The
CurrentThreadstatic property on theSystem.Threading.Threadclass is the current CLRSystem.Threading.Threadinstance. The CLR Thread is an abstraction over the underlying win32 thread. TheSystem.Diagnostics.ProcessThreadclass gives one access to the win32 threads, largely for perfomance tracking.A key distinction of CLR threads is that they are not fixed to win32 threads.
