Waiting For Process To Start?
May 5, 2009I have a problem with an App I am writing that lists information about various media on your computer and lets you launch it right from the app. My problem is, when launching an intensive process, like a game for instance, it is desirable to shut down the app to not hog precious resources. Here is the code i have so far...
[Code]...
This code works fine, but for one small detail. The app exits before the desired process starts, thus cancelling out the process all together. My question is, how do I get the app to wait for the process to start before exiting?

View 1 RepliesShow Waiting On Form Return
Dec 15, 2011What is the proper way to call up a form and wait until it receives a replay before moving onto the next code step? [Code] Now lf is the login form that waits for the users password and then, depending on if its correct or not when they hit OK it should send back a true or false (isLogedIn). Currently i do not know how to have the code wait until it receives something from the login form before moving onto the next code.
If i use my old code here:
Do Until isLogedIn = True
isLogedIn = isLogedIn
intX = intX + 1
Loop
It never ends if the user puts in a false login password so it just keeps waiting.

View 4 Replies.net - Show A Waitcursor While Waiting For A Combobox To Render?
Mar 14, 2012I have a strange issue when binding a combobox in a WPF window.I am loading a List object, to populate the combobox, through it's .ItemsSource, on Window Load, however, it does not populate.At least, not until the arrow is clicked on. Once the arrow is clicked on, the window freezes up, and after a minute or so, the 4000+ records are displayed in it.Now, the list gets loaded, however, when I click on the combobox it takes awhile for it to render, so how can I show a waitcursor while it is rendering the list?Here's the Xaml for it:
<ComboBox Grid.Column="1"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Margin="3" Name="tUser" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
DisplayMemberPath="UsersName" SelectedValuePath="UserID" SelectedValue="0"/>
And the code-behind is:
Private Sub CreateTask_Loaded(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles Me.Loaded
Using New WaitCursor
_LA.Show()
Me.tOrder.ItemsSource = GetOrderList()

Jun 4, 2009I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).

Preload Children Forms In A Background Process?
Jun 7, 2010on the loan of my application i created a background_worker to pre-load some of my child forms. here is the problem - it seems that the forms gets loaded into the second process and it wont have any affects on the original process .
In another words when i try to show the preloaded form nothing is displayed. How can i ask the background process to "Merge" with the main process when it is completed! i am not sure if merge is the best word to describe what i am trying to do here!!!
also if i try to re load the form that was created by the main process i will get exception saying you can't change one some that was created by another process
