Creating A Form In A New Thread (From An Event)

Aug 24, 2010

I have a small form that notifies the user on the completion of events (such as SMO restore). I want this form to appear from various sources (such as the below SMO Restore complete event) so I guess I need to create a new thread before creating the form? As it could be called from outside the UI thread. (I also need to pass a string to this form)

Update The Button Text On A Form From A Backgroundworker.do_work Event, And It Failed With The Usual Cross-thread Exception Message?

Nov 14, 2011

I tried to update the button text on a form from a backgroundworker.do_work event, and it failed, with the usual cross-thread exception message.However, by pure chance, I also tried to update text in a system.windows.form.toolstripstatuslabel also from this backgroundworker.do_work event, and it DOES work. Question: why is this? Is it perhaps because theres some kind of implicit shared behaviour with system.windows.form.toolstripstatuslabel?

Load The Main Form Of A WPF So That A Separate Thread Goes And Gets Data From The Database While The Form Is In An Apartmentstate?

May 15, 2012

How do i load the Main form of a WPF so that a seperate thread goes and gets data from the database while the form is in an apartmentstate? (drag-able / movable) I Know this is possible with opening a new window from your main form like this :

Private Sub openOrderWindow()
Dim OrderWindow As Orders = New Orders
OrderWindow.ShowDialog()
End Sub

[code]....

I've tried putting MyBase.ShowDialog() and .Show() and .9000+ other things The only benefit I've got out of using a seperate thread to load from the databse is i can see the screen right away (as oppose to it being a transparent box until it loads) but i cannot move it around or minimize it?is there any way to make it Movable while it loads?

Reading And Writing Specfic Line Form A Text File?

Aug 5, 2011

I have the same problem that Niphoet had in this thread: vb .net overwrite a specific line in a text file

I am trying to implement the code that Axarydax showed in C# that I am trying to translate to use into vb.net. My problem is that the code will make my new text file but will not write any of the lines from the other text file to it and just leaves it blank. I think my problem is with the while loop statement but I am not sure.

Cross Thread Error Reading Form Control

Mar 17, 2011

I'm learning VB.NET coming from a VB6 and Java background.In my app, I've got a function that validates the fields on a form. All it is doing is reading them, not updating. I've searched and see info about the backgroundWorker class, but all the examples are about updating the fields.I understand the idea of threading and how it works, but have never written code that spawned threads myself. I've always let the language handle it. It seems like a lot of work that I would have to write a sub using the backgroundWorker for every time I wanted to read or update each field. The couple of books I've got that introduce you to the language show you reading or updating the field directly.How do I know what threads are running other than writing the code like I'm used to then running through debugger to figure out what variables are on which thread?

But it still seemed to be running on the form's thread And just so you know ctlMTTest is just a control that has a button on it, that, when you click the button, a loop runs.

Analyzing Text And Change Into Whole New Groups Of Words

Jan 4, 2012

So, I've started to work on a big project that involves analysing text and changing that text into a whole new group of words that relate to it and say pretty much the same thing but through different text, I'm just looking to see if there is a thesaurus or dictionary I can access through visual basic... instead of having to right every single word in the english dictionary out.. or if there is any shorter way I could do this.

Creating A Progress Bar That Runs On Another Thread While Keeping Calculation In Main Thread

Nov 12, 2009

Preface: I know this is an unusual/improper way to do this. I can do this with a "real" ShowDialog(), background worker/thread, and so on. I am trying to do specifically what I describe here, even if it is ugly. If this is impossible for X reason, I have created a fancy progress dialog for some of our long running operations. I need to have this dialog shown on a new thread while having processing continue on the calling (UI in most cases) thread.

SyncLock / Multithreading - Child Thread Reading The Values Of _do At The Same Time As Another Child Thread Is Reading The Values

Nov 13, 2009

I have a dictionary object (let's call it _do) I am using to cache some values for use in a multi-threaded program. I have a single controlling parent thread, with a timer function _doTimer() which can kick off child threads with a new instance of class MyThreadObject in each. My parent thread has _do as a property and with each time _doTimer() gets called, it may or may not repopulate _do depending on cacheflag settings. I pass a reference to _do to each instance of MyThreadObject and those threads at some point read the values of _do but DO NOT write to it.

What I want is to ensure that the child threads do not try and read _do whilst the parent thread is writing to it. Same thing but very slightly different -> I also don't want the parent thread to write to _do whilst the child threads are reading from it. However there is no problem with 1 child thread reading the values of _do at the same time as another child thread is reading the values - so ideally I do not want each child thread to completely lock out read access, only locking out Write access.. The code is roughly like this:

.net - Form.Load Event Not Firing, Form Showing?

Nov 9, 2010

I fear that there is something obviously wrong with my code, but I have come across a situation where the Form.Load event is not firing when I create and show my form. The form is not subclassed (as I've seen some problems with that in some searches), and I am not getting any errors thrown when I step through the code in the debugger.

I have a break point set on the IDE-created form load function (which does have the Handles MyBase.Load signature suffix) but the breakpoint is never reached and the form does display and work.The form is passed three arguments in the constructor but the IntializeComponent() function is called before anything else is done.

File I/O And Registry :: Analyzing Contents And Writing Manipulated Data

Jul 25, 2009

I am basically reading a text file with info like this:
"S1($=""ChW System Pressure"",V=134.00,%=""Pa""),S2($=""UPS_Batt Rm 1to4 Circ A Flow "",V=9.17,%=""DegC""),S3($=""UPS_Battery Rm Sec ChW Rtn"",V=-38.38,%=""DegC""),S4($=""Buffer Vessel BV-02 High Temp"",V=9.08,%=""DegC""),...

And I'm trying to write a program that read the data, filters the sections so that per line it does the bit before the brackets i.e. "S1" then a comma then the sections inside the brackets as comma separated values removing the double quotes and symbols I don't want etc. Basically dividing the separate S*'s onto different lines and separating the values with comma's. There are also other points which are a different letter than "'S" and the same to do with them to.

What Happens Before Form Load Event

Dec 21, 2011

I have a form and initialize some global variables on its Load Event. There is a TextChanged event in one control (a textbox) that uses that value. The TextChanged event of the control is triggered before the Form's Load event even if I do not change anything on the TextBox, it looks like that happens when the control is loaded. Why is it doing it before the form? and what event can I trap in order to assure it's the first thing that happens?

Its as simple as this:

vb.net
Private Sub PackOutMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ActiveFlag = False

[Code]....

My guess is that the msgbox should not appear until the flag is set to true somewhere in the code and then change the contents of txtUser, but it is shown before the form.
