| 如何：使用后台线程搜索文件 |
组件替换了 命名空间并添加了功能，但是，也可选择保留 System.Threading 命名空间以备向后兼容和将来使用。有关更多信息，请参见 BackgroundWorker 组件概述。
“Windows 窗体”使用单线程单元 (STA) 模型，因为“Windows 窗体”基于本机 Win32 窗口，而 Win32 窗口从本质上而言是单元线程。STA 模型意味着可以在任何线程上创建窗口，但窗口一旦创建后就不能切换线程，并且对它的所有函数调用都必须在其创建线程上发生。除了 Windows 窗体之外，.NET Framework 中的类使用自由线程模型。有关 .NET Framework 中的线程处理的信息，请参见 。
STA 模型要求需从控件的非创建线程调用的控件上的任何方法必须被封送到（在其上执行）该控件的创建线程。为实现此目的，基类 提供了几种方法（ 、 和 ）。 调用同步方法，而 调用异步方法。
如果您在控件中为大量占用资源的任务使用多线程，则用户界面可以在背景线程上执行一个大量占用资源的计算的同时保持可响应。
以下示例 (DirectorySearcher) 说明一个多线程 Windows 窗体控件，该控件使用背景线程来递归地搜索一个目录以找到与特定搜索字符串匹配的文件，然后用搜索结果填充列表框。该示例阐释的主要概念如下：
-
DirectorySearcher启动要执行搜索的新线程。该线程执行ThreadProcedure方法，而该方法又调用帮助器RecurseDirectory方法以执行实际搜索并填充列表框。但是，填充列表框要求线程间调用，接下来的两项对此进行了说明。 -
DirectorySearcher定义AddFiles方法以将文件添加到列表框；但是，RecurseDirectory不能直接调用AddFiles，因为AddFiles只能在创建DirectorySearcher的 STA 线程中执行。 -
RecurseDirectory可以AddFiles的唯一方式是通过跨线程调用，即通过调用 Invoke 或 BeginInvoke 将AddFiles封送到DirectorySearcher的创建线程。RecurseDirectory使用 BeginInvoke 以便可以异步执行该调用。 -
封送一个方法要求函数指针或回调的等效项。这是通过 .NET Framework 中的委托来实现的。BeginInvoke 采用委托作为参数。
DirectorySearcher因此定义了委托 (FileListDelegate)，在其构造函数中将AddFiles绑定到FileListDelegate的一个实例上，并将此委托实例传递到 BeginInvoke。当完成搜索时，DirectorySearcher也定义了封送的事件委托。
