VS 2010 Multithreading With WIA
May 11, 2010
I'm using the WIA Aut. Library [URL] , trying to capture photos from 5 digital cameras (Nikon D90) USB-connected to my pc. Now, I partially achieved my goal, what I do is:
- loop through the attached devices, connecting to every camera;
- fotocamera.ExecuteCommand (WIA.CommandID.wiaCommandTakePicture) ;
- other image processing operations...
Everything works fine but... the workflow is camera1 -> connect -> grab pic. => camera 2 -> connect -> grab pic. => camera 3.....

I just put a button and a textbox on a form to try and learn to multi thread, i think i've done it correctly. but it still appears to freeze for a little bit just before it attempts to display the data. i think it's the invoking. Is it normal / have a done something wrong?

explain to me why the 1st example gives me an error complaining about cross thread yada yada....but the second doesn't, and works? this is inside a worker thread function
[code...]
I understand the concept of needing delegates and all that jazz when working with multiple threads, but why give me an error if there's no invoke required anyway?

I am developing a software that catches streaming data. Unfortunately, there is no pattern or sequence on how this data comes in. So what I have initially done is to catch then write to my MS Access DB. Unfortunately, while writing to the DB, I am missing some data that is streaming since writing takes a little bit of time before it goes back to the catching syntax.
I am planning to multithread the DB writing then just call it from my main program. Do guys know any website/tutorial where I can learn the basics for multithreading? I am using Visual Studio 2010. Or if ever, does any one of you have a sample program where I can just learn from?

I'm writing a really simple file updater which downloads files off from a website and saves them. The download routine is working well, except that it freezes the project while attempting to connect to the host. Easily solved with threading except now when I try to access other form items such as text boxes, labels, form caption, it says I am not doing it in a safe manner and prompts an interrupt in debug. I did some reading on it and I'm still not sure what to do, I'm very new to vbnet and it is still a little confusing to me.
Error: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Form1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.

The error occurs at: For i As Integer = 0 To txt_load.Lines.Count - 1..The project exists of 2 rtb's. One with a list of lines. The other will be filled with the converted lines. The main reason that I use it is that I want to use the app during the conversion. The second is that I want to learn how this works.[code]

Right now I have a Email class that has all the properties of an email to send it, and then a SendEmail function which takes those properties and uses them in the following
Public Function SendEmail()
'Exception handling
Try
[Code]....
The loop goes through each email in the array to process its email, however with the multithreaded function I cannot call
"EmailArray(i).ThreadSendBatchEmail()"
So how do I call an objects method when its on a different thread?
And I'm making it multithreaded so I can easily pause the process, and because the program freezes when the send() function is working, this would resolve that.

I am using an Application server for calling Oracle Reports and I have a URL to call the report. When the report is called the server converts it into PDF but when report contains large data it takes a lot of time to load. I want to do in asp.net that when I call the report url it opens the PDF file and copies it into the root of my web folder. The next time when I call the URL it opens the PDF file and creates a new PDF on backend for next call. I have made this function to download file

Basically I am making a proxy testing program. A user can supply a list of proxies to test. What i want to be able to do is have them be able to specify how many threads they want to run. Then have the program go through the list testing each one using the amount of threads supplied. Really not sure even where to start on this. Threadpooling?

What does common data or data that's in a common, look and is treated by multithreading? I'm quite aware that acess to such data would have to be synchronized, but beyond that is it acessible?

I have a class with a background worker in it that does some tasks on a separate thread. I want to fire some events from the background worker thread to the 'main thread' of the class, so that when using this class your not obliged to go make invoke calls for every event handler your using.I'm at a loss of how to do this though. When having a similar problem in a form of usercontrol I always use Me.Invoke, but this method is not present in a class inheriting system.object.

I have a screen that checks for alerts every 30 seconds by looking up outstanding issues from a database.When there is an alert, an audio file is played depending on the alert.It takes 1-2 seconds to grab this audio file which caused an issue with global screen freezing, so I added multithreading where it plays the sound file. This seemed to work fine.However I am new to multithreading and am not sure if I'm working with it efficiently..I have simply declared the sound-playing function as a thread at the top:[code]I am unsure if starting and aborting the thread is the right way to do it. However if I suspend or make the thread sleep I would have to determine whether it has been run before.

