How to share data between different threads In C# without using the static variables? Can we create a such machanism using attribute?

Look at the following example code:

public class MyWorker
{
    public SharedData state;
    public void DoWork(SharedData someData)
    {
        this.state = someData;
        while (true) ;
    }

}

public class SharedData {
    X myX;
    public getX() { etc
    public setX(anX) { etc

}

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        SharedData data = new SharedDate()
        MyWorker work1 = new MyWorker(data);
        MyWorker work2 = new MyWorker(data);
        Thread thread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(work1.DoWork));
        thread.Start();
        Thread thread2 = new Thread(new ThreadStart(work2.DoWork));
        thread2.Start();
    }
}

In this case, the thread class MyWorker has a variable state. We initialise it with the same object. Now you can see that the two workers access the same SharedData object. Changes made by one worker are visible to the other.

You have quite a few remaining issues. How does worker 2 know when changes have been made by worker 1 and vice-versa? How do you prevent conflicting changes? Maybe read: this tutorial.
