Re: Shared memory across threads

Question: If I use "lock", shall I use it in both the callback methods
on both threads?
Yes. Its the only safe way to alter or read a collection from more than 1
thread.

Why does your worker thread have to enumerate the whole list? Is it looking
for something in particular to act on? Instead of searching through the
whole list every time, would an event work better? You may find if you take
a step back and look at the problem again you don't have to enumerate the
whole collection repeatedly. It's difficult to be more specific without
knowing the details, of course.

The callback method is huge and long on thread two. If I use "lock" in
it, it'll block other thread for a long time.
