new Thread(method) vs new Thread(new ThreadStart(method))?

Question

What is the difference between...

Thread MyThread = new Thread(ChangeColor);

vs.

Thread MyThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(ChangeColor));

Both are starting a new thread but is there a difference between doing it one way vs. the other?

Answer 1

Nothing. You're effectively asking the difference between:

ThreadStart threadStart = ChangeColor;

and

ThreadStart threadStart = new ThreadStart(ChangeColor);

The first is an implicit method group conversion. Both result in the same compiled code.
