           Summary: Different behavior on Thread(ThreadEntryPoint,
                    maxStackSize) on .net and mono
    Classification: Mono
           Product: Mono: Runtime
           Version: SVN
          Platform: i386

            Status: NEW

Description of the problem:

I'm testing an the behavior of Thread class on mono and VS2005.
In the documentation page of MS it's specify that is maxStackSize is
less of 128KB an ArgumentOutOfRangeException it's raised.

This seems not to be true on .Net environment.

Using the following code I try to change the maxStackSize value and wait to get
the exception.
Seems that using any value between 0 and 262144 (256k) I get the same
behavior on windows.

I suppose that it's better is the behavior it's the same, not if mono
respect the official documentation and .net not  :)


===================== TESTING CODE SAMPLE ===============================

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;

namespace testThread
{
   class Program
   {
       static void Main(string[] args)
       {
           Program p = new Program();

           Thread t = new Thread(p.ThreadEntryPoint, Int32.Parse(args[0]));
           t.Start();
           Console.WriteLine("T0 - Chk1");
           Thread.Sleep(5000);
           Console.WriteLine("T0 - Exit");
       }

       public void ThreadEntryPoint(Object obj)
       {
           int i;
           if (obj == null)
           {
               Console.WriteLine("T1 - Chk1");
               i = 32000;
           }
           else
           {
               i = (int)obj - 1;
           }

           if (i > 0)
           {
               Console.WriteLine("I=" + i);
               ThreadEntryPoint(i);
           }
           else
           {
               Console.WriteLine("T1 - Exit");
           }
       }
   }
}
