I have a 3 functions that should be called in order, that I want to do this in a thread say about 20 for each argument I pass. So for example
sub process_work(arg)
result1= function1( arg )
result2= function2(result1 )
result3= function3( result2 )
listview.items.add( result3 )
end sub
How do I call this sub and pass to thread on button click. Is it possible to spawn new thread it I pass argument to this sub and the current or last one is busy?

I am trying to call a method that started on a background thread on the UI thread calling BeginInvoke and passing in a delegate as follows:
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(Function() UpdateApplicationDataUI())
to call this method:
Private Sub UpdateApplicationDataUI()
...
End Sub
However, I get an error in the call to BeginInvoke (the UpdateApplicationDataUI portion of the delegate is stating "Expression does not produce a value").
Me.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(Function() New Action(AddressOf UpdateApplicationDataUI))

I have an application which sits on general users machines. What I want to be able to do is for the users to create a new directory through the application that will create a directory on a server that they do not have access to for secutiry reasons. Then the users can create a file within the new folder through the application, again which they do not have access to. The whole idea is to have an application that manages files that are able to be accessed by many users through the application / backend database, and therefore we do not want the user to be able to manipluate the folder / files by mapping to the location. Then if the user wants to work on the file he requests it through the application which then copies it locally to their machine.
The way that I can see this working is by having a service running on the server that has access to create folders and files in this location. The user can then request the creation of a folder / file through the application which then instructs the service to create the folder / file.
Is there anyway that I can pass arguments directly into the service on the server, or would I have to create an entry in a database on the server that the service is monitoring and then performs the request?2a. If I do have to have the service monitoring the database if I make the service check this every second will this slow the server down and will the server guys at a company be OK with this running this quick?I also need to be able to let the user know through my application that the folder / file has been created successfully, therefore what is the best way to do this? Again get the service to write to the database that the request has been completed? If this is the case then my app will have to poll the database continually to check the database that the request has been completed, this could slow the application down?

I will need to convert the following VB Form code to WPF C#:
// VB Me.Invoke(New FooDelegate(AddressOf Foo), New Object() {cmd})
Where Foo is just a method taking a string argument cmd.
I tried all the following in WPF C#, but all giving me exception:
//C#
dispatcher.Invoke(new FooDelegate(Foo()), cmd);
dispatcher.Invoke(new FooDelegate(Foo(cmd)), cmd);
dispatcher.Invoke(new FooDelegate(Foo()), new object() {cmd});
What is the correct formatting?

how to use Visual Basic to pass arguments to an application after said application was started. Example, "myapp.exe -d" enables debug mode, I want to be able to start myapp.exe then have a checkbox labeled "Debug mode" in Visual Basic. Upon "Debug Mode" being checked, it passes the argument -d to myapp.exe. Upon it being unchecked, it withdraws that argument from myapp.exe.

I build two programs, 1 - bootstrap and 1 - mainprogram
now, mainprogram has 2 constructors, the default and the one which i defined and it accepts an integer the default constructor checks the variable named iscalled a type of integer to have a value of 1 or zero, if its zero then it should shows a message saying "Improper initialization" then exits..
What I mean here is, mainprogram should only run if its called by the bootstrap program.

I have a program which has a rather complicated component within it. This component has a number of features that all run at once and will cause lag with the main application which isn't acceptable.
To resolve this issue I'd like to run these processes on the component in another thread. I've created a simple test version to work out how I'm going to do this, however I've run into a few problems.[code]...

Is there any issues with this? If I'm kicking off half a dozen threads over and over? ie: I'm not using a system where the parameters will get mixed up/corrupted?
I've looked around, and if this is OK/safe to use, this seems the easiest way to get values/params into a thread.

I have written a program that performs multiple httpwebrequests. It reports in to me by writing to the console. In the past, i have used a backgroundworker for this task, but the code became ugly and bulky. Now, i use threading.thread to start the background process. However, i can't seem to find an explanation on updating the UI from the worker thread.
I've read a lot on delegates, invoke and lambda's, and i just got more confused.
Let's say, in my current program i have this line to be displayed in a textbox on my main form:
"Error reading events!"

The following method (modified) works fine without parameters, and my status bar gets updated very cool-y. But I can't seem to make it work with one, two or more parameters.
This is the pseudo code of what I'm thinking should happen when the button is pressed:
Private Sub Btn_Click()

I have a class that runs as a thread. While the thread is running, I want to call a method in that thread. I do this commonly where a thread calls a method in the GUI with a delegate. But I'm confused how to do this when the called thread is not the GUI and there are no parameters passed to the called method.

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?
