C#的Thread.CurrentThread.IsBackground的作用

当一个线程，被设置为IsBackground = true的时候，它就会放手，让主线程不用等，而主线程一退出，它就会退出。
为False时，则是要求主线程等待其执行完毕，它先退出，主线程再退出。
参考官方教程。
下面验证一下：

两个线程均为后台线程

注意看Main()中的IsBackground 设置语句。
线程1-2运行的任务相同，但是运行次数不一样。
线程2运行时间更长一些。
本次测试中，两处均未被注释。

class Example
{
    static void Main()
    {
        Thread t1 = new Thread(new ThreadStart((new BackgroundTest(10)).RunLoop));
        t1.IsBackground = true;     // 注意此处：1
        Thread t2 = new Thread(new ThreadStart((new BackgroundTest(50)).RunLoop));
        t2.IsBackground = true;     // 注意此处：2

        t1.Start();
        t2.Start();
    }
}

class BackgroundTest
{
    int maxIterations;

    public BackgroundTest(int maxIterations)
    {
        this.maxIterations = maxIterations;
    }
    public void RunLoop()
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < maxIterations; i++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("{0} count: {1}",
                Thread.CurrentThread.IsBackground ?
                   "Background Thread" : "Foreground Thread", i);
            Thread.Sleep(200);
        }
        Console.WriteLine("{0} finished counting.",
                          Thread.CurrentThread.IsBackground ?
                          "Background Thread" : "Foreground Thread");
    }
}

线程结束情况：

程序“[29084] Demo.exe”已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。

此代码运行时，控制台一闪而过，无任何输出。也就是两个线程均未运行起来就随Main线程退出了。

线程12均为前台线程

代码方面，将1、2两处均注释掉。
控制台输出：

线程结束情况：

线程 0x761c 已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。
线程 0x2360 已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。
程序“[14928] Demo.exe”已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。

说明Main线程会等待前台线程，直到它们结束退出，Main线程再推出。

线程1为前台进程

代码方面，只需要将1处t1.IsBackground = true;注释掉就可以了。
控制台输出：

Foreground Thread count: 0
Background Thread count: 0
Foreground Thread count: 1
Background Thread count: 1
Foreground Thread count: 2
Background Thread count: 2
Background Thread count: 3

线程结束情况：

线程 0xccc 已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。
程序“[33772] Demo.exe”已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。

上述为全部输出内容。这说明：
前台线程会执行直到结束，然后，主线程退出，最后，当所有的前台线程一结束，后台线程也立即结束。

线程2为前台进程

代码方面，只需要将2处t2.IsBackground = true;注释掉就可以了。

线程结束情况：

线程 0x6bb0 已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。
线程 0x3774 已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。
程序“[11692] Demo.exe”已退出，返回值为 0 (0x0)。

前台线程会执行直到结束，而由于前台线程执行时间长，后台线程执行时间短，故而后台线程也能执行完毕。等前台线程执行结束后，Main线程也结束。
