Thread.MemoryBarrier()

What do you expect the call to Thread.MemoryBarrier() will help your code ?

What does Thread.MemoryBarrier do ? It prevents that the compiler and the hardware subtly transform a program’s memory operations.

So basically for your code it ensures that then following instructions will be executed in the order they are written.

var sync = new Control();
sync.Handle.GetHashCode(); // ensure handle is created
_sync = sync; 

Thread safety

To answer "Is this code thread safe ?", you first need to set your definition of thread safety aka what does thread safety means for you. See also what-is-this-thing-you-call-thread-safe

General

• the code is lacking a EndInvoke() which should be integrated.

• you are misusing a Control to access the main (ui) thread of an application.

• wouldn't a SynchronizationContext be a better fit here ?
