Question
I'm wondering if you can change the priority of a thread by letting the user enter a string (Lowest, BelowNormal etc)? As far as I know, the "ThreadPriority" is an enum but I don't know how to do it.
thread.Priority = ThreadPriority.BelowNormal
How can I change the BelowNormal to something the user enter (ReadLine)?
Thanks!

OTHER TIPS
You can use Enum.Parse
, example uses overload method with ignoreCase
:
thread.Priority = (ThreadPriority)Enum.Parse(typeof(ThreadPriority),
"belownormal", true);
You could parse the string and do a conditional
string userinput = Console.ReadLine();
if (userinput.Contains("BelowNormal"))
{
thread.Priority = ThreadPriority.BelowNormal;
}
