Control Update Not Consistent On Form In Class
Nov 10, 2011
I have a class that gets 2 label controls passed to it byRef. So, while my class is being executed I want the labels on the form to be updated. This works Most of the time, but sometimes it seems the form stops updating till the class has finished its process...below is some of the code that I am using to do this...
Public Class clsImportWWDB
Implements IDisposable
Private strSearchTag As String = "" 'Last Tagname of value scanned
Private intMeldsFound As Int32 = 0 'Number of Alarm Messages Found
Private _MyForm As Windows.Forms.Form
Private _FileName As String
[Code] .....

In the pseudo code below, if I have two classes and I want one class to be initialized in the other class without the name having to be different, how would I accomplish this?
'==Car.vb==
Public Class Car
Public Model as New Car.Model()
[Code]...
Is there a better way of doing this so I get the result I want for my usage code?
'==ASPX page==
Dim c as New Car()
c.Model = Car.Model.Types.BMW

Updating the TextBox from a Thread that calls a function within a Class does not work. I'm trying to get this to work in a DLL (but I tried without as well). The DLL is accepting an Object as an argument[code]....

I know this is probably a common one, its also quite tricky to know how to get around it (I find anyway).I have a seperate thread, within that thread I have defined an object (of my own class).Obj.UpdateMyForm is called, but how do I get the code from my class to update the form?[code]I found this code online a while back, and it seems to work if I call the sub routine directly from another thread, however, calling it from one of my class sub routines doesn't seem to work.

I am converting some VB6 code which passed an unknown form object to a class, which then used the passed form object to reference the calling form and direct the data from the class as follows:
The Called Class in the class clsGetRecord
Public Function Execute(ByRef FRMForm as form) as booleanFRMForm.List1.Additem(SomeData)....Execute = SomeBool End Function
The clsGetRecord is used by many different forms which receive data all have objects called List1 as: The Calling Form for the form
frmThisFormPrivate function() as booleanDim objRecord as new clsGetRecordbRet = objRecord.Execute(frmThisForm)
The passed form object which will receive dataEnd function. Is there any simple way to do this since the calling form object is unknown at design time?

I have written some functions that I have in a module. In one of the functions I would like to update a table that is in a dataset. I would like to do this with this function and not from a form class where the table could be bound. I need to call the function from various places in the application.

What is the best way to access a value of a control within a form outside of the form class. I have a lot of functions defined in a module, one of these functions requires a series of values from controls in my main form such as the FolderBrowserDialog.SelectedPath element. I understand that these cannot be accessed in the format form.FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath and that they need to be accessed using a delegate. This is the part I am stuck with.

A few weeks ago I wrote a wrapper for the ServiceController control to enhance and streamline the base ServiceController. One of the changes I made was to add a monitoring component using the System.Threading.Timer object. On any change of status, an event is raised to the parent class. The actual monitoring works fine, but when the event is handled in the main form, my program abruptly ends - no exceptions, no warning, it just quits. [code]...

This probably shouldn't be too hard for someone to answer...even though I've spent 2 days trying to get it right. ::sigh::
I have a RichTextBox1 on my form. I need it to update every half second pulling HTML off of my webpage. I USED to have it update every half second with timers but everything keeps getting clogged and I realized I have to multi-thread.
My code so far is
Imports System.Threading
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code]....
(This is an example of code from the bigger project) So I guess my question is how do I send out about 10 of these threads (Will the sleep suffice? Or will that just pause everything making it inefficient for multithreading at all and basically turn it into a timer), and what is the proper way to make the thread post the 'responseFromServer' to the RichTextBox1 in a safe way?
I can't get it to post at all because I know there's some invoke trick I can't figure out so I don't cross the threads like in ghost busters, and also if multiple threads are trying to post to it at once I'm going to need a protected way to do this.

I am making a TabStrip control to hold a number of tabs just like TabControl, but only with the tabs, no page. The control has a "Tabs Collection", which stores a list of "Tab" class. "Tab" is not inherited from Control, but each tab has its events. So when the user add a "Tab" in the "Tabs Collection", each "Tab" instance should have a (Name) identifier, which user can access it in the code, and with WithEvents keyword so users can add event handlers to each "Tab". The expected out come should similar to this:
Friend TabStrip1 As TabStrip
Friend WithEvents t1 As Tab
...
Me.TabStrip1.Tabs.Add(t1)

I have two arraylists that contains links in one and the root url in the other. Sometimes the lists dont equal in number and I would like to iterate through the links list and if it contains a matching root url add it to a third list but also avoid any duplicates. I tried this but am not getting consistent results.

