.
Summary

C# Signature:

   SecurityAttributes, uint StackSize, System.Threading.ThreadStart StartFunction,
   IntPtr ThreadParameter, uint CreationFlags, out uint ThreadId);

User-Defined Types:

SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES

None.

Tips & Tricks:

Sample Code:

Please add some!

Alternative Managed API:

Try System.Threading.Thread.Start. It doesn't give you all the control of directly calling CreateThread, (such as specifing the flags), but it will get you a vanilla thread to spin up.
