I've a vb.net web application where I'm referring to another vb.net dll by adding the reference of the dll and creating the object but after the call it waits for dll to finish operation and return a value before moving forward, is there a way I can do the same job asynchronously.
View 4 RepliesI 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 am writing a program for a class and it needs to read/write to an Access 2007 database. Right now I am referring to it's absolute path when I use it in connection strings, something like:
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:UsersMeDocumentsVisual StudioProjectsProject1Database.accdb")
This is going to be a problem when I turn it in obviously, because the professor isn't going to have the same path. So I want to somehow include it into my project and then refer to it with a relative path or something so that it will work on his machine. When I imported it through the Data Sources it had an option at the end to copy the database into the project which I agreed to. It put the Database where all of the source files are on my computer, so I tried using Application.StartupPath(
I have this code List<string> myList = new List<string>();
myList.AddRange(new MyClass1().Load());
myList.AddRange(new MyClass2().Load());
myList.AddRange(new MyClass3().Load());

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)

I have a listbox of items that need to be processed, and I would like to process them asynchronously on a separate thread. (Never done this before).So I created a Delegate, a Callback, called the method that does the work on the listbox items.
I am getting an exception "System.InvalidOperationException": Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'ListBoxBlah' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
Doing the asynchronous operation for individual items doesn't make sense to me because I am only doing it to perhaps perform a large number of operations (the listbox may have 20000 items) in the background while allowing the user to do other stuff.

I currently have a web application project that also includes web services within the same project. I currently have a requirement to call the web service asynchronously. Since, I haven't added the web service as a web reference within the same project, I tried to call the web service method using delegates and I see an exception "HttpContext is not available. This class can only be used in the context of an ASP.NET request" when I tried to access the Application property in my web service method call.

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.

[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 working code to read an RSS feed that uses:
Dim doc As New XmlDocument
doc.Load("http://...")
Dim channel As XmlElement = doc("rss")("channel")
Dim items As XmlNodeList = channel.GetElementsByTagName("item")
Unfortunately the doc.Load call causes the rest of the program to become unresponsive until it finishes.What's the best way to perform the load asynchronously and have a callback function to process the data?Edit: Here's the code I've tried using WebClient - the Load method is still lagging:
Private Sub checkResults()
'request rss feed
Dim w As New System.Net.WebClient
[code]....
The rssReadCallback method is executed fairly quickly after calling checkResults, but then the UI freezes during the Load method.
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 need to call a stored proc from a .NET web page which takes around 15 min to process. We do not want user not to be able to browse the website in the meanwhile. Is calling it asynchronously the way to go or are there any other recommended ways?

I want to upload a large file of tracking numbers and process them into our ordering system.
I used to use Server.ScriptTimeout = 3000
It worked until we upgraded our servers and now it crashes.
I'm Getting This webpage is not available The connection to www.YourSite.com was interrupted.
I could see the .csv file has been uploaded, but many tracking numbers do not get processed.
I'm thinking of maybe switching to a asynchronous update. But I cannot find any good source for it.
If you have any good ideas, please let me know.
I've been reading up on asynchronous function / web pages for ASP.NET 3.5 (we're not using v4 yet) but the ones I've seen all focus on performing a background task but then still coming back to finish up and send the response, after the task is complete.
What I want to do is simply kick off the background task (in this case a call to a web service) but then return a response to the browser immediately - ie. without waiting for the asynchronous task to complete. I don't even need to know if it succeeds or not.What is the best way to do that? I can't seem to find examples of kicking off what you might call an "orphan" background task in ASP.NET.
I thought of doing it via a javascript Ajax call on the page I show to the user, but the information passed to the web service is sensitive, so that's out of the question. But that kind of illustrates what I want to do.
[ed] Another idea: Is there an event in the ASP.NET model I can use which occurs after the response has been sent to the browser and the connection closed? ie. So more processing can occur without the user waiting for it?

A text file exists on my server machine which is constantly being updated (about once about 5 seconds). On my web page, I'd like a div to display this file live using jQuery inside MVC.
I have the jQuery timer working already, but the file isn't displaying. My plan was to get the jQuery to load a Controller Action every 5 seconds and have this action return a FilePathResult.
The script:
$(function () {
var streamer = $("div.wrapper div.streamer");
//===

LiveStreamPath contains the path to the text file. I was thinking of creating a StreamReader in the Action instead. What sorts of implementations can I use to get this file to stream?

View 3 RepliesIs there a possible way to refer an object through it's name in Vb.Net?The case is, I have menu items created in my designer with names such as MenuA, MenuB and MenuC.On the database, I created a table consisting the list of all available menus in string format : MenuA, MenuB all the way to MenuZ.
Also I created a dynamic table consisting the user permission, what menu is accessible by a certain user.So when I started the app, it will get the name of menu assigned to the logged user, and start to turn the Visible property to TRUE.If it was a Control, I would just loop through it by Parent.Controls.Find(FoundMenu, True).My problem is most of it is not a control, it is an Item added to the Control, or even another SubItem added to the Item.So how can I found an object in my UI only by it's name?
SearchQuery = "SELECT menu_name FROM tbl_menulist menu, tbl_user user WHERE menu.id_menu = user.id_menu"
QueryReader = ExecuteQueryReader(SearchQuery)
QueryReader.Read()
