public: int Infinite = -1;public const int Infinite = -1;val mutable Infinite : intPublic Const Infinite As Integer = -1Field Value
Value = -1Remarks
For threading methods that accept a millisecondsTimeout parameter, such as Thread.Sleep(Int32) and Thread.Join(Int32), this value is used to suspend the thread indefinitely. However, in most cases, we recommend that you use other System.Threading classes, such as Mutex, Monitor, EventWaitHandle, or Semaphore instead, to synchronize threads or manage resources.
The value of this field is -1 (0xFFFFFFFF).
