Thread.Priority Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value indicating the scheduling priority of a thread.

public:
 property System::Threading::ThreadPriority Priority { System::Threading::ThreadPriority get(); void set(System::Threading::ThreadPriority value); };
public System.Threading.ThreadPriority Priority { get; set; }
member this.Priority : System.Threading.ThreadPriority with get, set
Public Property Priority As ThreadPriority

Property Value

One of the ThreadPriority values. The default value is Normal.

Exceptions

The thread has reached a final state, such as Aborted.

The value specified for a set operation is not a valid ThreadPriority value.

Examples

The following example shows the result of changing the priority of a thread. Three threads are created, the priority of one thread is set to ThreadPriority.BelowNormal, and the priority of a second is set to ThreadPriority.AboveNormal. Each thread increments a variable in a while loop and runs for a set time.

Remarks

A thread can be assigned any one of the following priority ThreadPriority values:

  • Highest

  • AboveNormal

  • Normal

  • BelowNormal

  • Lowest

Operating systems are not required to honor the priority of a thread.
