VS 2008 Form Close Vs Dispose
May 6, 2009I am using VB.NET (Visual Studio 2008) and thus .Net framework 3.5. I have developed an application which has a MDI form and then has several other forms, most of which are shown using form.showdialog and some set of forms are shown using form.show. Whenenver a form (shown using form.showdialog) was closed (usually by clicking on a button (OK or Cancel)) I wrote code Me.dispose. After careful testing and R&D I figured this caused flickering on the screen. There use to be a flicker on the screen and it looked weird.

Difference Between Dispose() And Close()

Does con.Dispose() do both of the above 2 lines of code or do I do con.close() and then con.dispose()?

View 5 RepliesFile Still In Use After Close / Dispose Everything
May 12, 2009I have created a CMS-system and I am using it on different homepages. To manage updates quick and easy I made a administration-system for uploading the updates on all homepages on the same time. As long as I only have to overwrite the old files everything is going fine, but there are some few files on every homepage containing some different constants.
For that purpose I made this code:
Open the new file to be copied from my default cms-system:
Dim fs as new FileStream("D:WEBLOCALUSERmysite.dkskabelondefault.aspx",FileMode.OpenOrCreate)
Dim objReader as new StreamReader(fs)
Dim strFile as string = objReader.ReadToEnd
objReader.close()
[Code] .....
Sometimes first file is updated successfully, but for the next file I got this error:'D:WEBLOCALUSERmysite.dkskabelonempdefault.aspx' because it is being used by another process. I tried to close and dispose everything possible, but still the file is in use for minutes.
Form Close Or Dispose
May 6, 2009I am using VB.NET (Visual Studio 2008) and thus .Net framework 3.5. I have developed an application which has a MDI form and then has several other forms, most of which are shown using form.showdialog and some set of forms are shown using form.show.Whenenver a form (shown using form.showdialog) was closed (usually by clicking on a button (OK or Cancel)) I wrote code Me.dispose. After careful testing and R&D I figured this caused flickering on the screen. There use to be a flicker on the screen and it looked weird.In some rare circumstances if I clicked on button and form closed using me.dispose the focus of application was lost and some other program that was running came on focus. (This has happened but was rare.)Now the reason I used disposed was that after a form was shown using .showdialog I didnt want its contents to be in memory so I used the .dispose thing. But I noticed that If I use form.close then there is no flicker and form closes fine. But I think that would not dispose the form from the memory.
What should I do so that form closes and is disposes as well without any flicker.?I read on net that for forms shown using .show it gets disposed off automatically the moment it is closed (by using me.close) or user clicking on cross. Is this true? I also think that If I call a form using showdialog then I can write formx.dispose from where I am calling and not in the form itself.

View 10 RepliesVS 2008 : Get 2 Forms To Close At Different Times Using A Timer On Each Of The 2 Forms?
Apr 21, 2010i have a problem with trying to get 2 forms to close at different times using a timer on each of the 2 forms.
This is my form layout:
Quote:
frmMain
Frm1
Frm2
Frm1 and Frm2 are identical to each other. FrmMain has 2 buttons on it. One button to call Frm1 and the other to call Frm2.Frm1 and Frm2 each has a timer. It counts down to 0 and then does a .close(). However, if i pause between clicking the second button they both seem to always disappears at the same time.I would do something like this...
Click on the first button (showing the Frm1 form)
wait about 10 secs...Click on the second button (showing the Frm2 form)they both are shown on screen...hen they both disappear at the same time.... which shouldn't happen since i clicked the Frm2 box 10 seconds AFTER Frm1... So Frm1 should hide before Frm2 does...but it does not.

Interface And Graphics :: Hide / Show - Doesn't Dispose When Close Form
Oct 23, 2008Is there a way to have a form within a program that doesn't dispose when you close it? I have a form in my project and a menu item to show it. When I declare the form globally and show in menuItem.click, then the click event breaks because the form no longer exists. When I declare the form within menuItem.click, then this creates a new form every time I click and that's not what I want.

