createthread
CreateThread is a Windows API function that creates a new thread of execution within the calling process. It returns a handle to the new thread, which can be used with synchronization and wait functions, and to query or control the thread’s state. The new thread begins execution at the function pointed to by lpStartAddress and is passed the lpParameter as its single argument. The thread runs concurrently with the creating thread until it terminates or the process ends.
The function signature involves six parameters. lpThreadAttributes can specify a security descriptor for the thread object
If CREATE_SUSPENDED is specified, the thread starts in a suspended state and must be resumed with ResumeThread
Practical use involves careful synchronization and data sharing between threads. Developers should consider whether to use
