How to use the sleep method in C#?
The sleep method of the thread is used to pause the thread for a specific period.
If you want to set sleep for some seconds, then use it like the following code snippet −
int sleepfor = 2000; Thread.Sleep(sleepfor);
You can try to run the following code to implement the sleep method of the thread −
Example
using System;
using System.Threading;
namespace MyApplication {
class ThreadCreationProgram {
public static void CallToChildThread() {
Console.WriteLine("Child thread starts");
int sleepfor = 2000;
Console.WriteLine("Child Thread Paused for {0} seconds", sleepfor / 1000);
Thread.Sleep(sleepfor);
Console.WriteLine("Child thread resumes");
}
static void Main(string[] args) {
ThreadStart childref = new ThreadStart(CallToChildThread);
Console.WriteLine("In Main: Creating the Child thread");
Thread childThread = new Thread(childref);
childThread.Start();
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}Output
In Main: Creating the Child thread Child thread starts Child Thread Paused for 2 seconds Child thread resumes
