How to run multiple funcations simultaneously using multithreading concept?
Actually i am making a software which has backend tool as MS ACCESS. it has 15000+ records in database and i need to display that records as my software loads..but it is much time consunable and sometimes it even goes out of time exception
I will connect with one database from several machines. In all machines they need to insert the data in single table. In that time: how to use multithreading and deadlock concepts? Using the MySQL database and also MS Access.
View 2 Repliesi have some test code which i run at every load of a page in my asp.net website [Code] the "dotrace" simply add a record to a log table in the db. now the right result would be that i should have the entries in the db in order "entered","exiting","exited" but actually when i look in the db i see first 2 "entered" then 2 "exiting" etc. meaning that the multi-threading is working ok, but not the synclock. is that correct?
and how can this be fixed? the real code will be adding records to the db and might be called from several pages of different sessions, but the same code must not run twice concurrently. if i open multiple pages at once, they still clash some times. but if i'm correct, the issue is now not with the synclock as much as with the httpruntime.cache, because when using a standard property, on one page, the code works 100%. so how can i make sure that 2 threads, even from totally different sessions never run the trylock simultaneously?
I used different backgroundworkers to instantiate some 'heavy' forms thinking that it will reduce the time to instantiate them if I did them at once but it looks like I am wrong since it is still taking about 43 seconds to load all of them. Am I missing something or do you have a tip on how I can speed up their instantiation?

PlausiblyDamp was kind enough to provide some generic code, which I have modified and attached.
I have made a few alterations mostly around removing random objects, as the game in question (Space Invaders) has a set amount of aliens and set starting positions.
As a start I have limited the UpdatedPostion to horizontal movement as the aliens only go side to side unless they hit an edge.[code]...
I am creating a GUI that monitors the entered application and if the application crashes the GUI starts the application back up. Problem is to run this application (WoW Private Server) I need 3 running applications. Is there a way to shell and wait 3 applications all at once. OR if i was to create a separate console application who's only job was to start the three applications at once how would I pass the application variable?
Here is my program thus far: [URL]
My question is, imagine I have two List(Of T) objects and a subroutine in a multithreaded environment that modifies both of these objects. I don't understand locks very well, so I'm unsure whether I can just do:
SyncLock CType(List1, IList).SyncRoot
List1.Clear()
List2.Clear()

We are looking to design a security application that does the following on laptops:If the ethernet adapter is used (cable plugged in) disable/block all other network connections (wireless WIFI, mobile broadband (PPP), virtual VPN adapters etc)When ethernet adapter is not being used again, all connections allowed.We have looked in the WMI a lot but there are no good ways of doing this. Only disabling the network connection is not secure enough because most mobile broadband applications try to re-establish the connection. This should be an application that works on all laptop vendors without any user interaction (such as choosing interfaces etc..).
View 3 RepliesI'd like to allow the user to select up to an entire column of cells and type and/or paste a single value that would then change the value of all the selected cells in the DataGridView to the value that was typed or pasted. I understand this is probably two separate answers, but perhaps if there is a way to set the contents of the clipboard with the value typed, I was thinking it may work well to identify both things I want to do.

I have been using the My.Computer.Audio.Play method for sounds in my program for a very long time, but now I have reached a point where the program needs to be able to play more than one sound at a time. What is the best (and preferably simplest) way to do this?
View 8 RepliesI want to play multiple sounds simultaneously from My.Resources in Visual Basic 2010. I have tried:My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.SoundName, AudioPlayMode.Background)
I have also tried using multiple Windows Media Player controls, but that also didn't work.The first sound is cut off when the next sound plays.When searching around the internet I found people suggesting using 'DirectSound', but there are only tutorials for DirectSound in VB 6.0.
I'm writing a program which gets the time and date from forums which only show "x hours ago" on the main thread list.What I do is get a list of threads, open their print version and fetch the info.I'm currently using a single webbrowser, because there's no control array anymore. This makes the proccess very slow.Is there a way to open all the threads' print versions simultaneously?(BTW, I'm using DOM functions like GetElementsByTag, so I'll need to get the page's "Document" object.)
View 8 RepliesI have three listboxes with vertical scroll bars. I'd like it so that when one is scrolled, so are the others. However, I can't seem to find a "scroll" event. I tried this:
vb.net
Public Scrolling As Boolean
Private Sub ListBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListBox1.MouseDown
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then