I have read many articles on multithreading over the past few days and so far I'm fairly comfortable with how it works. I am now working on my actual application, and have come across a few design issues that I'm hoping somebody has experience with.The basic premise of the application is simple. A database filled with files names and a "converted" field that has a 1 or a 2 in it (1 for unconverted, 2 for converted). The application loops through every record where "converted" = 1, retrieve the file and convert it.
My single threaded application works fine, except its far too slow. Due to the huge amount of rows in the database (4 million+) and the time constraints on the project, I have decided to run as many threads as the hardware can allow to cut down on the timings.So, the dilemma is accessing database records and which threads should grab which record and how.

I have a function in my program that adjust sales for multiple days. Sometimes it needs to adjust up to 3 months and the tasks takes a while so I decided to split up the work between multiple threads. The way I have it working is say I need to adjust 3 months. I have the first thread adjust sales for the 1st month, the second thread adjust sales for the 2nd month and finally a third thread that will adjust sales for the 3rd month. Since all three threads are performing the same tasks except for different date range they use the same procedures. Within those procedures I make a call to the database to extract the sales for the given month. At some point it seems like the threads start to use the same SQL Data Objects because I am receiving the below error."There is already an open DataReader associated with this Command which must be closed first."Below is the first procedure that is ran by each thread up to the line where it errors out.
Private Sub Process_Adjustments(ByRef objAdjustBillCodeThreadParameters As clsAdjustBillCodeThreadParameters)
Dim cmd As SqlClient.SqlCommand
[code]....
So all three threads call this subroutine and the first thread does the data fill with no issues and then sometimes even the second thread does the data fill with no issue but then the third thread crashes and produces the above error. It seems as though the threads are sharing the same SQL Objects when all objects are local to the sub and I always thought each thread had it's own memory to work with. So I thought each thread would call the sub create it's own objects in memory, but that does not seem like what it's doing. I have other multithreading processes in my application that work perfectly fine, this is the first time I am attempting to multithread in this manner where I am using the same procedure within multiple threads.
Just thought of something that I might be doing wrong. The subroutine in question is in the same class where the threads are created. Should the subroutine be in it's own class, and therefore each instantiation of that class?

I try to use Multithreading with VB 2005. I added a Listbox to main form and i tried to fill ListBox with 2 threads. When i executed code it told me that this is unsafety operation becasuse of ListBox is created with Main(Form1) form.
Is there anybody who has such simple multithreading example with Mutex or such lock mechanism?

You can create "shooting-threads" while looping through the device then launch 'em all.Done.It's still in a 'serial' way... :-(((Why? is executeCommand() a synchronized method? If I madly-fast click on two 'grab pictures' button of windows XP WIA dialog it works.. Is there something about .NET multithreading I don't know?

I am looking into using a producerconsumer threading pattern to run through a list of strings that i retrieve from a database and then am going to run powershell commands against. As the powershell commands can be quite intensive i only want to spawn 3 threads at a time and then wait for one thread to finish before doing anymore. I looked into the treadpool but it looks like it is used for more lightweight processing.

I want to download some imagefile from a multilinetextbox and right now i m using this code
Multiline textbox contains :
[URL]
Code 1 :
Code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim ary() As String = TextBox2.Text.Split(Environment.NewLine)
[Code]....
because in both cases it will download file one by one and i want to do my job as fast as possible by sharing the multilinetextbox data among set of thread's but how to do i dunno
Like if i multilinetextbox contain 100 image file link and i want to run 3 thread at a time then these 3 thread will share/Access the multilinetextbox data what will be the my final code ?

I am developing an FTP program which: Watches a folder. If a new file is dropped there then upload it. Tells user if uploading and when complete. All the above works, however I wan to add the items to a listbox that are being uploaded. So if I dropped 3 items there it would look like :
Upload Listbox:
cake.jpg
myExcelFile.xls
woot.docxAnd as each one is done, or new files are added it removes them or adds them.
I tried using que, but with no luck as the program just hangs whilst it uploads. So I had a search and looked into multithreading and I tried to implement it, but I can't get it to work as it gives me some 'delegate signature' related error message as you can't pass in values when trying to use 'AddressOf'.
Here is my code for the The .created sub:
Public Sub FSystemWatcher_Created(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.FileSystemEventArgs) Handles FSystemWatcher.Created
'if any file created add fullpath to the listbox
ChangeLog.Items.Add("Created: " & e.Name)
QueueListBox.Items.Add(e.Name)
