hi there,
i created a little test application to send out multiple emails to
addresses, but using threads.
So anyway, what i've got is 1 form with a START button, and a multiline
textbox for recording log output of sending results.
I use the code:
System.Threadin g.Thread t = new System.Threadin g.Thread(new
System.Threadin g.ThreadStart(d oMailSend));
t.Start();
and in the function "doMailSend " i have a line:
txtLog.text += "Sending - " + DateTime.Now.To String();
This throws an error because i'm trying to set the log textbox from within
the thread and the error is:
"Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'txtLog' accessed from a thread
other than the thread it was created on."
any help appreciated in how to set the txtLog.text from within the function
called by the thread.
thanks,
Paul

You have to use the Invoke method of the form (or another control) to
marshall the execution between threads. Write an auxiliary function:
void SetTextLog()
{
txtLog.text += "Sending - " + DateTime.Now.To String();
}
Then when you want to call it from the other thread do this:
txtLog.Invoke(n ew MethodInvoker(S etTextLog));

You can change a variable in the class from the thread, and let a timer
control in the main thread monitor the variable to see if there are any
changes.
Or you can use the Invoke method from the thread to call a delegate in
the main thread.

Just out of curiosity, did you search in this newsgroup for "cross-thread
operation not valid"?
I'm not trying to be snide...it's just that your question is probably the
single-most-asked question here. I continue to be surprised that given
how often it's already been answered, people still see a need to ask it.
Are you (and perhaps other people) simply unaware of the search tools that
are available for looking up previous answers?

Bear a principle in mind:
Never aceess UI component directly in work-thread,Let UI-thread do it.
it will help. http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/is...asicInstincts/
//sample code:
...
public delegate void SetTextDelegate (string text);
...
//a thread safe method
private SetText(string text)
{
if (!InvokeRequire d == false)
{
txtLog.text=tex t;
}
else
{
this.BeginInvok e(new SetTextDelegate (SetText),new object[]{text});
}
}

Sorry:)
that's ok.
private SetText(string text)
{
if (!InvokeRequire d)
{
txtLog.text=tex t;
}
else
{
this.BeginInvok e(new SetTextDelegate (SetText),new object[]{text});
}

Hi all,

Can someone point me how can I do such a usual thing? I need to ping

120 hosts in the LAN, and approx. 10% is down at working hours, pinging
each host at a time from cycle is VERY slow solution.
I did:
retv = os.popen('ping -c 1 ' + ip + ' |grep \"1 packet\" |awk \'{print
