Datagridview With Progressbar And Background Worker?
Jul 13, 2011
I have 2 forms (let's call them form1 and form2). Form1 has a datagridview that is populated by a combobox, when the selectedindex changes the datagridview is re-populated. Form2 is a small blank form with just a progressbar on it (progressbar1). Right now if I make Form2 visible when selectedindex is changed the marquee on the progressbar doesn't really move and Form1 is essentially "locked up" until the records are done loading into the datagridview.

When a user clicks on Download button on a form,
(1) User should be able to see progressbar form in continuous/marquee style.
(2) When one task is completed, title on the prog.bar form is changed
(3) when final task is completed, progressbar should go away.
What my architect wants: [Code] Downloaddata.vb class, that will actually do the work,and will implement the interface. So DoMyWork(dim frm as ProgressBarForm) implements Iwork.BeginWork.
Twice, it will report the stauts back to progress bar form. ProgressBarForm.vb class(it has BGWorker Thread) will have one public method(name ShowMyProgress) that Downloaddata class can call from its DoMyWork method when status is changed. And also implementation of all 3 events of worker thread.
My Questions:
1. Where should I put BGWorker.RunWorkerAsync
2. What kind of logic should go in ShowProgress method in progressbar and also in DoWork event?
Do I need application.doevents? In nutshell, how Progressbarform and DownloadData will communicate back & forth?

I'm creating a program that can run a large audio file (*.wav) in a seperate thread using the background worker, the only problem I'm having is trying to report the progress using a progress bar. When I try to report progress nothing happens. here is the code below:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
BackgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync()

I have a form with a DataGridView control. When i load the form, i fill the control with several records. Now sometimes it can be 1 to 30, but sometimes it could be 10000+ records.Now, what i'm trying to do is to grid.AutoResizeColumns
As you can imagine, when i have 30 records it goes like the Flash, but the more records, the longer it takes; obviously..So, for now i have a ugly label saying "WAIT PLEASE" and waitcursor=true; Yes, horrible, i know...
So i tried to do the following:I created a form called frmWAIT, and have a timer in it that shows 4 pictures at 250ms intervals, to make some kind of animation.In my Primary form, i added a BackgroundWorker, and in the DoWork Event, i tried to grid.AutoResizeColumns and it won't do it.

I hope someone can guide me in the right direction. I'm using VB2008 and I have been writing some small apps just to get me started in programming (I'm pretty much a newbie) and all was going well until now. I recently was experimenting with an n-tier style application. My application is as follows:
1) SQL Server 2008 database
2) Data Access Layer
3) Business Logic Layer
4) WCF Service
5) Winforms Client
My Winforms client retrieves data from the database via a call to a WCF service. I want to make the UI more responsive and to prevent it from locking up when its pulling down data from the database and populating a datagridview. I have looked at the background worker component but I am unsure how to implement it properly. To currently populate the DGV I simply use the click event of a button, as follows.

It's always been my understanding that ByVal means is that you are passing a copy of a variable to your Subroutine. You can make changes to the copy and the original will not be altered.So if that's true I have two questions- How is my DataGridView updating without me passing the arguments back to it- The backgroundworker works fine as long as I don't reorgnize the columns in the datagrid.
'I pass the rows of my datagridview to the background worker
bgwGetHostStatus.RunWorkerAsync(dgvMonitoredSites.Rows.Cast(Of DataGridViewRow).ToArray)
'It grabs a website name from the IP column and reports if it's down or not in the status column. Now if

I have a DataGridView that I'd like to load with data that I'm retrieving from a SQLDataReader running in a background worker as the data comes in (it's a query that takes a long time). My goal is for the user experience to be similar to searching for a file in Windows where the results appear in the list as they come in and you can still interact with the window.
I have it working with a background worker and data reader and I'm trying to add the row from the SQLDataReader.Read through using the BackgroundWorker.ReportProgress method. Everything technically works but the flicker is crazy and the form is unusable (probably not because the GUI thread is blocked but just because there's so much going on...) How do I make loading the datagridview "smooth"?

I have the following code that adds a background worker into a VB.net WPF project:
Imports System
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker
[Code].....
And I get the following error for the DoWork worker event:
Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types.
It seems like it's missing something in the Event declaration, but can't find it.

