.net - BackgroundWorker.ReportProgress Exception If Run In Another Module?
Mar 18, 2012My BackgroundWorker works perfectly in my main form frmMain. But when I run the ReportProgress method in another module, I get exception "This BackgroundWorker states that it doesn't report progress. Modify WorkerReportsProgress to state that it does report progress." This IS set to report progress; this works fine when run the same way in the main module.Basically, from a module called by my BackgroundWorker, I want to show progress on my main form.How can I fix this? The only idea I have is to move the code from the module into my main form, but this seems a backward step, which would involve extra work. Am hoping there are easier ways!
Calling code in class frmMain:
Friend WithEvents BackgroundWorker As New System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker
Private Sub btnTest_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnTest.Click
' Specify that we do NOT want the background operation to allow cancellation
[code]....
Code which generates the exception in separate module Invoices:
Public Function MyTest() As Boolean
frmMain.BackgroundWorker.ReportProgress(0)
End Function
Am using VB.NET in VS 2010, with .NET 3.5.

View 2 Replies.net - Lockwindowupdate And Backgroundworker?
Sep 8, 2010I've got a bit of a problem, I'm using a backgroundworker to do a lot of processing and it adds items to a listview with: AddListItem(ListView1, listItem)
Here is the delegate code to send the command to the listview outside of the thread:
Delegate Sub AddListItem_Delegate(ByVal [ListView] As ListView, ByVal [text] As Object)
Private Sub AddListItem(ByVal [ListView] As ListView, ByVal [text] As ListViewItem)
[Code]...
The problem is, as you might imagine, flickering of the listview. Can anyone help me out with a solution to execute a LockWindowUpdate(Me.Handle) command in the backgroundworker? I've tried creating a new delegate but it's not working (errors, I don't understand vb.net enough).
.net - Use One BackgroundWorker To Do Different Activities?
Mar 11, 2011I am programming using VB.NET 2005. I am using a BackgroundWorker to load a large list or text file and process it.
Is it possible to use the same background worker to process something else, i.e. to process the text file that was loaded? somthing like
Dim bwkMain as New BackgroundWorker()
If its possible, how do I implement it in the same form as I have already implemented for the first one?
EDIT The question is: is it possible to use the same BackgroundWorker for another task, after it finishes one task?
.Net BackgroundWorker Hangs Up?
Mar 21, 2011I have limited experience in VB.net and have become stuck. I have tried to search for answers on other threads without success.I have an application that displays real time data.Queries are made to a MySQL database on another PC over the internet every 10 seconds to gather the most recent data.I have done the query within a BackgroundWorker so that the GUI is still responsive while the query is answered.What I've done works great for several hours or maybe for a couple of days but then the DoWork task appears to hang.
The code I'm using is to run the background worker is:
vb
If Not(backgroundWorker1.IsBusy) Then Me.backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync() End If
The backgroundWorker runs just once and there's very little code in the DoWork routine:
vb
Private Sub backgroundWorker1_DoWork(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles backgroundWorker1.DoWork rs = New
[code].....
Is there anyway I can set up a timeout on the maximum allowed time that the DoWork task can be active for? And if so how would I then go on to stop the backgroundWorker?I understand that CancelAsync isn't going to help as my DoWork task is not repeating as it runs once only, then stops and 10 secs later I run it again.
Add A BackgroundWorker To Application?

I tried using Dim worker As System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker but get an error:

BackgroundWorker - Get Two Different RunWorkerCompleted?
Jun 26, 2009I used sample from jmcilhinney at Link to create background proces and it works like a charm. But. In my menu i have two (2) different toolstrip buttons which i need to run the same BackgroundWorker1_DoWork method, but different ackgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted methods. Is that doable?
1. In BackgroundWorker1_DoWork method i use some time-consuming operation which at end sets two global variables.
2. In BackgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted method I use some Select case statment based on that two global variables that are not the same for ToolstripButton1 and ToolstripButton2.

BackgroundWorker And CookieJar?
Jun 19, 2009I am building an app that connects to a webservice that returns an XML file, and due to the lag I want to use a backgroundworker to connect and then return the data when its done, and also store the cookies in CookieJar so I can use one post to log in, and get the webservice to auth the session. However, I am completely stuck as I cant get BackgroundWorker to return anything other than a true or false when it completes. I am used to PHP now, until a few weeks ago it had been 5 years since I last used VB ( and it was vb6) so I am rusty.
View 1 RepliesBackgroundWorker And Non Responsive GUI?
Sep 19, 2010I cannot make it work. I'm a beginner, and not being sure what's really relevant I'll say I'm using VS2010 Express edition, on Windows7 Pro 64 bit.It's been bugging me for days, and I even thought it was because I was using Express edition, but it wasn't. I copied their Fibonacci example, and it worked as expected. Meaning: progress bar reported progress, GUI was responsive, so Cancel button could have done its part.
But I didn't want Fibonacci calculator, because recursive calls always make me think about stack overflow. I wanted something less fancy; I wanted simply to count to 100.000 and see the counter on the GUI changing all the time.So I followed the instructions on their Fibonacci example, but I made it only count "in its mind". It updated progress bar all the time, but text box shown only the last result after finished counting. Also GUI wasn't responsive, so I couldn't click cancel button.
When you start Fibonacci example, you could move the form around. But in my case, GUI was frozen, and form was moved only at the end of counting.

Format DGV With A BackgroundWorker?
Apr 19, 2011I have an applictaion with a DGV which has many rows> I need to make different formattings depending on values from some columns. I was thinking to use event CellFormatting but it takes to much time. So, the other solution shoul be to use a backgroundWorker which will take care about formatting dgv.
Unfortunatelly I do not know exactly how to do that. I have tried in many ways but I have received the message:
Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'StatusStrip1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
Getting Backgroundworker To Work?
May 23, 2011I have not used Backgroundworker before and this one has me stumped. I have run examples (this is based on one from MSDN) and read what I could find, but I just can't seem to make this work. I am sure it is something simple that is wrong with my code, but don't know how to go about troubleshooting it. What happens is that it goes to the startthread() sub dim the object and sets the two variables and then bypasses the last line that starts the worker process. I'm stumped.
Here is the original code that works just fine, but hangs up my app (hence the need to run a background process)Above the is an Imports RARNET to support this:

.net - Why Isn't BackgroundWorker.OnDoWork Getting Called
Apr 10, 2012I have a job object for long running operations that works like this:
[code]...
This worked fine a year ago, and I moved on to other things. I had to return to this code today, and when I run it now, the OnDoWork override is simply not called. A breakpoint in there isn't hit, debugging messages aren't written, the method is simply not called, and no errors are thrown anywhere. I can't think what would have changed that could cause this, since it seems like a low level framework thing. The rest of the app loads and runs fine, the main window shows (it's a WPF app), and button click events fire. It's just the background thread method that doesn't fire. What could be going on here?

Backgroundworker And UI Status Update?
Jun 29, 2011I am writing an application that calls data collectors (via ip or modem), collects data from them and reformats it. I had this much written when I was asked to make it multi-threaded so that I can collect from multiple sites at one time. I have that written using backgroundworkers and it appears to be working well. On my UI I have a text box that needs to update with status details like, dialing, collecting, reformatting, etc. I planned to simply write the status updates to the text box from an UpdateStatus routine. Found that had all sorts of nasty threading issues, so I added a delegate to call the status update routine. Problems seem to be fixed except that the updates to the UI are coming in chunks instead of one by one as they really occur. Can anybody tell me how to force the status update in the text box to update more asynchronously?
