Make MenuStrip Thread-Safe

Hi,

I have a Windows Form based C# application which has a MenuStrip component.
I have a child thread running in the application.

Now I have to Enable/Disable the ToolStripMenuIt em from within the Child
Thread. The problem is that since it doesn't have an InvokeRequired property
like other Form Controls, hence I can't use that to make it threadsafe.

So isn't it possible to make it threadsafe? If so then what's the best
possible way?

Thanks in anticipation.

Regards,

Ahmad Jalil Qarshi

Using ToolStripManager.Merge(ToolStrip,ToolStrip) I've been able to merge a MenuStrip into a MenuStrip but never a ContextMenuStrip into a MenuStrip. From the docs it seems to me I should be able to.

So far so good. But when I maximize the MDI-child window ... what i see then is the

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
