ThreadPool And Large Processing Of WorkItem?
Oct 11, 2010Been trying to implementing ThreadPool over a large and variable amount of data like the following:
public sub ProcessWorkItem(byval state as object)
Dim originalState as CustomStateInfo = CType(state, CustomStateInfo)
'Do stuff
[Code]....
This of course will bomb out if we have more than 64 items/threads being placed on the ThreadPool.
So, how would one process say x amount of items until there are no more items left to process?

View 11 RepliesMulti-threading Processing - Processing A Large List Of Records And Inserting Them Into SQL Database One By One
Mar 18, 2011I just learned some basics of multi threading in VB.net recently as I came across processing a large List of records and inserting them into SQL database one by one.
I have code look like this:
Private Sub btnLoadNow_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLoadNow.Click
Dim autoLoad1 As New Thread(AddressOf AutoLoad)
autoLoad1.Start()
[CODE]...
Itemlists is a global lists i retrieved from database, everything looks fine to me but when i run this program, I found that the threads are inserting one records 9 times into the database(I have 9 threads in total), which makes me think that maybe i need to specifically assign 1/9 of a list to each thread? Is there another way to do it which doesn't require the splitting of the list, if not , how do i split it then assign?

View 14 RepliesVB 2008 Array Processing And Sequential File Processing
May 19, 2011Im a college student and this is my first programming class, i am having extremely diffcult time with arrays and sequential file processing. Im not asking for the whole program, just something to get me started and hints along as i progress with it. Please help me get started on my program, its due in 2 days.
Here are the requirements....
1. The program must input any number of individual�s last and first names using two separate textboxes.
2. The array of names must be sorted by the last name using a bubble sort. You must code the sort.
3. The program must be able to recall the names from the file and add to the existing list of names so that more names can be added to, sorted, and written back to the file in sorted order.
4. Sort in ascending order: A to Z
5. All names must be displayed in a listbox in sorted order when the user wishes to see them.
6. In the listbox the last and first names must be separated by a comma and a space. Example: Smith, Mary
7. The user must be able to search for a name in the array, using the binary search algorithm. You must code the search.
8. Do not use module-level variables. Instead you may choose to use Static.
9. The program must be designed using Visual Basic 2008
Multithreading - .NET 4.0 Execute Multiple Threads But Threads Are Completed Before Resuming?
Oct 19, 2011I 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?
Queue Threads - Spawn A Series Of 'child' Threads From A Loop
Dec 30, 2009I have a main thread which is designed to be a batch processor - it spawns a series of 'child' threads from a loop (which can vary in terms of the no of items) - see below
[Code]...
However, each of the 'child' threads could take anywhere from milliseconds to about a minute to process - depending on the complexity of each calculation. There may also be a large number of child threads - e.g 100s. Creating large numbers of child threads is not efficient. I therefore want some way to effectively queue each child thread (and cancel if the process is taking too long to complete). Autoevents seems like one way of doing this, but the only examples I can find seem to assume there are two different processes on seperate threads, not one process being repeated.

Async Callback From ThreadPool?
Jun 12, 2009I have a bunch of operations that need to be executed simultaneously. For this I'm using the thread pool to execute the tasks. I'd like to know if it's possible to consume some sort of Async Callback (similar to BackgroundWorker.DoWorkComplete) when each thread is finished. The reasoning behind this is that I have a windows service running that uses IPC to update a GUI and I need to know the time at which each specific thread finishes I've used background workers to do a set of tasks and they work perfectly, however, they take longer than I would like. I've timed the execution on my BGW method for a designated number of said tasks and it took 27 seconds, and the same set of tasks takes 4 seconds using the threadpool method. I've also tried using managed threads, to the same effect as the background workers.
View 5 RepliesDifference Between ThreadPool And BackgroundWorkers?
Jan 11, 2009I'm currently writing an application that is used to automate a certain task. Currently, it uses the threadpool (using up to 25 threads per the enduser's option). Each thread calls a function which will usually take about two minutes to finish, but it uses a While loop in order to repeat the process. This is my code to start the threads:
Private Sub ProcessAllItems()
For i As Integer = 1 To Me.numThreads.Value Step 1
Threading.ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(New Threading.WaitCallback(AddressOf ProcessItem), i)
Next i
End Sub
The function "ProcessItem()" is the function that contains the While loop. The control "Me.numThreads" is a NumericUpDown control whose max value is set to 25. My question is...is this a good method to follow? To my knowledge after .NET Framework SP1 there is a max of 250 threads/CPU. However I've read the the threadpool is normally used for processing short-lived tasks. Should I be using background workers instead? If so, how could I start up to 25 background workers during runtime depending on the value of "Me.numThreads"?
Forms :: Threadpool With Progress Bar?
Jul 2, 2009currently i am using a threadpool that contain a number of thread. This number of thread can be different everytime, sometimes 5, sometimes 10, sometimes 15 and so on (multiple of 5). So now i have it working good by using for loop to queue the thread into threadpool. Now the problems is i do not know how to make the progress bar depending on my threadpool. I want my progress bar to complete only when all the thread are done. After searching google, i found that maybe it can be solve by using AutoResetEvent(false), but after i apply to my program, it still did not work, my program hang at xEvent.WaitOne() method and didnt proceed further, anyone can explain to me how to solve the problem? Or got any other ways? For your information, only 5 threads can be running at the same time as the requirement state so (so i set the setmaxthread to 5 already).

