I'm working on a VB.net app that uses IE, some forms, and multiple
execution threads. I'm unclear on a couple of threading related
matters and hoped that someone could provide some insight.
From within a thread of execution, if I do a form.show, what thread
does the form process execute on? Is the form process supported by
its own thread? When the form post an event that my code catches such
as a button press, what thread does the event handler execute on? Can
I safely do a wait in the thread that does the form.show and still
handle form events such as a button press?
Similarly, from within a thread of execution, if I start a new
instance of IE what thread does it execute on? It looks to me as
though it is on its own seperate thread and process. Is this correct?
If I catch IE events such as DocumentComplet e, what thread does the
event handler execute on? Can I safely do a wait in the thread that
starts IE and still handle IE events?
Thanks for any insight.

Window resouce belongs to the thread which creates it. So when one of your
thread creates a form, the message of that window will be queued in the
message queue of that thread, and that thread will run code to handle those
messages, including the button click event.
So if that thread quits, the window will be destroyed. And if the thread is
in a loop and waiting something without processing window message. The UI
of the window will hang up, and won't response to the button press.
Did you create an IE process or just a control?
Thanks, that helped.
I created an IE process, not a control. It appears to me that IE is
in its own process with its own thread(s) but that my event handlers
execute in my process. I'm not sure, however, what thread within my
process they execute on and if I can safely do a wait in the thread
that starts IE and still handle IE events?

Threads, textboxes and scrolling
Thanks in advance for any information on this matter. I have run into
a small richtextbox, scrolling and tread issue. Which has me totally
confused. Instead of trying to explain it I wrote some small C# code
to demonstrate the fact that in the threaded version the textbox
simple doesn't scroll like it should… please look to the
startButton_Click method for the distinction between the two
programs..

Hi -
I am writing a service which will check a process and its threads for
their state ( alive or dead ).
The process has 5 .net managed threads created using thread.start and
each have been assigned a name.
As in .net there is no way we can get the managed threads, I am
thinking of making a win32 call and check their status.

Question details: VB .NET / threads / events / GUI
Imagine the following situation:
A method from object "A" creates "n" threads.
Variables from these threads contains values that should be updated to a form (only when this form exists), one form can be shown/created for each thread. Thought the forms might not exist, the threads will be always running.
I dont want to control the components (eg. labels) of the form from the threads...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
