C# - Asynchronously Fired Event Run Synchronously On A Form?
May 17, 2010
[VS 2010 Beta with .Net Framework 3.5]I've written a C# component to asynchronously monitor a socket and raise events when data is received. I set the VB form to show message boxes when the event is raised. What I've noticed is that when the component raises the event synchronously, the message box blocks the component code and locks the form until the user closes the message. When it's raised asynchronously, it neither blocks the code, nor locks the form.
What I want is a way to raise an event in such a way that it does not block the code, but is called on the same thread as the form (so that it locks the form until the user selects an option.)
I have a program I would like to release, has 2 programs within it.1. The main program. 2. A resource utility.To release it, i'm going to package them both up using a 3rd party setup maker.Now, the question is this.I noticed in the snippets...theres 2 options.Update application synchronously or asynchronously. First, whats the difference between the 2?Also, could I utilize that so it'll update from the clickonce, so I dont have to keep repackaging it?Also, I want all updates to be mandatory, vs optional like in clickonce default updates..where it gave the user the option to skip.Reasoning is, for cracks, hacks, etc, if it is modified, and i notice cracks, etc. it'll update and replace any cracks, etc. No "skip the update, so the hack/crack continues to work".
I'm having an issue where my main form isn't updating even though I see the event fire off. Let me explain the situation and share some of my code which I'm sure will be horrible since I'm an amateur. I created a class to take in the settings for running a process in the background. I add some custom events in that class so I could use that in my form instead of a timer.
Back in the VB6 days, I could count on frmWhatever_Resize() to be fired when a form is loaded. That doesn't still seem to be the case. Since my resize event is filled with all the code I want that adjusts the size and placement of things, I decided to just call it from the end of the form's load event. That has no affect. I'm guessing that the form isn't actually shown until form_load is finished?
is there some other event that is fired when a form is shown, so I can call my resize code there?
I have menu item, in which I have specified ShortCutKeys as "Del". On click of menu item I have called specific method. I have one form on which one textbox is placed. When I hit the "Del" key the same method which gets called on menu item click is fired. I want the default behaviour to be followed by the textbox. how to suppress the event to be fired and to achive the default behaviour of the textbox or other controls present on the form.
I migrate a project from vb6 to vb.net.In vb.net project form's events are fired randamly. I mean form_Activated event are fired first after that form_Load event are fire. and this events are fired more than one time.what condition form_Activated event fired before form_Load event.
In VB .NET, when you call RaiseEvent X(), is the function that handles the event X processed asynchronously or synchronously. I was under the impression that RaiseEvent and the processing of the event were Synchronous unless created explictly on another thread. I've been told otherwise though.
I have a flash video player embedded in a page which has javascript calls for it's controls, specifically calling playStarted() when the play button is pressed. I want to capture this event asynchronously to record when people are actually playing the video versus visiting the page, but I'm not really sure how to do this.
I was thinking the "hack" of a way would be to create a javascript function called playStarted() that would post the video ID to a separate ASP.NET page that would then record it to SQL (where I store my data on page visits and where I want to store my data on video plays.)
But ideally there is a better way to do this where I can register the javascript to the script manager so it can trigger a public sub asynchronously when it's called
I have VC++ windows service running on a windows 2008 server which invokes a VB.NET exe with certain comandline parameters using CreateProcess(). VB.NET application has a form wich uses WithEvents to handle certain event. These event handlers are set in the Forms Load event. Problem here is when i debug the VB.NET application individually the application works fine, Forms Load event is getting fired. But when the exe is invoked via the windows service the form Load event does not get fired. Note the Forms Show function called and not showdialogue.
Why this was done i am not sure it was a VB 6.0 code which i have converted to VB.NET. But everything works fine when i debug the application individually on windows 2008 64 bit.
I have a datagridview that completely updates anytime changes are made to it. It is not connected to a source but rather the datagrid is filled when first launched.
