Enumerating Managed Threads Or Determining When A Thread Is Created?
Feb 15, 2010
I have need of either enumerating all the managed threads in a application or listen to when a new thread is created. I can not find anyway to do this through searching the web. It strikes me as odd the the IDE can list all the manage threads, but I can't.
If this is not possible, is there clarification as to why this is not possible.
I need to create a shared class in a DLL that will when it receives a signal will stop all the threads currently running, and gracefully exit the application.

My 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).

In 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"
Dim Terminados As Integer = 0
Private Sub frmEnviarMensagem_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Timer1.Enabled = True
Timer1.Start()
[code]....
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".

This 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.

Would anyone be able to help me here please. I'm fairly new to VB.net and threading so im just trying to figure out what is happening.When I debug this I am getting the error thread operation not valid: Control 'ProgressBar1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
I'm a little lost as to why the error is occuring or how to fix it. I've had to put the progress bar in a separate thread otherwise the GUI crashes

I have written an application that loads a form - frmCad as well as AutoCad. It does this via a class which detects when AutoCad quits.
Friend Class CadApp Private WithEvents AppObject As AcadApplication... Private Sub AppObject_BeginQuit(ByRef Cancel As Boolean) Handles AppObject.BeginQuit RaiseEvent Quit() End SubEnd Class
My main class loads frmCad as well as CadApp.
Public Class Cad Private WithEvents frmCad As CadForm Private WithEvents app As CadApp... Public Sub ShowForm() If frmCad Is Nothing Then frmCad = New CadForm frmCad.Visible = True End Sub... Private Sub app_Quit() Handles app.Quit frmCad.Dispose() frmCad = Nothing .... End Sub
When I debug the program, it stops at frmCad.Dispose()The program continues to execute, but all the code after it fails to work.Looking more carefully I get an error message which contains:-Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Autocad' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.

i used it and it works fine then. but as it is mentioned its not a good practice to use it. So what should i do? is it ok if i use this as i am not able to use correct practice. Mine application is not for enterprise purpose. its just my class project, and it works fine even if i put application working in background. System works ok. I dont know how to correct this error.As i dont have that much knowlege of threads.
So please guide me how to fix this in correct way otherwise i am force to go for bad programming practice
Please refer to Windows Mobile Developer Center > Smart Device Development Forums > Windows Mobile Development > Appendtext not working for all my code details

I'm running a bunch of automated tasks in a thread I'm creating via the Thread class. So I'm not using a BackgroundWorker.
During parts of the automation, the thread may exit. This is normal. But when the thread completes, I need to finish up some additional tasks. I can anticipate all of the conditions in which the thread closes, but I'd rather not to do the final tasks at each point, as this will create a lot of redundant code.
So instead, I wanted to write an event that is triggered when the thread exits. I looked through the Thread class, but all I could find was the ThreadState property, which has a Stopped property. But, when I try to add a handler to that property, it doesn't allow me.

I have only managed to use an STA to run a long running excel process with a background worker and 2 delegates.
What I want to do now is have the whole application running outside of the main thread to make sure the UI is always available, I then want to create new threads from the thread I have outside of the main to run the various processes. I will need to have some form of syncronisation in there for certain things to be done once a thread is completed and also I will need to change the button states on the main form to stop certain process being called whilst other processes are running.
This is my code so far, basically this loads in a csv file to a datatable adding manager employee ID and email address, filters it and displays the resultant data in a listview. There eventually will be some filter options as well. There are then 2 options for processing the data, it will produce individual bradford factor reports and email them to each manager or will produce a summary spreadsheet that is sent to HR.
Currently because there are around 8000 lines of data, it was the summary option that required the background worker as a long running process time out error was occuring whilst in the main.
What it does is write the data from the list view to an excel sheet and colour co-ordinates the summary rows according to the absense policy. It then copied bottom to top, the summary value the next blank column against all the lines for that individual and then uses this column to decide which sheet to move the row to, copying the row to the new sheet then deleting it from the master list and shifting the cells up.
This works well, but the process of loading the data in to the list view locks up the main thread where it currently runs. I also wanted to make this slightly more complicate as far as threading is concerned, as more of a learning curve than a practical application of the function.
Here is my code so far: [URL]

Trouble finding 1 thread out of the 3568 threads I have in my history.In the one I'm looking for I wrote an Extension Method called Shape , I think.
The code could change the Shape of any Control and I think I added similar code for any FORM in the same thread but not for User Controls.
Does anyone remember roughly what year and month it was?
It might save me hunting through my past threads.

In my application I have a loop that makes calls to a website to download data. I'm using a DownloadDataAsynch call with a handler.
I'm making many such calls in a loop. What I'd like to do is, if I have more than a certain number of replies pending, I should pause the loop and let the data handlers run.
How do I do that?

I've been reading up on multi-threading and just have a couple trivia questions that are ambiguous given my sources:
1) What is the max number of threads in the thread pool? The number 25 is used but I have on reference that says 25 per CPU and another that says 25 per core. I realize that both can be right but before I start making flagrant design decisions I'd like some validation.
2) Let's say I'm in the body of a delegate and I call a function or sub. Does that function/sub remain in the thread or does it revert to the parent thread? I'm guessing the former would be much easier to implement so that's probably what MS did but you just can never tell.

Does anyone have a 1 to n thread example in which n threads are created dynamically? There are a number of examples that show a definite number of threads, and some that imply n threads by using a tcp ip listener or a file system listener. However, I'm looking for a 1 to n created in response to a dynamic requirements, provided purely by and for my program.Essentially, my requirement is to be scalable. 1 to n threads based on application throughput should make this pretty easy to satisfy.

I'm working with vb.net 3.5SP1 /VS2008. I'm familiar with windows threads from C++ but I didn't do it since the 90s.I have 5 threadpool calls (ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem) that do some complex work (they read info from different web pages, regular expressions, etc) and each updates different columns in a data-grid view. They pause for 1 second between each web read with thread.sleep (not to overload the server). My issue is that some of the threads do not complete. I get for example 3 results when I should have 8. Sometimes it works fine. This is an older 3.0Ghz HT machine, I want to test it on the lowest common denominator(and that is all I have ). I tried using Monitor.Enter(ListView1)it seems to help but it is hard to tell. I tried using the thread debug window but it is not really helpful, it seems do disappear during execution. If I remove the threads I always get my data. I'm wondering if something is being blocked? Is there a way to debug this?
Also, does thread.sleep(x) stop all threads or just the thread that the statement is executed in?

I have a thread pool that send file using ftp protocol. I encapsulated the call for threadpoll with try catch believing that the thrown exception inside the threadpool will be catch by the main thread. Instead the system terminate whenever i throw an exception from inside the threadpool. Also I design the Clsftp.ftpsend class to throw an exception related to ftp error. Basically my design for handling the error is just like the code below.
'Main thread

What is the best way to pass objects between threads? I would like to create a new thread that creates a new object : Dim myobject as newobject = new newoject Then in my main thread, I would like to use myobject. Ideally I would like to just assign to a global variable but I don't think that is possible. I think I may have to use some form of delegate function (but I think the child thread would need to complete to use a callback). The new thread will not actually end before I need the object reference in the main thread. How should I go about this?

c# - Does queuing threads impact non-thread safe objects in the same class?

If I spawn a thread with ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem and that thread does not reference the object that is not thread safe, would it compromise that non-thread safe object? By not thread safe object, I mean a third party interface to a programmable logic controller that has no ability to open simultaneous connections or concurrency support.I suppose I just wanted to be sure that by queuing threads in the same class as my reference to that object, I wouldn't somehow be compromising its thread safeness in a way I didn't realize.
