View 13 RepliesI've been trying to add to a listbox item from a different thread (thread 2) than the thread in which the form/listbox was created (thread 1).
When I check ListBoxItem.InvokeRequired from within thread 2 it is always false when ApartmentState.STA is set. When set to MTA I get an error. Thread 2 is a unique thread with different ID from thread 1.
What is frustrating is that at one point it was working fine, and then I changed some of the structure of the project and it has now stopped working (and I don't know which change caused this! It was a while ago).
This code is within a form class:

Option Explicit On

i have a list box which is populated with the sub folders from a user selected folder, so the listbox item count varies from 2 item to 1000 items etc.The list box code i use to do this is:
Dim lb1s As String = Form1.Folder.SelectedPath
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(lb1s)
Dim mydirInfoArray As IO.DirectoryInfo() = di.GetDirectories
Im trying to make a feature were on a button click the app will create 1 folder for every item on the listbox (named after the list box item)So if theres 3 items on the list box for example:
001
002
band 3
[code]....
And when the user presses the button, the app will create 3 dupe folders (Only the folders, not the contents) in a user selected directory using the same names, ive been tinkering for a little while but cant seem to figure out a way to implement this.
this is going to be hard to explain but ill try. Question 1. Ok i have a list box with a few items, What i want for this example is to click a button and it will start on the first item and do: MsgBox ("this is item blah blah blah") then after that it will go to the next item and do the same and then the next and so on untill all have been done. The "blah blah" should be the item so if item was to say "hello" then the msgbox would say "this item is hello" I know this would be a lot of msgboxes to close, like if 50 items then thats 50 msgboxes to close, this is just for the example.
Question 2. Ok this is where ive tryed to learn but find it really hard (multithreading) Im wanting all to be multithreaded so all work at the same time, ive tryed a few times but the only way i see it is having a **** load of subs, like if i want it to use 10 threads then ill have to add the same code 10 times or somet, im not sure.
i have attempted all this and failed big time as my way was to get the first item and use that then remove it from the listbox BUT... with it being quite fast the 2nd 1 and 3rd 1 used the same item befor it was removed and to be honest i dont really want them removed. so my attempts took like 2-3 days that was a waste of time really. I Know this is a lot to ask but im in real need of it and these 2 things have driven me half mad.
I created a listbox that displays files from a certain directory, and want to know how to actually get information on that file, rather than just the name its self that is displayed in the listbox.
This is what I have:
Dim files() As String = IO.Directory.GetFiles("C:Users" & (System.Environment.UserName) & "Desktop", "*.txt", IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)
Label9.Text = ListBox1.SelectedItem
[Code]....
For Each item As Object In ListBox1.Items
If item.ToString.Contains("http://" Or "www." Or ".com" Or ".net" Or ".org" Or ".biz") Then
I want it to check if item contaisn any of those, then it does something.
what im trying to do is loop threw all listbox items until the listbox item contains say "panda" and stop and give me the index of the item that contains "panda"so i would end up with panda`s selected index
