Detecting Completion of an Array of Threads

Question

I have created an array of threads and started all of them. How to know whether all threads have completed work. I don't want to use thread.wait or thread.join.

If you are using .NET 4 you could use the Task Parallel Library and the ContinueWhenAll method.

You'd have to modify your threads to be represented as Task's. Tasks are easier to work with then threads. Usually you do not have to worry about lower-level things as you are forced to do now like scheduling or waiting for things to complete.