It works when you click and drag on the listbox area where the items are, but not when you click on the scroll bar!
Consider I have a shared function:Public Shared Function CalculateAreaFromRadius(ByVal radius As Double) As Double
[Code]...
If I have two or more threads in the same vb .net app and each of them calls the shared function at the same time with different RADIUS, will they each get their own AREA? I want to know for each call to the function if it is using same local variables or each call creates new instances of local variables?Will the answers to above questions be same If I have multiple (2+) single threaded apps and they all call the function at the same time with different RADIUS value?
Using Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008, I have created a Windows form with multiple tabs and questions. Each question has an associated drop-down listbox that the user will eventually click on to enter his or her response. My client has now informed me that she wants to change the standard responses in each response box. There are well over 100 drop-down listboxes, all with the same items, and they all must be changed.
I originally inputted the items using design view. Would someone please tell me if it's possible to edit all of these boxes in the design view simultaneously? When I control + click on more than one box, the Edit Items option that is normally available disappears. Is there a way to do it in code in a manner that would save back into design view?
I've created a two-worksheet template in Excel - the first sheet is for pretty charts, and the other sheet is for the data that drives those charts. I've written a vb.net 2005 app that can dump in all my data on the second worksheet, and the chart worksheet updates perfectly.I would like to do this report several times over in the same workbook. (So the tabs would read 'Person1 - Chart', 'Person1 - Data', 'Person2 - Chart', 'Person2 - Data', etc.)
My solution was to, for every person this report was going to be run for, copy the chart template, and then copy the data template. The problem is that every chart template that is created points to the original data worksheet. How can I set what worksheet each chart worksheet is pointing at?
I have two unrelated databases and I need to pass data back and forth between them. Right now I have created two separate entity models - one for each database - but this is causing issues in my code b/c I have to do a Using nameofcontext / End Using and when I try to then use some of the results from the first section of the code in a second Using nameofcontext / End Using it doesn't like it - b/c I've closed the connection to the first database!

I have one Private sub that runs in a loop. I want the sub to run multiple times at once.

How I will display progress report in Datagridview Column ("Progress")
I just had a new, last-minute idea on to take on a task, so I am running to StackExchange for quick help.
What I want to do is execute a series of methods right in a row, each in their own threads. I want the application to wait until all of these threads are completed, after which the program will resume. It also has to use managed threading (thread pool).
What quick examples could you provide to help me along the way? If it's too complex, what things should I know about so that I can Google it on my own?
(i dunno what title that describes my question better) well, i'm new in this .NET box. i used by Vb6. and now i want to convert my vb6 app to .NET concept. well now i'm stuck with DataGridView, seems like this control is an "all in one" control and memory eater too. well what i want is to have 2 combobox column in datagridview. say as cboGridID and cboGridDesc
while i type in cboGridID in a row, the cboGridID is dropdowned and select the item which is by Autocomplete, while in cboGridID is active i want the cboGridDesc dropdowned too, and select the item by the same index in cboGridID. and vice versa if i type in cboGridDesc
A commercial application we are selling can display a User control written in VB.Net in the interface. I am writing a vertical strip that will display some of our ads to our customers. I would like to be able to control the message and the ads. My idea is to upload an XML file to our server, then have the Vb.Net add-in (user control) download the XML file to a temp location and display the contents as advertisement. 1. Is that a good way to do this? I am open to other suggestions. 2. Is there a way I could embed javascript inside user control? I want to be able to animate the text displayed if possible and I dont know how to do that in Vb.Net user control.

View 3 RepliesI am replacing a VB6 application with a rewritten counterpart in VB.Net. In the VB6 app there was a 'control' application which presented a form to the user and allowed them to select a 'client' from a drop down list. Selecting a client caused the reading of an ini file which set client-specific parameters, including the program names of several dlls, which were also written in VB6 and registered on the subject machine.
For example, each 'client' had a different letter format, and the letter was written by the selected dll. This made everything late-bound, but there is only one user. Most of all, it made it convenient to continually update individual letters by updating only that dll, and dropping the dll on top of the old one. Thus the (clerical) user had only to be told to save this file to the usual folder. I could have compiled everything together in one exe, making my updates larger and more complex.
In re-doing this in VB.Net, how should I replace this sort of approach?
I could tie everything together in one big project (and compile it to an exe which is the large update I was avoiding). Should I just do that? If I continue with the approach of having my client-specific (.net) dlls compiled separately, does this make sense in the .Net world? How do I call them? Do they need to be registered as they were before? What's the right way to do this and still give me the flexibility I had?
