After starting a thread using the Thread class,

Getting a ProcessThread collection from the current Process:

Process processInfo = Process.GetCurrentProcess();

Is there a way to determine which ProcessThread instance refers to the Thread you just started.

I tried correlating them comparing

Thread.ManagedThreadId and ProcessThread.Id but they appear to represent different things.

Just looking for a point in the right direction.

Thank you,

Randy

As far as I can test, it looks to me that the Thread.ManagedThreadId is the offset in the Process.Threads collection.

So to get the thread id of the current executing thread, you could use:

Process.GetCurrentProcess().Threads[Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId].Id )

Hope this helps, as I said, I did only a quick test :-)

From MSDN:

An operating-system ThreadId has no fixed relationship to a managed thread, because an unmanaged host can control the relationship between managed and unmanaged threads. Specifically, a sophisticated host can use the Fiber API to schedule many managed threads against the same operating system thread, or to move a managed thread among different operating system threads.

That being said, you can PInvoke to GetCurrentThreadId from your managed thread and you will find ProcessThread.Id
