What is the main difference between two of following approaches: ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem Clients objClient = new Clients(); List<Clients> objClientList = Clients.GetClientList(); foreach (var list in objClientList) { ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(new WaitCallback(SendFilesToClient), list); } System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel ForEach Clients objClient = new Clients(); List<Clients> objClientList = Clients.GetClientList(); Parallel.ForEach<Clients>(objClientList, list => { SendFilesToClient(list); }); I am new to multi-threading and want to know what's going to happen in each case (in terms of

I have a Windows Service and want to change the name of it (as it appears in the Services application). But I'm unsure of the correct way to do so. It appears to be the ServiceName property and searching through my solution I found this: namespace SI.AService.AService { partial class AService { /// <summary> /// Required designer variable. /// </summary> private System.ComponentModel.IContainer components = null; /// <summary> /// Clean up any resources being used. /// </summary> /// <param name="disposing">true if managed resources should be disposed; otherwise, false.</param> protected

The problem I am facing is that I can only open 10 connections to this service. The listener::AcceptTcpClient() method accepts only 10 connection and throws an exception for 11th one. The client application uses the System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient class and the service is using System.Net.Sockets.TcpListener class. This is the exception that I am getting when I try to make a number of connections in a for loop to this service (after the 10th

I'm trying to create a windows service that needs to run in the background and listen for incoming traffic (a normal and regular TCP listener) my code is: private TcpListener server; public void startServer() { // EventLog.WriteEntry(source, "connected on: " + ipAddress.ToString() + " port: " + Service1.Port.ToString()); server = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1"), Service1.Port); server.Start(); while (true) { var client = server.AcceptTcpClient(); new Thread(work).Start(client); } public void work(object client) { string msg = null; var clientLocal = (TcpClient)client; using
