Hi,
the (.NET 2.0) backgroundworke r object has a DoWork method that
operates in a background thread. When the DoWork method is finished the
RunWorkerComple ted event is raised in the parent thread.
Now I have in the backgroundworke r's DoWork method a try catch finally
block, like this:
StreamReader sr = null;
try
{
sr = new StreamReader("b lahdieblah" +
e.Argument.ToSt ring());
if (!this.Cancella tionPending)
try
{
e.Result = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
throw exc;
}
else
{
e.Cancel = true;
e.Result = null;
}
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
throw exc;
}
finally
{
if (sr != null) sr.Close();
}
return;
The "blahdiebla h" part is to force an error. The 'e' is een event
argument that is passed to the DoWork method.
The error is catched, but code execution always breaks at the 'throw
exc' line.
I presumed that the error should have been propagated to the
RunWorkerComple tedEventArgs, in it's .Error property. However it never
gets there.
What did I miss? When and how will the .Error property be filled and
RunWorkerComple ted called, like the documentation states. 1 2909
I hereby add the following new information to the question:
- it appears that by removing the 'catch' block, the exceptionis
raised to the parent thread (shouldn't 'throw exc' have done the
same?)
- the application then generates a 'first chance exception' (green bar
break - only when in debug mode)
Question 2: is it perhaps a better practice to propagate the exception
"manually" in the Result property of the RunWorkerComple ted event?
Thanks for lookin in to this. di***********@g mail.com schreef:

I am trying to set a panel (that holds a progress image) to be visible
when a long running process is happening. Sounds simple, right :) What
happens is the panel never becomes visible. The load and prerender
events occur, but it is never displayed.
In the super simple example, I use the "hide panel", then click the "Do
Process". The next thing I see is the "done". Why won't the panel
display?
Here is the code:

I have a background worker thread that scans the network listing computers

When I run it, my UI freezes until it completes. Any thoughts on how to do

Is there a way to immediately terminate a BackgroundWorker thread? My
problem is that the BackgroundWorker starts with a call to
My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles that can run for a very long time if
it is pointing to a directory tree with many files. If the user
requests cancellation during this time, the main thread can call
CancelAsync and can post a "Cancellation Pending" message to the user,
but the BackgroundWorker cannot respond to...

Hi,
I have a form with a progress bar on it and wanted to use the
BackgroundWorker to be able to update the progress. I looked at examples, run
some of them, but in debug, when the code gets to the do work method, it
stops for a long while and then executes the first line of the method and the
doesn't do anything else.
What am i doing wrong?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
