Name
ThreadPriority
Synopsis
This enumeration encapsulates the
various thread priorities.
Threads are scheduled to be executed based on their priority; they
default to Normal
priority. The runtime can also
update thread priorities if a program window is moved between the
foreground and background. This is done automatically when you create
windowed applications.
public enum ThreadPriority { Lowest = 0, BelowNormal = 1, Normal = 2, AboveNormal = 3, Highest = 4 }
