010]

Hi,

when this line runs....

string whatThread = Thread.CurrentThread.ToString();

I get instead of thread3 for the value of whatThread for example, System.Threading.Thread

How to really extract the thread?

 

[jmeckley]

you are really extracting the thread. by default ToString() returns the name of the system type. some object override ToString() to return meaningful information.

once you have the current thread, you can access any of the properties of that thread.