I am using query from a SQLite database as the AutocompleteCustomSource for a ComboBox. Also, I want to load data in separate thread. My LoadData method works fine when called directly, but it fails when it is called from the BackgroundWorker thread. When it is called from the background thread, it throws a Specified cast is not valid exception on the csearch.AutoCompleteCustomSource.Add(hh("Taj")) line. Below is my code:
Sub LoadData()
Dim connetionString As String
Dim cnn As SQLiteConnection

I'm writing an application in Visual Basic Express 2008, part of the function being to walk through a folder structure starting from a user specified folder. In my research, I found this thing called a background worker which seemed an appropriate tool to use given the potential size of a target folder structure. I successfully installed the two examples from the library here, and believe I understand the principles involved. Even so, having tried to build this feature into my application, it seems as though it is not working as expected, and, as predicted, debugging a multi-threaded application is a pain in the extremity.
I have this fragment under my "start" button click event -
HomeSource.Enabled = False
HomeCopy.Enabled = False
HomeReport.Enabled = False

I have a background worker that used to fire its RunworkerCompleted event when its DoWork routine finished querying a database and writing its output to a file. The bg worker was in a class called Query, which was called from another class called Trigger. A new Trigger Class was created for each monitored event. In this class, there was a structure which stored the config of each Trigger. When this event was triggered (set to TRUE) a new query class is created and it is passed the Trigger class. When the database query, file writing was done, the query class and all its rsources were diposed from the RunWorkerCompleted EventRecently I changed the application so that a new trigger class is not created for each monitored event. There is a single instance of the class but new config structure for each event. When a particular event is trigger, jsut the config structure is passed to a new query class and the sma ething is done in the query class. I just noticed now that the RunWorkerCompleted event is not being fired anymore.

I have an issue that I can't seem to find a straight answer for anywhere... I have a For loop that sends a file name to a background worker that contains some long running code and I can't find a way for the parent thread to wait for the background worker to finish... Here is the example code:

I have run into this before, When I develop a form to use a background worker to fill tableadapters, the background worker does fine on machines running Vista, but if you run the same thread on an XP machine, the thread gets hung.All the thread is doing is filling a table adapter like this.[code]Why would this run on a Vista machine and not an XP machine?

I have created a background worker to go and run a pretty long task that includes creating more threads which will read from a file of urls and crawl each. I tried following it through debugging and found that the background process ends prematurely for no apparent reason.
While Not myreader.EndOfData
Try
currentRow = myreader.ReadFields()
Dim currentField As String
[code]....
This first bit of code is the loop to input from file and this is what the background worker does. The next bit of code is where the background worker creates threads to work all the 'landingPages'. After about 10 threads are created the background worker exits this sub and skips the file input loop and exits the program.
Try
For Each landingPage As String In landingPages
pgbar.Timer1.Stop()
If VisitedPages.Contains(landingPage) Then
[code]....
Also my main thread runs a forms from where this background is called to run but the main thread is supposed to wait for the background process to end unless the user selects another option from the main form.

I've been experimenting with background worker to maintain responsiveness and to allow the UI to update while things are being done in the background.I've been having problems getting the background worker to do anything with form controls.For simplicity lets say I have form1 and form2.The background worker is on form1Initially I couldnt get it to edit controls on form1 but by using [code]However the problem came when I tried to get the same background worker to update controls on form2, in this case a text box. With the above code there is no error but it also does not update the text box.Is there an easy way to give a background worker access to multiple forms.

I have a function it is called ReLoad()
How can i run it as a background worker? so it can run in the background where it does not effect my current running function - basicly so the form will not freeze at all.

I am developing a VB application along with MS Access... When I initially load my form I need to put my application to sleep for 3 seconds or else data wont load properly. So for this 3 seconds I would like to show a progress bar displaying a message "Please wait" I tried using background worker but did not find any success... I have gone through many tutorials but for some reason could not accomplish the task.

I'm new for VB.Net 2008. I am facing some problem about how to make the multiple groups activities running (it might concurrent) based on their own activity's time set? For example: If there is 80 groups and 100++ activities in each group, can i use background worker (create 80 background worker?) to handle this (each background worker handle their group activities.) if in this case (But it will running lag or hang)

I am trying to code a simple background workers class without needing to use the backgroundworker object on a form. This would allow me to use a background worker in any class without writing much additional code. Is it possible to pass in the name of a sub at runtime instead of hard-coding it? To do this I would replace onDoWork and onProgressChanged below and use (Byval onWorkSub as SomeKindOfObject?, Byval onProgressChangedSub as SomeKindOfObject?) instead. [code]

I just can't see what I am doing wrong here, since I have implemented a progress bar into my background worker it no longer only runs the once (in some cases I have seen the coding within the foor loop run 6 times)

My progress bar max value is set to 10.

ive developed my app and am im trying to improve its use ability. Ive created a dvd management app for myself and i have a function that retrieves all the data for all the movies displayed in my listview. It works fine but the interface hangs for the entire time.Ive decided to use a background worker so i can browse other movies with all the data is being fetched.Im having silly problems with getting the index value for my listview when im using the .DoWork()
ive had these errors:
1. Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'ListView1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
2. nvalidArgument=Value of '1' is not valid for 'index'. Parameter name: index
the function works a dream whenvnot being called inside the doWork()
