[code] For some reason, and I don't know why. The same CustomSplashScreen that had a handle for UpdateText shows to not have a handle when I call .Close().So basically it would show the splashscreen and update the text, but the form would be left opened and not closed like it is supposed to be.
View 2 Replieswhere I am starting another thread which opens a form. Succinctly, it is an animated "Please wait.. processing" type of form. The issue is that I want to make this form a child form of the parent (main thread or main GUI) when I open it.The issue is that I prefer to use frmProcessing.ShowDialog(frmMain) instead of just frmProcessing.Show, because of form disappearing issues. It, of course, gives me an error of illegal cross thread operation. My question is, how do I perform frmProcessing.ShowDialog(frmMain) to show from within another thread, that the newly opened form is actually a child of the main thread. Is there a better way for me to make a small processing form telling the user to be patient while background processes are working? [code]

The problem is, I have an error in the red lines.The error is: INVALIDOPERATIONEXCEPTION "Cross-Thread operation not valid: Control tbPlaca1 Accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on."I don't use cross threading. Each TB only was accessed for the correspondent thread, and for the "main program".
This is the error message I am getting:
"Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Panel1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on." The reason I am getting this error is because I am opening up a new form and then calling these three things:
Panel1.Show()
Label1.Show()
Label2.Show()
why I get this error message because it doesn't occur normally if I open Form2 after closing Form1, it only occurs when I open Form2 after closing Form4.

Would anyone be able to help me here please. I'm fairly new to VB.net and threading so im just trying to figure out what is happening.When I debug this I am getting the error thread operation not valid: Control 'ProgressBar1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
I'm a little lost as to why the error is occuring or how to fix it. I've had to put the progress bar in a separate thread otherwise the GUI crashes
[Code]...
My understanding is that thread.join will suspend the execution of code on the calling thread until the spawned thread finishes or is aborted...
With that in mind, I tried this:
For i = 1 to 50
threads = New Thread(AddressOf test)
threads.IsBackground = True
threads.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA)
[CODE]...
However, the rest of the code runs when the loop finishes, not waiting for all the spawned threads to finish. Since the rest of the code needs the threads to finish (otherwise the rest will error).

I have written an application that loads a form - frmCad as well as AutoCad. It does this via a class which detects when AutoCad quits.
Friend Class CadApp Private WithEvents AppObject As AcadApplication... Private Sub AppObject_BeginQuit(ByRef Cancel As Boolean) Handles AppObject.BeginQuit RaiseEvent Quit() End SubEnd Class
My main class loads frmCad as well as CadApp.
Public Class Cad Private WithEvents frmCad As CadForm Private WithEvents app As CadApp... Public Sub ShowForm() If frmCad Is Nothing Then frmCad = New CadForm frmCad.Visible = True End Sub... Private Sub app_Quit() Handles app.Quit frmCad.Dispose() frmCad = Nothing .... End Sub
When I debug the program, it stops at frmCad.Dispose()The program continues to execute, but all the code after it fails to work.Looking more carefully I get an error message which contains:-Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Autocad' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.

i used it and it works fine then. but as it is mentioned its not a good practice to use it. So what should i do? is it ok if i use this as i am not able to use correct practice. Mine application is not for enterprise purpose. its just my class project, and it works fine even if i put application working in background. System works ok. I dont know how to correct this error.As i dont have that much knowlege of threads.
So please guide me how to fix this in correct way otherwise i am force to go for bad programming practice

I've got a form that acts as a progress report for a long running operation, it has a listview on it (which I might be replacing with a DGV soon) that gets updated with progress updates from a background thread that is doing all the work. The method running on the background thread raises events that the form then handles and adds the string passed in to this event to the listview. The method running on the background thread raises progress update events several times a second and for each of these updates the event handler on the form must invoke a method on the UI thread to actually add the item to the listview.
This works fine on my test PC (which has a quad core CPU and 8 GB of RAM) but others have reported that after a while the form goes to the Not Responding state so I'm assuming all of these updates on the UI thread are being requested too often for it to be able to process them all as well as user input.So I'm looking for a better solution and have come up with the following:When the background thread raises these progress updated events, instead of them being added to the listview instantly I add them to a Queue(Of String). Then every second the form would check this queue and remove any items currently in it and add them to the listview - using a Queue(Of T) instead of a List(Of T) should guarantee they come out in the correct order. Both of these operations (adding to the queue and reading/removing from it) would be done under a SyncLock block that would lock on the same object to avoid both threads trying to work with the queue at the same time, so there would still be some contention but I'm hoping it would mean the UI thread only gets busy once a second instead of potentially roughly 30 times a second as it is doing now.Does that sound like a good plan? Can anyone think of a better way of handling this?
I'm calling a c++ dll I made myself - and it appears to be very VERY not thread safe!
I'm referencing it like this

Public Shared Function firstIndexOfKeyword(ByVal s As String, ByVal substr As String(), ByVal substrLength As Integer, ByVal markers As Integer()) As Integer End Function
Is there a way to make this IMPORT create something more threadsafe?

View 5 RepliesIs there anyway to create an OS or Managed thread, so that it can never be interrupted. Thread/Process priorities are not enough.
View 2 RepliesUsually I use the synchronizationcontext to run methods on my GUI thread from a background thread. But now I need to do it the other way around and the synchronizationcontext class doesn't work on threads that don't have a GUI. What I basically need to do is, if there is anything going on on the thread I want to run my method on, I want to pause or interrupt it and run my method and then let it continue.

It's getting Object reference not set to an instance of an object.The FILEID key being added is F1. F2, F3 and F4 are in the dictionary. Seems like F1 arrived and the object wasn't properly setup. Or thread-slice caused me to see a partially messed with dictionary list?How can I make that a thread safe operation? I thought dropping out to the UI thread was a safe place to mess with code like this? Oddly enough I can go to the immediate window and do this
m_FSObCollection.Add("F" + rrFSOb.FileId.ToString, rrFSOb)
?m_FSObCollection.Count 4
ex.data is a dictionary list that looks like this

I have created a class with a public sub which has a variable with it using byval:
Public Class clsMessenger
Public Sub Messenger(ByVal Port As Integer)

Dim ClientConnection As New clsMessenger
Dim ClientThread As New Threading.Thread(AddressOf ClientConnection.Messenger)
ClientThread.Start()
I can't use a global variable because there is going to be multiple instances of this routine running on different threads and each time the variable to be passed will be different.
