  1. Create the new thread:
  

  
  [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(myMethod) toTarget:self withObject:nil];
  

  2. Create the method that is called by the new thread:
  

  
  - (void)myMethod 
  { 
     NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]; 
     // Thread code here
     [pool release]; 
  }
  

  If you need to do something to the main thread from inside your new thread
  

  
  [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(myMethod) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:false];
