Retain thread to listen delegate methods

I detach a NSThread say "thread2" and then call the NSUrlConnection class to get an xml from the remote server. Even it is not useful but i want to do that.

Now my problem is the thread2 does wait for the delegate methods response. I want that delegate methods should be called on that thread2 and thread wait for the response.

Is it possible or not. If yes then how.

You can use the synchronous method like so (assume you are dispatching the new thread to this method, or wrap this in a GCD call to a global queue):

- (void)threadDispatchMethod
{
  NSError* error = nil;
  NSData* result = nil;
  NSURLResponse* response = nil;
  result = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
  if( result ) {
    // do wonderful things
  } else {
    // cry :'(
  }
}
