threadpool

Hi Guys,

I used to make good use of Java's ThreadPoolExecutor class and have yet to find a good equivalent in C#. I know of ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem which is useful in many cases but no good if you want to control the number of threads assigned to a task or have multiple individual queues for different task types.

For example I liked to use a ThreadPoolExecutor with a single thread to guarantee sequential execution of asynchronous calls.. Is there an easy way to do this in C#? Is there a non-static thread pool implementation?

Thanks,

T.

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language.

I am trying to find a way to log useful context from a bunch of threads.
