Get Thread ID from Window

Question

I need to obtain the Thread Id from a window create in runtime with this code

System.Windows.Window MyWindow = new System.Windows.Window();
MyWindow.Show();

I'm getting the window handler using

IntPtr WindowHandle = (new WindowInteropHelper(MyWindow)).Handle;

How can I get the Thread Id from the window or its corresponding handler?

I don't doubt you need the thread necessarily, but I am curious why you think you need the thread ID. I could imagine you don't need it and that there are more appropriate API calls to do what you actually want to do. — sethcall, Apr 11 '12 at 13:38

According to MSDN

Retrieves the identifier of the thread that created the specified window and, optionally, the identifier of the process that created the window.

Is there any way to check if I'm getting the correct ID? Because the 3rd party dll isn't doing whats supposed to do – Gonçalo Cardoso Apr 11 '12 at 13:50
