thread progressBar in WinForms – Also in C#

24 marzo, 2014 peplluis Deja un comentario

Después de una interesante conversación entorno a las diferencias de lenguaje “entre VB i C#” con mi amigo Jose María y de frente a la reiterativa discusión sobre la sintaxis… aquí os dejo el último ejemplo en C# para que lo comparéis con su anterior en VB.

Realmente pensáis que hay tanta diferencia como para continuar discutiendo cual mejor?, para poder apreciar los matices de cada uno de los lenguajes, como mínimo uno tiene que ser “bilingüe” y practicante pues en otro caso la discusión esta fuera de criterio…

El debate está servido! Jajajaja!.

thread progressBar in WinForms

20 marzo, 2014 peplluis Deja un comentario

En el último post y en “WinForms”, comentamos como en algunas circunstancias se nos produce una excepción de ‘Subproceso Anulado’ cuando creamos/destruimos hilos en una misma función.

Después de conversar sobre el tema, y hablando con uno de vosotros sobre un escenario donde en ‘WinForm’ clásico nunca ha sido capaz de visualizar una ‘progress bar’ independientemente del form principal y aun pensando que deben existir montón de ejemplos J me he decidido a juguetear un ratito para ver como lo haría yo…

Este es el resultado (no sé si muy bueno, pero funciona.)

De todas maneras se me ocurre, que en próximos post podríamos hablar de cómo hacerlo usando “async” “await” y “task”. Que os parece?

Si lo consideráis interesante no dudéis pedirme el equivalente en C#.

In the last post we are discussing around «WinForms» and some exceptions when create / destroy threads inside the same function.

After talking more about this, and share with somebody of you who are using classic ‘WinForm’ and has never been able to display a ‘progress bar’ independently of the main form, I think that we can found a plenty of examples on the web, But I decided tinkering for a while to see how I’d do it …

This is the result (not sure if is a very good sample, but it works.)

Anyway, it occurs to me that in next post could talk about how to do it using «async» «await» and «task». What you think?

Do not hesitate to ask me for the equivalent code in C #.

Espero vuestros comentarios!

Subproceso Anulado (ThreadAbordException)

4 marzo, 2014 peplluis Deja un comentario

Siguiendo casualmente algunos enlaces referentes a la ejecución de forms en diferentes hilos, algunos escenarios y de forma esporádica lanzan errores inesperados haciendo referencia a “thread abord exception” y “subproceso anulado” me decidí investigar un poquito más y…

Se deben diferenciar dos tipos

a) Unhandled exceptions descritas en : http://msdn.microsoft.com/es-es/library/system.windows.forms.application.threadexception(v=vs.110).aspx?cs-save-lang=1&cs-lang=vb#code-snippet-1

b) Las “threatAbordException” son mucho más sencillas de resolver, eso si no debéis caer en el error de intentar capturarlos en un “exception” genérico J

Sub Loading()

Try

Application.Run(New frmLoading)

Catch ex As ThreadAbortException

‘ Nothing to do :-))

End Try

End Sub

Espero que os sea útil, si es que es vuestro caso J
