C#, IAsyncResult and the thread pool
c#, iasyncresult, threadpool
Solution
Yes this work will occur in the thread pool. This page in MSDN goes into depth on how BeginInvoke works:

Problem
I use the `Action<object>.BeginInvoke()` method, does this use the thread pool or not? I have the following C# code: ``` List<FileHash> hashList1 = hashList.Where((x, ind) => ind % 2 == 0).ToList(); List<FileHash> hashList2 = hashList.Where((x, ind) => ind % 2 == 1).ToList(); Action<object> oddWork = CalcHash; Action<object> evenWork = CalcHash; IAsyncResult evenHandle = evenWork.BeginInvoke(hashList1, null, null); IAsyncResult oddHandle = oddWork.BeginInvoke(hashList2, null, null); evenWork.EndInvoke(evenHandle); oddWork.EndInvoke(oddHandle); ``` Is the thread pool used behind the scenes or not? Or does the system create normal threads?