View 3 RepliesClose() Puts Forms Into Crazy Open/Close Loop?
Mar 4, 2011In a program I'm working on, I want a "Loading..." dialog to close when it can't log in to a site using the username and password provided by the user. Basically, I have the code set up right because the function it is supposed to carry out when that occurs does work, but for some reason it ends up in some really weird stuff happening. In the Loading form, I have it set to do "Form1.Show()" and then "Me.Close()", assuming it would simply show the login form and then close the Loading form. However, when this happens, the Loading form closes, and then for only an instant Form1 shows, and then the Loading form shows and Form1 closes. This happens forever until I stop the debugging, and I can't seem to figure out why. Am I using the wrong method? What exactly does Me.Close() do anyways? All I want to do is close the form and open another
View 5 RepliesVS 2008 - IDE Bug - Make Certain Forms Automatically Close After A Timeout Period
Sep 14, 2010I caused the VB.NET2008 IDE to do something extremely odd and unintentional with some code I was writing. As some of you know, I mostly write programs for industrial equipment. On one of our products, I needed to make certain forms automatically close after a timeout period. To do this, I began programming a usercontrol with a Timer on it (interval = 1000) and a ProgressBar. Timer.Enabled was set to the Enabled event so I could toggle it. When the control counted to it's timeout period, it would call Me.ParentForm.Close
So I build my project, and drop it on a form in the IDE and I see it begins counting! Huh... I had no idea timers were active in the IDE. I wonder what happens when it hit's it's trigger? I figure probably nothing since Me.ParentForm was actually the designer. When it triggered, the whole IDE crashes without save. I tried it twice now. Here's my

View 12 RepliesForms :: When Me.close() Doesn't Close Form
Mar 2, 2009I have a situation where me.close() doesn't close the form. I have a form with a button with the code seen below. What happens when the button is clicked is the new form shows, but the original form(calling form) is still there. When I go into debug mode, I can see the me.close() execute, but nothing happens (calling form stays open). When I close the second form both forms close. If I comment out the call for the second form to open the first form closes without problem.

View 1 RepliesForms :: Multiple Forms Open And Close
Apr 16, 2009I have two forms frmMain and frmNew, and one module modMain. In modMain I hold public variables which are needed for application. My question is how to open and close those two forms when needed? I ask this because if i set frmMain as startup form, then when closed, application will end, and one of those two forms will always be displayed. Also if I set frmNew as startup form, then when I close this form, application will also end. Is there a way to do this from module or something so my application won't end after closing and opening any of those two forms?

Dispose Managed Objects In 2008?
Jun 1, 2011In My application, I have an MDI form. From MDI form I open all forms as child forms. I have implemented IDisposable for all large objects like file stream DB connection etc. In the Form_Disposed event I dispose all unmanaged objects. After the child form is closed, all unmanaged objects are disposed but managed objects (controls and form) are not disposed and still in memory. I find it from .Net Memory Profiler ([URL]).
So I have write code to remove all event handlers of all controls and form. Now, When form closed, dispose is called and all event handlers and controls are disposed, but controls and form are still in memory.
VS 2008 Call Dispose On Brushes?
Sep 16, 2009In my Zeal to get with the "Dispose" program, I implement a dispose pattern (still learning the ways and means of THAT) wherever it seems to make sense.I THINK I have the basic idea. However, I notice that, while Drawing.Brushes HAVE a Dispose method, when I call it, some sort of instability is created in Visual Studio itself, and i get the dreaded "Visual Studio has encountered an error and needs to close" splash screen, with no useable error information. SHould I assume that one should just NOT call dispose on Brush objects, or is there something I am missing here: [code]

Feb 18, 2010I want to understand a situation; it's related to datatable clear().I have a code that populate a typed datatable from Excel in a separate thread using a backgroundworker. This works well, the table is filled and I can see the data. Now, I want to clear the data from table and restart the import. The operation is ten times slower than the first time. My datatable variable is declared like this:Private dt as new DataTable - not a local variableI want that all subs from class to be able to use the table, that's the reason I declared the table as private. What I want is to be able to create a new instance of dt (or clear allocated memory) - maybe this is the reason for slowdown.
