I need to pass a delegate with a parameter to the thread manager, however, the threadmanager does not take a pure delegate and requires MicroFour.StrataFrame.Threading.ThreadManager.Delegate_ExecutionMethod which does not allow parameters. Is there anyway to get around this?





Public Delegate Sub GetData(ByVal passedInt As Integer)

Dim myMethod As MicroFour.StrataFrame.Threading.ThreadManager.Delegate_ExecutionMethod

myMethod = AddressOf GetDataSub



This obviously does not work since :



Method 'Public Sub GetDataSub(passedInt As Integer)' does not have the same signature as delegate 'Delegate Sub Delegate_ExecutionMethod()'

This is a topic that we cover in depth in the training class.  There is a lot of detail that surrounds threading, events, and delegates.  As for your question, you basically understand it.  You would have to create a unique background worker thread for each threaded method that you wanted to call.  Using the ThreadManager, you can fire off as many threads as you need through a single control while managing the events associated with the ThreadManager in a thread-safe manner.
