Property Value

true if access to the cache is synchronized; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Enumerating through a cache is intrinsically not a thread-safe procedure. Even when a cache is synchronized, other threads can still modify the cache, which causes the enumerator to throw an exception. To maintain thread safety during enumeration, you can either lock the cache during the entire enumeration or catch the exceptions that result from changes made by other threads.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
