Hello, I have this class. but when I call Start() on it the Run method is never called.

Am I doing something wrong?

public class ThreadedJob
    {
    public bool m_IsDone = false;
    
	private Thread m_Thread = null;
   
	private Action action ;


	public ThreadedJob(Action runAction)
	{
		this.action = runAction;
	}


    public  void Start()
    {
        m_Thread = new Thread(this.Run);

        m_Thread.Start();

    }
    public  void Abort()
    {
        m_Thread.Abort();
    }

    private void ThreadFunction() { 
	

			action();

			


	
	}
	private void Run()
    {

		while(true){
			Debug.Log("Thread Function Called");
			ThreadFunction();
			System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500);

		}
        
    }

}

Dunno, works for me. Example usage I wrote:

using UnityEngine;
using System;

class JobExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    ThreadedJob periodicTimeReport;

    void Awake()
    {
        periodicTimeReport = new ThreadedJob(ReportTime);
    }

    void ReportTime()
    {
        Debug.LogFormat("The time is {0}", DateTime.Now);
    }

    void OnEnable()
    {
        periodicTimeReport.Start();
    }

    void OnDisable()
    {
        periodicTimeReport.Abort();
    }
}
