PostSharp6.6//API Reference/Post­Sharp.​Patterns.​Threading Namespace/IThread­Aware Interface

IThreadAware Interface

Interface implemented by objects that are aware of concurrency. Access to thread-aware objects is controlled by a concurrency controller (IConcurrencyController). Any aspect implementing a threading model (ThreadAwareObjectAttribute) introduces this interface to the target class and ensures that accesses to this class go through the controller.

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodOnParentControllerChanged
Notifies the object that the effective controller of it's parent has changed.
