Remarks

Note: A new instance of the System.Threading.Thread class is created using a constructor that takes a System.Threading.ThreadStart delegate as its only parameter. When Thread.Start is invoked and the thread begins executing, all of the methods in the invocation list of the specified delegate are invoked in the execution context of the thread. If a method in the invocation list receives an unhandled exception, the thread is terminated, but not the process that contains the thread.

Note: For an example that demonstrates creating a ThreadStart delegate, see Thread.Start.