I am developing application which will read credit card no without generating keystrokes for same in POS for .net. I can enable device but when I swipe a card MSR_Dataevent is not firing. EDIT: I have done below code:
I'm using Systray for MDIform. The problem that I'm facing is MDIForm_MouseMove event sometimes doesn't get fired and therefore application gets stuck. After several click then all of a sudden it works for few clicks and then again get stuck.
I'm creating a dynamic gridview in vb.net using a connected sql database. Everything works fine except 1 thing: when i click the update command, the event just won't fire no matter what I do. the gridview goes into edit mode and the cancel button works fine. This has cost me over 2 days of googling but none of the solutions work. I used breakpoints to check if the code was executed, but it wasn't. If anybody has any experience in this:I believe the problem lies in the addhandler but it doesn't give any errors.I forgot to mention that the sql command was a test and sets the data in that field to 15, now it's 10, it works when i use a normal button or a static gridview.

created a control inheriting a textbox. it is used to format a datetime data. i created a custom property DateTimeFormatMask which is "MM/dd/yyyy" by default. problem i'm having is that when datatable is filled by adapter and the textbox is populated with the data, it is not formatted..i placed the codes that formats the data in the Validating Event which doesn't seem to be triggered at this point.below is my code on my
When the user clicks a cell in a new row (the row headed by the *) I am populating a column with an integer that is incremented in the "DefaultValuesNeeded" event. However, when the user clicks off the row (having done nothing to the row), what event gets fired? I need to decrement my counter but can't locate an appropriate place to do it.
I have a project which has a couple of tabs on form, an usercontrol is on the 2nd tab, when the form loads, i want the load event method of the usercontrol to fire, and the message box should pop up.Please see the attach file, the message box only pop up after the form is loaded and the 2nd tab is clicked, not when just the parent form is loaded.
I am writing a program to access the remote file data using FTP on button click event. Set breakpoint in the fist line of button click event. That program is using windows application vb.net 2008. If I run the application, when I click the button, it does not fire a click event of the button.
Here's my code: Dim reqFTP As FtpWebRequest Dim filepath As String Dim filename As String Dim filename1 As String Dim ftpserverip As String [Code] ..... During run time when I click the button the control not entered to an click event.
I have a class that is stored after serialization and compression.Is there any event built in the class that is fired automatically when a class is deserialized and ready to be used??
I know that there is usually a DoDragDrop method that starts a drag and drop operation. And that there are events (such as DragEnter, DragOver, DragDrop, DragLeave) that can be handled on the target side.
Are there any events on the source of the dragdrop that will tell me whether the dragdrop operation was completed, or possibly cancelled?
Is there a way to find out if the "TextChanged" event is fired because the user is typing into a textbox or the programmer called myTextBox.Text = "something"? I don't want to react when the user is typing each letter into the textbox so I am using the "Validated" event to catch when the user is done so I can react. The problem is I don't have a way to catch when the programmer does "myTextbox.Text = "something". The only way I know to catch changes there is to use TextChanged but then I don't want to be reacting when the user is typing each letter into the textbox.
I am using VB.NET for Windows applications. What is the difference between Load event,Activate event and Enter event in the Form and in which order the above event is executed.
How do run processes synchronously from a thread or backgroundworker thread? Is it even possible?We have program that allows the user to download several files from a remote server, compress them, and then email the files.It has several long running processes that must run in order. We want these to run on a separate thread so as not to make the form unresponsive. Does a way exist to do this? We attempted a rather clumsy way of approaching this problem by using background worker threads. When each thread is completed and returned back to RunWorkerCompleted, we start another background worker thread and repeat the the next process. It works somewhat but seems to take a lot of resources to run.
What's the best way of running an arbitrary number of Load() methods asynchronously and then ensuring DoSomethingWithValues() runs when all asynchronous threads have completed (of course without incrementing a variable every time a callback happens and waiting for == 3)
