Created A New Thread To Run With A Loop To Update A Textbox
Apr 17, 2009
I created a new thread to run with a loop to update a textbox (this is just a demo, in reality this thing would go out to a db every x minutes to request an update). I did this on a timer, but i wanted to try to do it on a different thread.. anyways, this is what I have: (one form, one textbox, and this code...)[code]I'm getting a warning through (the "Thread.CurrentThread.Sleep(2000) part is underlined) which states:"Access of Shared Member, Constent Member, enum Member, or Nested Type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated".

In one application, I need use 4 simultaneous threads.When the threads finished, I need to update the text of a TextBox.So, I create 4 Textbox, and I wanna the threads change the text to FINISHED.Each thread change one distinct TB.I use this "example"
Dim Terminados As Integer = 0
Private Sub frmEnviarMensagem_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Timer1.Enabled = True
Timer1.Start()
[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

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 have a textbox which will accept a user input for a email address or phone number.I want to using a new thread do a search for various results and populate a listbox.I know i need to do this in another thread so my main form will still operate but how can I do this? I've never used threads before and I know it's tricky to get the values from a textbox and also update a list box on another thread.

im still stuck and i really to get past this and move onto the rest of my program. I'm trying to update a textbox with new text from another class on another thread. I can get this to work no problem on another thread with the same class, and on the same thread in another class. but not on another thread on another class. my code looks like this, when it is run to produces no errors but does not add the test to the text box, what is wierd is i had made some changes to the program to add multiplelines to consolebox.text and then checked console.text from form2 and it produces the values i added but those arent reflected inside in the consolebox for some reason.

I am having trouble accessing the main thread (my form) when calling thread is running in a class (or module). I have no problem to manipulate a data (in a thread) from a form, the textbox can be updated using delegate and invokerequired but it doesn't seem as easy when the thread that processes a variable is handled by a thread that is running in a class.

However, when I run this starting form I receive this error:An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'AxMappointControl1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.[code]I mention that the very same project was upgraded from VS 2005 on which worked just fine.

I have a program that runs for some time and I would like to update the user on its progress. The rest of the GUI is updated using Delegates and Invokes and such (Java is Soooo much cleaner in this regard - everything is thread safe!!), but there is no invoke method for the progress bar. How can I use a delegate to update the progress bar when there is no invoke to invoke!!

I have an app (vb.net) that sues multi threading and have tow problems.
1. The program is used for trading currency markets and mointers prices all day. When a signal is generated it wil place a trade in a new thread. In the new thread it checks to see if a trade is on already and if so it will not place another trade.The problem is it can be too fast and place another trade before the server has processed the first trade. So trade count returns 0. As the system watches 6 accounts I can not just pause the other thread to make sure it has finished before trying ot place another trade.How to i check to make sure the first thread is finished so when i check for trade count it retuns 1?
2.The new thread is inside a class and has a logging class as well. The problem is writing to the text box on the main thread. As the logging thread is created in the new thread it has no access to the textbox. I have tried using invoke but it still does not write to text box as it does not exist in the new thread.How do i reference a form from a class that was created in a new thread?

I have need of either enumerating all the managed threads in a application or listen to when a new thread is created. I can not find anyway to do this through searching the web. It strikes me as odd the the IDE can list all the manage threads, but I can't.
If this is not possible, is there clarification as to why this is not possible.
I need to create a shared class in a DLL that will when it receives a signal will stop all the threads currently running, and gracefully exit the application.

On the new of a form i create a control by going:
MyControl = New ctlTest
but it errors saying that ctlTest was accessed from another thread to the one it was created on that line...The control starts a thread on the new event of it that draws on the control - now i know that the thread itself works because when i put a button on the control to start the thread it works..

I'm trying to have a for each loop in which 5 labels should be created.Each time the loop restarts the 5 labels should appear in a tabpage.The problem is, it only makes a label once, then it keeps on mving the label to a different tab instead of creating a new one for each tab.
It loops 5 times, thus filling 5 labels.Then the next 5 labels should get filled in a new tab.But it just moves the original labels. How do I force it to create a new label each time?

What I am trying to do is dynamically create a bunch of dropdown lists and then I want to loop through them and update the database with those values, but the problem I am facing is that I create the dropdown lists, but then when I go back to loop through them they are no longer in the panel. I don't know why but when I am debugging I have a count of 50 controls in pnlTeacherSelect right up until I press the button that calls prcChoose.

Is there a way I can run a loop in a seperate thread and increment a progress bar each time the loop iterates? I am trying to run a loop that will take a long time to complete and I dont want the form to be completely crashed out while the loop is running. There are only two ways I can think to solve the problem. The first way is to run the loop on a timer. This is extremely slow. The other way is to use a thread.

For i = 0 To 9
Dim Browser As New WebBrowser
Browser.Name = "Browser" & [i]
Browser.Navigate("[URL]")
Browser.Visible = True
Next
So now I will have 10 webbrowsers aimed for google, right? So how do I make a loop that clicks the search button 10 times? I know I need to use member_invoke like this
Browser.Document.GetElementById("search").InvokeMember("click")
But I have no clue how to code the loop.

I wanted to simply on click a button to add those newly created textboxes to an array of textboxes. Starting with those labeled "Address". But I am finding this very difficult. I am able to add those originally on the form into the array very easily. But am unable to add the newly created textboxes into the array.
Here is my code so far below.
Public Class Form1
Dim MyBoxes() As TextBox = {Address, UserName, Password}
Dim Numbox As Integer = 1
