Thread Pool Download Multiple Files At Once?
Sep 2, 2009
I'm trying to use the thread pool to download more than one string at a time. But most of the tutorial on threading is in C# or C++ so my knowledge on thread pool is limited.
Here's what I got so far.
Imports System.Threading
Imports System.Net
Imports System.Text.RegularExpressions
[Code]....
I keep getting an error "Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Listbox1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on." And it still seems to be downloading it one by one to me.

I have a code that basically grab data from a file, split into array and use a FOR loop to input data into a different file. I want to use thread pool to create multiple threads to do a specific task. For example for the array() I want a thread to read the first item in a array and perform the task, a second thread reads the second item and perform the task, a third thread reads the third item and perform the task, etc. How would I add thread pool to something like:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim data As String
[code]....

I have about 1000 webrequest created. Each link will navigate to a website and download a picture to place into a picturebox.
The person will then type in what animal is in the picture into a textbox. Then the user will then hit the submit button to send the name of the animal back to the site.
I am going to implement the use of a thread pool to handle the threading portion of those requests.
What is the best method to get my webrequest into the thread pool (listbox, txt file,etc?) and then how can I setup my button to coordniate with the site that is coming out of the pool to the picture box?
My first thought is to create everything on the fly. The picturebox, the textbox, and the submit button, the webrequest to the site for the picture and back again for the result. Something tells me that I will be taking the long way around to get same result.
My second thought is to have a slew of pictureboxes, textboxes, and buttons already on my screen and then when they come out of the pool and into a thread they would assigned a picturebox, textbox, and button if the others are not busy.

I am going to implements a thread pool to run my application. All of my content is saved under a folder on my desktop.
Each of the files are in .txt format. How can I read each .txt from a given folder and then put the .txt file into the thread pool / thread queue?

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.

I have several threads in my WinForm and I am running them via Thread.Pool, what I need to know is that how can I run them sequentially.
example:
Thread1 => me.label1.text = "Thread1"
Thread2 => me.label2.text = "Thread2"
Thread3 => me.label3.text = "Thread3"
In my Form_Load event, I have a line as follows:

Im creating a service for a mobile platform and I need to process user messages on a different thread than they were created on to leave the threadpool open.Anyway my App will be using a MySQL database and when it gets a message it will add the message to Another thread pool. But in the sub that procceses the messages I will need to perform query's on the database. So i know i can use a global variable and it will be visible to all threads but is making database operations safe while using a thread pool with a global mysqlconnection?

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
Private Sub BttnStartSending_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BttnStartSending.Click
try
Dim objparam As New ThreadParameter

i have been assigned a project by my organization to make a portal using vb.net which would list all the files and folders kept at the server, and i need to add a functionality wherein on a single click the user should be able to download all the files present in a particular a listbox which contains various files selected for the download, iam using file.copy method for this as the files are to be copied in the intranet only but this works fine when i run it on my computer but as soon as i deploy it and in the client server architecture the files are not copied even to the server nor in the client, although no error is shown.

My current code is Imports System.Net Imports System.IO Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click#
Using wc As New WebClient()
wc.DownloadFile("http://link.com/1.swf", Path.Combine("1.swf"))
End Using
End Sub
End Class
And that work's like a charm, however say there was swf's from 1 to 2700 or so, how would i go around making it download each of those files one at a time or all at once? I could do a loop but I'm not the best in Visual Basic 2010

I have a class that is a downloader (I didnt make it). You create an instance of it like so:
Dim _Down As New WebFileDownloader_Down.DownloadFileWithProgress(URL, Location)URL and Location are replaced by strings. This all works fine. But when I try to download multiple files, it doesn't work, I just add this bit for another file to be downloaded:

There is a problem with standard System.Timers.Timer behaviour. The timer raise Elapsed event with some interval. But when time of execution inside Elapsed event handler exceed timer interval then thread pool begin queuing event handling. This is a problem in my case. This is because with my Elapsed event handler I fetch some data from database and doing something with it and finally save results back to database. But data handling should be provided only once. So, is there a way to prevent from queuing elapse events for System.Timers.Timer.
As illustration for this issue you can consider next test program:

2) Second way is about SynchronizingObject, but it is a valuable only for Windows form application or required additional development of code for implementing object that would be implements ISynchronizeInvoke interface. More about this way you can find here

Is there any way to download multiple files at the same time from a remote server? How I am doing it currently is I get a list of files from the target folder on the server then I loop through that list & download each file 1 at a time. For 100 small files it takes about 45 seconds. I'm guessing that the bulk of the time it takes is logging in to the server for each file to download, so 100 files means it has to login, download & logoff 100 times. Is it possible to login just once, download the 100 files then logout?

I wrote a program to download and play AVI files the files are large in size and long time wise. I have the files playing as they are being downloaded but i can't see how long the file is or seek reliably. i was reading that the AVI headers are in the last 512kb of the AVI file *why would't they put it at the start* lol so my question is is there a way to download the last 512Kb of the file i'm downloading. i have the Bytes Read and Length of the file while its downlaoding i'm just not sure where to go from there, or how to do it atleast. If i had the length in time of the Avi file i could set the trackbar to be able to seek properly. or if someone has an idea how i could get the time of the video by using fps and some math i could prob do it that way too but idk how i would tell how i can find how many kb are in the fps i'm sure it changes so think that way is't going to be reliable. how to get the last 512kb would be the best option not sure if it can be done even.

I hve threaded ftp download, and that thread reports it's progressto another form (to progress bar). Now, when thread downloads, progress of thread is much slower than actual download is, so for instance: all files get downloaded, but the progressbar is at 50% or even less. Is there a way to track the progress of actual FTP download.

I have a website that has highly granulised access and hence requires many web.config files. The problem is I would like to trim the menu so that only certain users will have access to certain folders. I have enabled trimming and setup roles in the sitemap, however when I access the page the menu is not show, as I am authorized to view the default page which is not in a subfolder. When I type the url of a page in sub folder's I have access.
How should I handle this:
A site map for each web.config file - don't know how this will work Removing the sub web.config file to only use a single one

I understand you can't download compiled files because of viruses but how do you use the seperate files? I downloaded something and it only gave me a bunch of .frm and .frmx files.
