BlockingCollection is a collection class which ensures thread-safety. Multiple threads can add and remove objects in BlockingCollection concurrently. It implements the producer-consumer pattern. In this pattern, there are two threads one is called producer and other is called consumer. Both threads share a common collection class to exchange data between them. …
MemberInfo class provides a quick look of all the members in a Type. Below is the same code to get all members of a Type. MemberInfo MemberType property MemberInfo provides a property name called MemberType which returns an enum of MemberTypes. MemberTypes specify the type of a Member whether it …
To build more responsive WPF UI, we have to use multiple threads that can work in the background and update the UI when the work completed. But background threads can’t access the objects created in the STA. Then how can we update the UI when the background threads completed their …
Reflection in C# is a big topic in itself. I’ll summarize a little list of what you can do with reflection. .NET assembly is a collection of types and its metadata. Metadata describes all the types and its structures like methods, fields, events, and properties. Metadata also defines all the attributes defined …
Assembly is the main unit in .NET applications. Assembly is a collection of types and its information. There are two types of assemblies: Both type of assemblies includes information about types and its members in its metadata. There are three ways to get Assembly instances: 1. Getting assembly instance from type …
A Type class is an important class in C# reflection. Type class represents class types, interface types, array types, value types, enum types, type parameters, generic type definitions, and open/closed generic types. Type class helps you to find properties, methods, events, fields, and constructors declared in a type. It also …
C# reflection Type class provides two methods for getting the constructors in any Type. By default, all the above methods returns public constructors of a Type. To get the private, protected, and static constructors you have to use other overloaded methods of GetConstructors() and GetConstructor() method in which we have …
One of the benefits of using multithreading in .NET is to improve the performance of our applications. We execute long running tasks in the background threads and make the UI thread idle to get the user’s inputs. We share resources between multiple threads such as memory. If multiple threads will try …
AutoResetEvent is one of the easy synchronization primitives in .NET threading synchronization. AutoResetEvent is used for send signals between two threads. Both threads share the same AutoResetEvent object. Thread can enter into a wait state by calling WaitOne() method of AutoResetEvent object. When second thread calls the Set() method it …
ManualResetEvent like AutoResetEvent is another synchronization techniques in .NET threading. ManualResetEvent is used for send signals between two or more threads. Multiple threads can enter into a waiting/blocking state by calling the WaitOne method on ManualResetEvent object. When controlling thread calls the Set method all the waiting threads are unblocked and free …