some questions: Why am I able to update BOTH my label at the top AND the listbox, but I'm only using an .Invoke on the Listbox?How can I know how many threads are currently being used while that is executing?
What does the SyncLock do?I'm aware some people don't like the use of Application.DoEvents(). Is it ok to be using it in this instance or is there a better practice?For those wanting to try it out, drag a Label and a Listbox to a new form.

ThreadPool Not Working In Parallel
Feb 12, 2010I prepare data to be processed, and saved to file. Since this process is slow, I want to delegate it to a parallel thread, so the main routine can end his work faster. The data is processed and saved to file by the "Sub ProcesarDatos", a routine on his instance of "FileProcessor class".
I call the code this way:

VS 2008 - Threadpool Example For Scraper
Mar 9, 2012can somebody give ThreadPool example for application thats needs to get information to datagridview from thousands of sources? My application needs to work fast and without freezing and lag, but I cant figure out this threadpool thing. And would be nice if you could add this thing to example that when I set domainupdown value to 25 as example, it sets threads to 25. So its making work 25x faster. I haven't find any good example for this, only some C# examples but they haven't work after i converted those to vb.net.

View 2 RepliesForms :: Opening Form Using A Threadpool?
Sep 15, 2009I want to open a VB.net form using a ThreadPool with a maximum of 10 threads. I need to do this because, the form should open based on a live event and i need atmost 10 forms on the desktop at a time. If i open the form on every live event without using a ThreadPool, the desktop will be floaded with many forms. I am using QueueUserWorkItem method of threadpool to queue a method which opens the form. In this queued method, there is form1.show() statement called. But after displaying the form, this method finishes execution and again we have 10 threads available in the system. I somehow want to either keep this method running so that 1 thread is occupied or i want to keep the thread alive till the form1 is closed by the user. I want the 11th form to appear on the desktop, only when any of the existing forms out of the 10 (already on desktop) is closed.

Canceling A ThreadPool Thread That's Being Blocked By A .NET Method?
Aug 14, 2009I have a task that needs to be executed many times in a thread, so as to keep my GUI responsive. Right now I'm using the ThreadPool to accomplish the tasks, and it works perfectly. I get all the data I expect back from the threads, life's good. When those tasks are finished, I then fire off another set of threads to accomplish another set of tasks, in the same fashion. The work method of these threads uses a call to RegistryKey.OpenRemoteBaseKey, which does exactly that, opens a remote registry key. The problem is: if the user running the application does not have permission to open the remote registry the call will throw an IOException, but I expect this behaviour because the user does not have permission to do it. However, the call itself can take FOREVER.
I wrote the application initially to use delegate methods and used the WaitHandle.WaitOne() method on AutoResetEvents in a state object I passed to each delegate. I tried the WaitOne method using a timeout, which worked fine until I realized that even though the WaitOne timed out, the thread was still running. This is a problem because (from what I understand) processes are only given a certain number of ThreadPool threads and, once used, they must be finished in order to be released back to the threadpool. In my work method, I also have a variable that can be signalled when the thread should be stopped, but that (obviously) only works on code that I've written.how can I cancel a thread that's stuck on a .NET method? Is there some sort of garbage collection method I can call if I give it a handle?

Make Threadsqueued To Threadpool Execute Sequentially?
Sep 13, 2011Learning about threads at the moment, barely managing to wrap my head around it, anyway I was wondering how you would go about making threads run sequentially from threadpool if you added them with

VS 2010 - ThreadPool And SqlConnection Pooling - Error: Timeout Expired
Jul 21, 2010I am working on uses the ThreadPool class and specifically the QueueUserWorkItem method to launch its background tasks. I am however having an issue related to SqlConnection timeouts. My error is this: "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached."
This code is using all available ThreadPool threads because it is processing nearly 100,000 items, each on a threadpool thread, and updating an SQL database. So my question is this? Has anyone ran into a similar problem or could shed some light on a resolution to this issue? In testing, if I use the threadpool. setmaxthreads function and give it a value of 100 (to match the default Sql connection pooling count) then all runs just fine, but much to slow to process this much data.
