The task parallel library(TPL) provides task class to enter into thread pool easy. The task class is the part of .Net Framework 4.0 . The nongeneric Task class is a replacement for ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem, and the generic Task<TResult> is a replacement for asynchronous delegates. The newer constructs are faster, more convenient, and more flexible than the old.

To use the nongeneric Task class, call Task.Factory.StartNew, passing in a delegate of the target method:

using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Threading;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System;
class tpl_threadpool
{
    static void Display()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Example for thread pool created by TPL...");
    }
    static void Main() // The Task class is in System.Threading.Tasks
    {
        Task.Factory.StartNew(Display);
        Console.Read();
    }
}
