Thread.ResetAbort Method in C#

A Thread class is responsible for creating and managing a thread in multi-thread programming. It provides a method known as ResetAbort which is responsible for canceling the abort request of the current thread. It prevents the ThreadAbortException from terminating the thread.

Syntax:

public static void ResetAbort ();

Exceptions:

  • ThreadStateException : If the Abort was not invoked on the current thread.
  • SecurityException : If the caller does not have the required security permission for the current thread.

Below programs illustrate the use of ResetAbort() method:

    // Method Job
    public void Job()
    {
        try {
  
            for (int I = 0; I < 10; I++) 
            {
                Console.WriteLine(" My Thread is working..!");
                Thread.Sleep(100);
            }
        }
  
        catch (ThreadAbortException e) 
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Caught ThreadAbortException and reset");
            Console.WriteLine("Ex message: {0}", e.Message);
            Thread.ResetAbort();
        }
  
        Console.WriteLine("Thread is alive and working..!");
        Thread.Sleep(2000);
        Console.WriteLine("Thread is finished its working..!");
    }
}
  
// Driver Class
class GFG {
  
    // Main Method
    public static void Main()
    {
        MyThread obj = new MyThread();
        Thread T = new Thread(obj.Job);
        T.Start();
        Thread.Sleep(100);
        Console.WriteLine("Aborting thread");
        T.Abort();
        T.Join();
        Console.WriteLine("Main thread ends");
    }
}
