UnityThreading

Wrapper of .NET Thread for Unity.

How to start

1. Import into your Unity project UnityThreading.dll in Assets/Plugins folder OR import source codes;
2. Create object of UnityThread type and put into constructor your delegate. For example:

private void Start()
{
  //...
  UnityThread unityThread = new UnityThread(SomeAction);
  //...
}

private void SomeAction()
{
  //Some action in thread
}

3. You can subscribe on Completed and Aborted thread events. These events invoke in main thread! For example:

private void Start()
{
  //...
  UnityThread unityThread = new UnityThread(SomeAction);
  unityThread.Completed += () =>
            {
                // Here you can use Unity features
            };
  unityThread.Aborted += () =>
            {
                // Here you can use Unity features
            };
  //...
}
//...

4. In order to control the state of the thread, you have the functions: Start(), Abort() and readonly property IsAlive. For example:

//...
private UnityThread _unityThread;
//...
private void Start()
{
  //...
  _unityThread = new UnityThread(SomeAction);
  _unityThread.Completed += () =>
            {
                // Here you can use Unity features
            };
  _unityThread.Aborted += () =>
            {
                // Here you can use Unity features
            };
  _unityThread.Start();
  //...
}
//...
private void LateUpdate()
{
  if(_unityThread.IsAlive && Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S))
  {
    _unityThread.Abort();
  }
}
//...

You do not need to Abort the UnityThread when you turn off the Unity application, this logic is already implemented in the core.
