I am trying to do the following process in the method of BackgroundWorker.DoWork()
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
For x = 0 To 100
[Code].....
As I teach myself VB, I'm working on using the backgroundworker. Mostly I'd like to use it to update a progress bar. But here the problem I'm running into...
When I use it like this:
Private Sub TestWorker_DoWork(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles TestWorker.DoWork
Dim ListText As String
For Value As Integer = 0 To 100
If TestWorker.CancellationPending Then
[Code] .....
Where GetPlayerNames() is the Sub that really contains a majority of my code, which uses a class library I wrote, and calls other functions, etc. But this just causes the backgroundworker to skip right to the RunWorkerCompleted and executes no code. It seems to me you should be able to call procedures from the DoWork and then pass updates back via the ProgressChanged event. I can't image you need to consolidate all your code into the DoWork.
I have seen others with a similar issue but not quite what I was looking for. In the backgrounderworker class dowork event I create an instance of a new class and call one of it's function. Previously, I had this code in a windows.form.timer tick event and would pass a delegate in as one of the parameters which would allow the function and other functions it calls within the class to call a method on the form to update a datagrid on the GUI. Is there a way to do this within the dowork event? I need this because the function I call from dowork calls other functions and I want each of those functions to log information in the GUI datagrid.
View 3 Replieshave a formthat hasa BackgroundWorker,on the do_work event i exe an SP:
Dim result As IAsyncResult = cmd.BeginExecuteNonQuery()
Dim rowCount As Integer = cmd.EndExecuteNonQuery(result)
Let's say a custom exception is thrown in the DoWork event for a backgroundworker. How do I pass the custom exception to the backgroundworker so that it ends up being the e.Error in the RunWorkedCompletedEventArgs?
View 1 RepliesI have an ASP.net table. In several cells I have two dropdown lists. The item selected in each dropdownlist is supposed to be populated from an SQLServer 2005 database. To do this in my code behind I step through the controls in each table cell. The code sees the first dropdown and populates it and then goes to the next cell.

When it comes to Backgroundworker's, I just make a total mess, even after reading over and over again the Backgroundworker component info on the msdn site... I have a code I would like to run on the form but if I do it with a simple "Public Sub" it will make the form lag, freeze, until the operation is done. So I try to paste the same code into a backgroundworker, and use Runworkerasync, but I get errors stating that the backgroundworker can't access controls on the form.

View 1 Replies I am trying to get a progress bar to update on my Form while waiting for a process to complete but could not get my progressbar control to update.
First of, I have tried to fix the problem for a day and a half now looking at various codes and examples in the forums but I'm afraid I probably do not have the necessary VB skills yet to troubleshoot my own code. I believe I will be able to eventually fix this after I am done with my VB book
I've attached the relevant part of my code below and the problem is that I can see my DoWork event firing off and changing the time and percentage that I want to pass on to ReportProgress() and the ProgressChanged handler. However, the ProgressChanged handler is not raised until after my Do Loop is done.
Imports System.ComponentModel
.
.
.
Public Class Form1
Private WithEvents TestWorker As System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker
[Code]....
Again, I can see the ProgressChange fire but only after my work (diagnostics) is complete so my progress bar is either 0% or 100%. In Dowork, I can verify that the progtimepercentage variable is indeed changing and ReportProgress is called but ProgressChanged is not being raised until after the job I wanted is done.
In my DoWork() function I register with our sip server. Then I have to wait for a response back. However, the response I get is received in another event. However, before I am able to check the flag in the DoWork() the DoWork() has all ready finished and the response comes after.
I am trying to find a way to wait in the DoWork() until I get a response in the Diagnotic event. I have a global flag that is set in that event that I have to check in the DoWork().I was thinking of maybe blocking in the DoWork() until the other event is finished. Maybe using a join.
' Do work in background worker
'Will return less than 8 if there are no error message from the library
If (Not Me.bgwProcessLogin.CancellationPending) Then
' Register and wait for response

How would you create and use a delegate to update the text of the main form from the DoWork event of a backgoundWorker?

I have a VB windows Form project that connects to several DataTables in an Access DB. On my form I have several textboxes, comboboxes and datetimepickers that are bound to those sources. With one table in particular when I try to update the tableadapter after editing one of the textboxes the update method fails. No exceptions are thrown, but the update method returns a zero value and the data is not updated. The update will work when just the comboboxes or datetimepickers are edited, but as soon as a textbox is edited also, update will not work.
Other DataTables within the project are set up in the same manner but are not having update issues. I can't figure out what about this one particular table is causing an issue. Can anyone give me any thoughts on where or what to troubleshoot?
I am currently trying to write a little wrapper around post-review to automatically post however this function fails when it comes to Dim results As String = sOut.ReadToEnd() and I can;t suss out why,
Edit: It doesn't produce an error it just seems to go into ReadToEnd() never to return
Function postReview() As String
Dim psi As ProcessStartInfo = New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe")
psi.UseShellExecute = False

Further Info: The actual command is working as I can see it posting to Review Board. But it just seems to get stuck in a loop while waiting on the Stream to complete. I have tried with Read and Readline with no luck?
I have a dropdown list that I am binding to a datatable. Here is the code I am using to do it:[code].....
Unfortunately, the line ddlBuildAddr.SelectedIndex = addressId is failing. Looking at this line through the debugger, the SelectedIndex goes to -1, while addressId goes to 2. What gives? Why would the assignment operator flatout not work?
My understanding of assert.fail was that if the line is executed, the test will fail.owever, I have found an instance where the assert.fail is executed, but the test passes.If the Assert.Fail statement is within a try block, the test will ALWAYS pass, even if the code execution executes the assert.fail. For example, the following test will always pass, even if the sub fails to throw an exception.

I am working on a mdi project and I have a few different xml files that I need to read in and I would really like to use multiple datatables, but only one dataset. I have always struggled to get a datatable.readxml(filename) call to work without an invalidoperationexception b/c of the schema stuff. I don't understand it very well and in the past my workaround was just to make another dataset. I am trying to avoid doing that from now on. I have written a routine called readxml which will take a xml file name, xml schema file name, and a datatable name and return to you a populated datatable..but I can't get it to work.
Here is my call to the read xml method (comes from my main mdi form class during form load)
Dim dt As DataTable = globals.xml.readxml("SqlConnectionString.xml", "SqlConnectionString.xsd", "sqlConnection")
Here is my readxml routine, I will post two versions of what I tried attempt #1: use a string of raw xml and a xmlreader

Question: I'm looking up the account name and SID for each WellKnownSidType enum member as shown below.
Why does it fail sometimes?And why does it sometimes fail in converting the WellKnownSidType to a sid?As far as I understand it, only the conversion from sid to accountname should sometimes fail, and even that only when the account isn't local and not in the domain.
For example, when translating the enum LogonIdsSid to a SID, i get:
Bekannte SIDs des Typs LogonIdsSid können nicht erstellt werden.
(Known SIDs of type LogonIdsSid cannot be created.)
