  }

Use Manualreset Event or AutoResetEvent to notify the completion.

static void Main(string[] args)
       {
           ManualResetEvent manualEvent = new ManualResetEvent(false);
           Thread t1 = new Thread(new ParameterizedThreadStart(Foo));
           t1.Start(manualEvent);
           WaitHandle.WaitAll(new WaitHandle[] {manualEvent});
           Console.WriteLine("Thread Method Completed");
       }
       static void Foo(object manaulEvent)
       {
           Thread.Sleep(5000);
           ManualResetEvent manual = (ManualResetEvent)manaulEvent;
           manual.Set();

The simplest solution is to call something other than DoWork:

public void DoWorkThenNotify()
{
   DoWork();
   ThreadFinished();
}

Thread a = new Thread (DoWorkThenNotify);
