MSDN said that BlockingCollection.Take call blocks if there is no elements in it. Does it mean the thread will yield the timeslice and go to the waiting threads queue?
If yes does it mean that the thread will change its state to Ready once the blocking collection received an item and then will be scheduled to next timeslice as per usual rules?
Yes. When you call
Take()on aBlockingCollection<T>, the thread will sit blocked (waiting on an event handle) until an element is added to the collection from another thread. This will cause that thread to give up its time slice.When an element is added to the collection, the thread will get signaled to continue, get the element, and continue on.
