MultiThreading for time delay in WinApp Form C#

Question

I have a problem with This code in C# :

main class {
var trick = new Object();
}
.......
public void AddTabWithCheck(List<Urls> url)
{

//Some Code 

foreach(Urls link in url){
     var thread = new System.Threading.Thread(p =>
        {
            lock (trick)
            {
                Action action = () =>
                {
                    addTab(link);
                };
                this.Invoke(action);
                if(link.Host == "google")
                    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
            }
        });
        thread.Start(); }
}

I had problem to do a Time Delay in winapp form.

I coudnt use thread sleep , while(withDatetime) or similar becouse inside the WinAPP there is a WebControl Browser and i wish add some page in a loop with some delay time without freeze the UI. Neither timer is a good solution cause it's hard to handle for my situation.

So a User suggests me to use this Solution (the ones with Thread). I thought that it worked without problems but only now i realize that if i put in my loop it's take only last element (of loop) and create X threads all with the same element.

For a better explanation : i have this List<Urls> url ;

with this Class

public class Urls {
            public string Host { get; set; }
            public String url { get; set; }
}

Now i cant understand why if i add that code inside a simple Foreach , when the threads start all use the last element of loop.

I already checked if the List is correct , adding a MessageBox to show the current Object before the thread code , and it change properly.

All of your anonymous methods are sharing the same link variable.

You need to declare a separate variable inside the loop so that each method gets its own variable.
