Important Hint: It is recommended to use EurekaLog's naming routines instead of RTL (and possibly other frameworks), because EurekaLog supports Get/SetThreadDescription API, while RTL does not.
Option 1
Derive your thread class from TThreadEx class from EBase unit:
uses
EBase; // for TThreadEx
type
TMyThread = class(TThreadEx)
protected
procedure Execute; override;
end;
procedure TMyThread.Execute;
begin
// ... actual thread's code goes there
end;
// ...
Thread := TMyThread.Create(
'My Thread, FileName=' + FileName { <- this is just an example });
// or
Thread := TMyThread.Create(False { <- suspended? },
'My Thread, FileName=' + FileName { <- this is just an example });
Option 2
Use BeginThreadEx function from EBase unit:
uses
EBase; // for BeginThreadEx
function MyThreadProc(Parameter: Pointer): Integer;
begin
// ... actual thread's code goes there
end;
// ...
var
TH: THandle;
TID: Cardinal;
begin
TH := BeginThreadEx
(nil, 0, MyThreadProc, nil, 0, TID
'My Thread, FileName=' + FileName { <- this is just an example });
// ...
end;
Option 3
Use NameThread (or NameThreadForDebugging) function from EBase unit:
uses
Classes, // for TThread
EBase; // for NameThread and NameThreadForDebugging
type
TMyThread = class(TThread)
protected
procedure Execute; override;
// ...
end;
procedure TMyThread.Execute;
begin
NameThread('My Thread, FileName=' + FileName { <- this is just an example });
// Alternatively:
// NameThreadForDebugging('My Thread, FileName=' + FileName);
// ... actual thread's code goes there
end;
or:
uses
EBase; // for NameThread and NameThreadForDebugging
function MyThreadProc(Parameter: Pointer): Integer;
begin
NameThread('My Thread');
// Alternatively:
// NameThreadForDebugging('My Thread');
// ... actual thread's code goes there
end;
// ...
var
TH: THandle;
TID: Cardinal;
begin
TH := BeginThread(nil, 0, MyThreadProc, nil, 0, TID);
// ...
end;
