Compilation error trying to construct a Thread instance in JScript.Net

Zones: Programming for ASP.NET, .NET

Tags: argument, constructor, error, instance

I have an ASPX page written in JScript.net that will do something and then start another thread do do some more stuff and return to the user. The thread will continue executing to complete its task (logging).

However, I am unable to create the thread in JScript.Net like I can in C# - it gets a compile error because the Thread constructor has 2 overloads that take a single argument and the compiler can not tell which one to use.

Here is a sample piece of code you can use to reproduce the compile error.

Thanks,
Gary Davis
