I am trying to execute a line of code that i'll call f(x) and include a timeout. f(x) is an function in excel that can fail catastrophically. I did not code f(x) and the failure generates a dialog box. When 'ok' is clicked, Excel immediately closes. BTW: error trapping (On Error Resume Next) does not trap this error.

We have an ASP.NET application that queues some of its long-running operations (generating reports, for example) into the ThreadPool using System.Threading.ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem.
We run the ASP.Net application pool using a specific domain service account so that it can access remote resources, including files and databases. When the execution starts in the ThreadPool, the user identity of the thread is set to Network Service, which doesn't allow us to access the remote resources.The web application can be accessed by users in different countries simultaneously and the format of the data that we provide to each user is based on their culture settings (using the standard globalization settings in web.config). When the queued thread is started, it has also lost this information and reverts to the default culture for the operating system.
Now, we can probably get around most of these issues by capturing the current user identity and culture in a state object and passing that to the background worker, then impersonate the user and set the culture on the thread, but this seems like a very "unclean" way to resolve this issue.[code]...

We use a number of VB6 DLLs in classic ASP, using Server.CreateObject in the ASP page. The DLL code has recently (as a test) been converted to VB.Net 2008, and all the obvious issues that usually arise have been dealt with, meaning we are now able to use a .Net version of the DLL in classic ASP using interop (by using regasm to register the assembly for use in COM). The code that the converter added to the objects to make them usable in COM was <System.Runtime.InteropServices.ProgId("My.ObjectName")>, just before each class definition.
We have started noticing an inconsistent performance issue when using this new version of the DLL vs. the VB6 version in that it can sometimes take much longer to perform some tasks (even the task of constructing the objects from the DLL). In fact the same unit of work, including some DB work - now through interop ADO - can vary wildly (This is not limited to ADO work though!). We have started looking into this to try to figure out if it's some constant source of inefficiency, or if it's a load issue (threading related maybe).
I cannot seem to find a straight answer to the issue of threading when converting the code base. The DLL in VB6 is configured to use "Apartment Threading", the only other option being "Single Threading". Is this something that requires attention and is relevant when converting to .Net given we are still using the DLL through COM, and does anyone know what needs changing/configuring/checking?

I had recently(2 months before ) found some code for locking the screen. Here's the link to that code submission in our CodeBank : [URL]
I wish to get a clear idea of what it actually does. As it is a bit advanced code for me.
Here's the main part of the
CODE:
I am creating an IDE for a game script with similar functionality as the Visual Studio IDE (at least, some of it). The game script consist of code that looks visually a bit like C code. It uses braces to define the start and end of a 'class' and uses nested braces to define the start and end of an 'event' in a class.
What I want finally is to have two Comboboxes above the text editor, one that lists each Class and the other listing each Event. The comboboxes should also show the Class and Event that the caret is currently in, just like in Visual Studio.I have attached an example of such a script (you can open it with Notepad).However, here is a short example where you can also see how I "defined" classes and events:
class1
{
event1
{
[code]....
As you can see, the classes are the 'names' of each block of code, defined by matching braces { }. The events are the names of each nested block of code, also defined by matching braces { } but inside a class. There is only one level of nesting.As you can also see, the layout can follow the standard C-style layout, or a slightly different layout (using the opening brace on the same line as the class/event name), or even a completely chaotic mess. As long as the braces match correctly, the code is valid.So in short, the large blocks are classes, while the nested blocks are events.
What I want to do, is parse an entire script, and store all the Classes (and eventually, also all the Events, but let's forget about them for now). I want to store the Class name, start position (defined as the start index of the name), end position (defined as the index of the closing brace) and the full text (defined as the text between start and end position, so including the name).
vb.net
Public Class clsClass
Private _Name As String
[code]....
The code works basically by finding every first opening brace (the opening brace of each CLASS, not event), and then loops through the class (using a brace counter to keep track of the nested braces) until it found the last closing brace. It then stores the name, start, end and fulltext in a new clsClass and adds it to the list to return.
I am working on an app and I am a bit confused w/ threading. I understand the point of threading but I am not getting when to use a background worker thread vs. a standard thread vs. a thread pool. Can someone shed some light on when to use which? Right now, I am trying code an app that does stuff initially in a sequential order and then eventually must thread (otherwise it takes forever). The problem I am having w/ the sequential stuff (and threading later) is that I need a button to be able to stop execution of code. [Code]
I did the background worker on this first sequential operation because when I tried w/ out it, the text box didn't update at all until the web page contents were retrieved. Basically, the text box change of "Starting." doesn't show up until the web page is finished processing even though the assignment to the text box happens before that code.
I want to execute a code after every 5 min.I am trying to develop the application in .net and using the C# as a backend language.My basic requirement is a C# code which executes after every 5min which i click a start button on my .net form.

Multi-Threading. I have got a simple bit of code that will need to be repeated but with a chance of it overlapping the only complex bit is there will be a varible that will be different each time. so I was wondering if I put it in another Thread and store the varible within the thread code would that achieve what I am looking for? To make it slightly easyier once the thread is started and pulled the Varible in there will be no cross talking between the thread and main app thread (ie no progress reports, no aborts/suspends etc) Nothing will be feeding back on thread completion either, when it ends it ends.
This is what I have so far:

what would be the code for executing this file?
What do I want to achieve: I want to perform some time consuming operations from my MDI winforms application (C# - .NET). An MDI child form may create the thread with the operation, which may take long time (from 0.1 seconds, to even half hour) to complete. In the meantime I want the UI to respond to user actions, including manipulation of data in some other MDI child form. When the operation completes, the thread should notify the MDI child that the calculations are done,so that the MDI child can perform the post-processing.Should I use explicit threading (i.e., create explicit threads), thread pools? Or simply just propose your solution. Should I create foreground or background threads?And how does the thread communicates with the GUI, according the solution you propose?
View 7 RepliesThe coding that I have a problem with might make people think that I am creating some malware. So the project I am doing is associated with iTunes. iTunes allows people to have one library. There is another way, but it is very confusing to some people, and very unreliable. So my project is that I will allow people to have multiple iTunes libraries on one computer. So the problem is this. In order to have an option to choose your library, I gotta make sure that iTunes is not running.
So this is the script:
Private Sub CheckAndCloseiTunes()
retry:
'Custom class that includes the function to safely close iTunes
Dim Processes As Process() = Process.GetProcessesByName("iTunes")

So when I use the Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000) code, the form becomes unresponsive.

I have an app that allows a user to type in code that can be executed much like vba code in the office world.I currently execute this code with the Proprietary Dexterity code used with MS Dynamics - GP.However, my users need to be able to run outside the Dexterity world.The easy answer is to allow them to type in vb scripting or vb code instead of dex code.However, I can't find an easy way to dynamically execute their code within my methods.CodeCom looked like it could be the answer, but If i'm reading it right, I would have to know what libraries the user is using in their code for vb.Thus, I thought to simply limit them to vb scripting.Unfortunately, I can't find a way to execute vb scripting from within vb, (all the articles are ancient and most links fail - thus I gotta believe there is an easier way).I'm at a deadline where I developed the prototype but trying to use sql statements failed miserably when trying to execute.
