How To Set Global Keyboard Hook On Separate Thread
Apr 29, 2012After many searches i end up using this class for global keyboard hooking. Link: Global Hook post [code]My app is performing operations that take some seconds to complete (ftp upload small files on interval), and during this time the hook lovks the keyboard. This i dont want of course..I cant jump to Async FtpWebRequest right now because it needs many changes, so i thought that the solution would be to make the hoook live in another thread.A proposal is to move my time - consuming operations (upload) to another thread.Upon doing this i am facing other problems. Because the time consuming task (upload) is in a timer i would have to rewrite a big portion in order to synchronize the file->save with the file->upload and i dont mind the app locking for 3-4 secs. what i do mind is to loose the kayboard for 3-4 secs.

Jul 3, 2010I have a program that u record your clicks then you press a button (Ctrl + E) then it plays them back. What I want is for Ctrl+E to stop them, It would work but it seems like its being overpowered by the mousemoving and clicking. The keyhook did already work before I started on the playback part.

Nov 12, 2009Preface: I know this is an unusual/improper way to do this. I can do this with a "real" ShowDialog(), background worker/thread, and so on. I am trying to do specifically what I describe here, even if it is ugly. If this is impossible for X reason, I have created a fancy progress dialog for some of our long running operations. I need to have this dialog shown on a new thread while having processing continue on the calling (UI in most cases) thread.

Ticker Not Working In New Thread?
May 27, 2011I have a class that creates a ticker whose tick event checks somes stuff for me. If I instantiate the object and call the methods it works just fine. however if I create a new thread and call the function then the tick event doesnt get called for some reason.
Calling the object/creating thread:
Dim checkObj = New checkOutLook
checkObj.delForm = Me
[Code].....
why it would have problems handling an even tick on a separate thread? I even added a MessageBox output in the ticker to be able to check that its working properly

VS 2008 GetNextControl Not Working In Sub In Different Thread?
Aug 5, 2009I have a background thread that calls a subroutine with the following inside it. I'm assuming the thread is messing with this part since it doesn't return anything.
Dim ctl As Control = Me.GetNextControl(Me, True)
Do Until ctl Is Nothing
If TypeOf ctl Is TextBox And ctl.Enabled = True And ctl.Tag <= 36 Then

I just called the sub that this is in without using the thread and it works fine, so it is the thread. How can I get this working inside a background thread?
Refresh Label From Inside A Thread Not Working?
Feb 2, 2012I am using Visual Studio 2010 and have been slowly getting into threading. My current project has a form with a button that in turn starts two threads. The form itself has two labels on it that are used to display the progress of the computations. Each thread has a delegate defined to change the value of the respective label (as the labels are not defined in the thread, but on the form itself). The threads call subs from a separate class. All of the calculations work flawlessly. My problem is that the labels do not visually update. Through use of message boxes at the end of each loop, I know that the label text property is, indeed, being changed, but it is not actually refreshing and updating on screen.
My delegate code is as follows (I grabbed this code off of another forum where people had the same issue - it seemed to work for them, but not for me):
Private Delegate Sub UpdatePMLabelTextDelegate(ByVal s As String)
Private Sub UpdatePMLabelText(ByVal s As String)
' Are we in the same thread as the label itself?

Structure Without Creating New Thread For Every Iteration
May 8, 2011I'm trying to create a structure wherin I have got 1 mother thread and 2 child threads. The child threads get variables to work with from their mother thread and after completion they report back to the mother with the resulting variables. I'd like to be as efficient as possible so creating a new thread every time a thread has finished it's work is kind of a no-go. How can I create this structure without creating a new thread for every iteration?

View 7 RepliesError Creating Window Handle In A Thread?
Sep 14, 2011I've a little program that has got tabControl with 2 tabs - "results" and "log". My idea was that when an error occurs the tab will switch automatically on tbLog to show what the problem was. Most arguably the problem is in threading. This is the code that..I use:
Dim thread As New Thread(AddressOf ExecuteQuery)
thread.Start()
ExecuteQuery executes the query and I'm making an error deliberately to see if I'll be automatically switched to the log tab which is in Try-EndTry procedure:
tbGrid.SelectedTab = tbGrid.TabPages(1)
The program indeed switches to tabLog (which is number 1) but I don't see any controls on it (txtLog), then when I'm trying to switch tabs a couple of times I get "Error creating window handle in a thread". I read other forum threads about it where people as how many controls do they have in their programs but my program does not exceed 70 controls on a form.
Creating A Delay In A Loop Without Thread.Sleep()?
Apr 22, 2012i have a web browser control, that refreshes pages on a loop after calling a few subs, i need to create a delay in the loop so that the page has a chance to refresh and redisplay before it loops again. i tried the code below, but it seemed to freeze the entire form, elements including, so the web browser didnt refresh before the loop, so how could i create a non form-freezing delay for a loop?

Creating Arrays With No Specific Size?

VS 2010 Error - Cross-Thread Operation Not Valid: Control TbPlaca1 Accessed From A Thread Other Than The Thread It Was Created On
Aug 13, 2010In one application, I need use 4 simultaneous threads.When the threads finished, I need to update the text of a TextBox.So, I create 4 Textbox, and I wanna the threads change the text to FINISHED.Each thread change one distinct TB.I use this "example"

The problem is, I have an error in the red lines.The error is: INVALIDOPERATIONEXCEPTION "Cross-Thread operation not valid: Control tbPlaca1 Accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on."I don't use cross threading. Each TB only was accessed for the correspondent thread, and for the "main program".
Cross-thread Operation Not Valid: Control 'Panel1' Accessed From A Thread Other Than The Thread It Was Created On." ?
Nov 3, 2011This is the error message I am getting:
"Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Panel1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on." The reason I am getting this error is because I am opening up a new form and then calling these three things:
Panel1.Show()
Label1.Show()
Label2.Show()
why I get this error message because it doesn't occur normally if I open Form2 after closing Form1, it only occurs when I open Form2 after closing Form4.

Waiting For Threads - Thread.join Suspend Execution Of Code On Calling Thread Until Spawned Thread Finishes Or Is Aborted
Sep 2, 2010My understanding is that thread.join will suspend the execution of code on the calling thread until the spawned thread finishes or is aborted...
With that in mind, I tried this:
For i = 1 to 50
threads = New Thread(AddressOf test)
threads.IsBackground = True
threads.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA)
[CODE]...
However, the rest of the code runs when the loop finishes, not waiting for all the spawned threads to finish. Since the rest of the code needs the threads to finish (otherwise the rest will error).
