When a managed thread is created, the method that executes on the thread is represented by a delegate or a delegate that is passed to the constructor. The thread does not begin executing until the method is called. Execution begins at the first line of the method represented by the or delegate.

Visual Basic and C# users can omit the or delegate constructor when creating a thread. In Visual Basic, use the AddressOf operator when passing your method to the constructor; for example, Dim t As New Thread(AddressOf ThreadProc). In C#, simply specify the name of the thread procedure. The compiler selects the correct delegate constructor.

In earlier versions two parameters were required when creating a delegate for a static method: zero (null) and the method address. For an instance method, all versions require two parameters: the instance variable and the method address.
