Running from class in LinqPad

c#, linqpad

Solution

Just move `Main` out of `ThreadTest` and it should work fine. You also need to make the class and method `public` (or `internal` at that point):

static void Main()
{
   ThreadTest tt = new ThreadTest();   // Create a common instance
   new Thread (tt.Go).Start();
   tt.Go();
}

public class ThreadTest
{
    bool done;
    // Note that Go is now an instance method
    public void Go() 
    {
        if (!done) { done = true; Console.WriteLine ("Done"); }
    }
}

The "C# Program" is implicitly contained inside a class - moving `main` inside a nested class is probably confusing the executor which is looking for `Main` in the outermost class.

Problem

How can I run the code below in LinqPad as C# Program Thank you... ``` class ThreadTest { bool done; static void Main() { ThreadTest tt = new ThreadTest(); // Create a common instance new Thread (tt.Go).Start(); tt.Go(); } // Note that Go is now an instance method void Go() { if (!done) { done = true; Console.WriteLine ("Done"); } } } ``` UPDATE This sample - along with all the others in the concurrency chapters of C# 5 in a Nutshell are downloadable as a LINQPad sample library. Go to LINQPad's samples TreeView and click 'Download/Import more samples' and choose the first listing. – Joe Albahari
