Question

What should I put instead of the “SomeType” in the below function?
Delegate seems to be wrong here..

 public static void StartThread(SomeType target)
 {
     ThreadStart tstart = new ThreadStart(target);
     Thread thread = new Thread(tstart);
     thread.Start();
 }

EDIT: I’m not looking for alternative ways to write this.

Try the System.Action type.

Here my test code:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    StartThread(() => Console.WriteLine("Hello World!"));

    Console.ReadKey();
}

public static void StartThread(Action target)
{
    ThreadStart tstart = new ThreadStart(target);
    Thread thread = new Thread(tstart);
    thread.Start();
}