My project has the need to build consistent urls similar to the ones here on stackoverflow. I know how I "can" do it by running the string through multiple filters, but I'm wondering if I can do it all with a single method.Basically I want to remove all special characters, and replace them with dashes BUT if there are multiple dashes in a row, I need them to be a single dash. How can I implement this as clean as possible?

I'm having an issue with a program. It seems to run (continuously) any amount of time from a few days to about a week.Eventually, and seemingly randomly I get the following Errror. None of the users see a consistent item that is causing the hang, and sometimes it's even just running with no interaction with the user.I just get long signature alpha numerics as a debugging tool.Is there any way to
a) force my program to kick out of the hang if it detects one, (and I guess, how could I write a separate thread to detect a hang?)
b) find out where my program is hanging?
c) if none of these options are viable, some coding practices I might be doing wrong that I could change to help avoid this?

I have put this code in the global form Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form. And then in the form that will inherit this from the global Inherits MenuStrip. "MenuStrip" is what the global form is called. But keep getting this error: Error1Base class 'MenuStrip' specified for class 'Lesson2' cannot be different from the base class 'System.Windows.Forms.Form' of one of its other partial types.

Example:
Two files - TestClass.vb, myForm.vb
TestClass.vb looks as follows:
Imports System.Threading
Public Class TestClass
Private myClassThread As New Thread(AddressOf StartMyClassThread)
[code]....
The result:Application runs, no errors or exceptions.Displayed is the listbox and the Start button.I press the start button and a msgbox says "Not Invoked" as expected and upon clicking OK to that msgbox "Start Button Pressed" is added to the Output listbox control.Immediately following that the msgbox pops up again and says "Not Invoked". I was expecting "Invoked" as a separate thread is trying to use the Output listbox control.Of course this results in the Output.Items.Add being attempted which results in no visible result as the thread is not allowed to directly update the UI control.

I tried it and get an error but maybe I'm tring the wrong way. Can a usercontrol inherate an application defined class ie.. could you inheritance a classic rect class into a user control to add the hight and width properties to the control without having to do all the coding all over again? Currently I just declair a private instance of the class within the control and then encapsalate. It would be nice if I could just inherit all the functionality of my classes into controls designed to implament the classes.

I've been creating short test apps repeatedly to try to understand some of the concepts in VB.NET.For the most part it has been illuminating.I read Bucky's .NET knowlegebase tutorial on passing objects as parameters to newly created forms. He shows how to create a new class that inherits from the base form class and define a New() method with parameters Extending the concept I thought about doing the same thing with a form that was created at design-time (In this case Form2).

I have this class and I have a loop that launches multiple threads from the same class. This is all done from the main form.Now I want to update the richtextbox on the main from these classes.I have tried those begininvokes etc etc and nothing worked, no error but no output as well.Here the code for launching the threads :
Private PingObjects(100000) As Account 'Account is the class and login is the sub in it...
PingObjects(I) = New Account
Threads(I) = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf PingObjects(I).login)
[code]....
And to update the rtb, im using MainForm.log.text = "....." Nothing happens, no error.I have tried using the begin invoker method as well.

I am wondering how do I update a Progress Bar that resides in Form1 (for example) from a newly created class called from the Button in Form1. I have read several tutorial about backgroundworker. Most of the googled tutorials have their "long process code" in the do_work event. I have tried them and got it working from within the form itself.
However, there are 2 parts (long process) in which I wish to incorporate the updating of the progress bar; First one being a long sub routine that is in the main form (Form1). The second one is another long processing function that resides in a class. It is the second one that is giving the problem as I have no idea how to call the backgroundworker.reportProgress() to update the UI.
Here is the sample flowchart that I have created for the second long processing function:
I wish to insert a new instruction that says "Update the Progress bar that is in Form1" after the current instruction "Store the member into a collection".
