WPF及其线程管理
by 赵楚昕

1
什么是WPF

 Windows Presentation Foundation (or WPF) is a


computer-software graphical subsystem for
rendering user interfaces in Windows-based
applications (Wikipedia).
 Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a
next-generation presentation system for
building Windows client applications with
visually stunning user experiences. With WPF,
you can create a wide range of both standalone
and browser-hosted applications (Microsoft).

什么是线程

 线程（Thread），是操作系统可以进行调
度的最小单位。

为什么要线程管理

 在学校里，
 Web-based
 One thread per request
 Handled by sever-side software
 Apache HTTP server
 Internet Information Services (IIS)
 Apache Tomcat
 Console-based
 多数情况为单线程
 我们往往直接忽略线程的存在
8
为什么要线程管理

 实际开发中，
 GUI 开发
 Web server 的底层优化
 操作系统的开发
 线程与其相关问题其实无处不在

9
.NET Framework 中如何线程

1. Thread t = new Thread(delegate() { foo(); });


2. ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem((WaitCall
back)delegate(object s) { foo(); });
3. Dispatcher.BeginInvoke((Action)delegate() {
foo(); });
4. Dispatcher.Invoke((Action)delegate() {
foo();});
5. …
* 注意delegation的使用(下划线部分)

Thread t = new …
 Concurrent programming 基础
 Synchronization
 Deadlock
 Debug
 Support

11
.NET Framework 中的线程模式

 ThreadPool
 Dispatcher
 BackgroundWorker

 优势
 绝大部线程开发中可能出现的问题都已经被 .NET
Framework 解决。
 限制
 后台线程（Background Thread）
 前台线程的终止会造成运行中的后台线程直接终止

Let’s CODE!

 Quick WPF Project Demo


 新建项目
 XMAL
 Drag and drop
 Writing markup
 Events handling

 Threading demo, the Bad


 Threading demo, the Good
