Question : How to keep thread alive throughout the windows application c#

Hi Experts,

             I am using thread which will receive messages from the external application.
So my thread shud be alive always.

             I want my thread to be running through out the application, untill application exits. Currently i am calling my thread in program.cs, which is the startup for windows application c#. Please see the code below to know how i am doing it.

             When i use the below code, the thread starts up when application starts...
But it aborts some how, after the thread recieves one message from the external application.

I hope i am clear with my questio. Please help. Thanks.

Answer : How to keep thread alive throughout the windows application c#

- Are you closing the log file each time you write to it? If not, you might not see the most recent log event.
- You should be able to use the log file to follow what lines are executed in Receive, if not the debugger.
- If you want ot keep the loop running the longest, you should have a try, catch block just inside the while loop.
- This is a silly question, but are you sending the stop_app command and that is why the thread is only running once?
- You could try simplifying the code to identify the problem.
