copied!<p>It appears that you want to run Tasks 1 - 3 to execute <em>synchronously</em>. So, you might as well do:</p> <pre><code>Task1(); Task2(); Task3(); </code></pre> <p>If you want to offload the execution of these tasks to another thread, you can do:</p> <pre><code>static void RunTasks() { Task1(); Task2(); Task3(); } static void Main() { new Thread(RunTasks).Start(); } </code></pre> <p>If you really wanted each task to run on a separate <em>thread</em>, and wait for the previous task to finish, you can use the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/95hbf2ta.aspx" rel="nofollow"><strong><code>Thread.Join</code></strong></a> method.</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>:</p> <p>Since you really want to use wait-handles to accomplish this, take a look at the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.manualresetevent.aspx" rel="nofollow"><strong><code>ManualResetEvent</code></strong></a> class.</p> <blockquote> <p>Notifies one or more waiting threads that an event has occurred.</p> </blockquote> <p>Call the <code>WaitOne</code> method on it to wait on the event, and the <code>Set</code> method to signal it.</p> <p>Example (horribly contrived code):</p> <pre><code>var afterT1Event = new ManualResetEvent(false); var afterT2Event = new ManualResetEvent(false); Thread t1 = new Thread(() => { Task1(); afterT1Event.Set(); }); Thread t2 = new Thread(() => { afterT1Event.WaitOne(); Task2(); afterT2Event.Set(); }); Thread t3 = new Thread(() => { afterT2Event.WaitOne(); Task3(); }); t1.Start(); t2.Start(); t3.Start(); </code></pre>
