Hi guys, thanks in advance.
trying to implement some multithreading here :
VS 2003
VB.net winforms
I have a dropdown on a form which has list of vendors, when the user selects
a vendor from this dropdown, a new thread is created which calls a webservice
and the webservice returns the list of cities the vendor is in and this data
is set as the datasource of the city dropdown on the same screen. The thread
takes 4-5 seconds to do all this and all this Works like a charm, by the time
the user some to the city dropdown , it already has the list of cities the
user has selected .
Now what i want to do is when the user selects mutiple values from the
Source dropdown and if there is already a thread created from the user
selection of the previous value (I.e within this 4-5 sec time preriod), i
want to suspend the old thread and then start a new thread which gets the
cities for the new vendor the user has selected and below is the code that i
have. But the problem is when user selects multiple values from the vendor
dropdown in the 4-5 second time period, the thread takes forever, what is
happening here, is it that all the thread that were started at queyed even if
i am suspending it or what how can i stop this from happening, i.e when the
user selects a vendor then i want to suspend any previous thread which was
getting the list of cities for the previous vendor and get the thread started
with the new vaendor selection. Could the problem be due to the webserivce
that the thread creates? please suggest
Waiting for a suggestion.
Below is the code that i am running.
Creating the thread when the user selects a new vendor from the dropdown :
Private function Vendorchanged()
Try
'Checking to suspend any old thread which might still be acttive from
previous selection
If Not thread_refreshc ontact Is Nothing AndAlso
thread_refreshc ontact.IsAlive = True Then
thread_refreshc ontact.Suspend( )
End If
'Beging to re-initialized the thread
thread_refreshc ontact = Nothing
thread_refreshc ontact = New
Threading.Threa d(AddressOf RefreshCity)
thread_refreshc ontact.Name = "vendorcity "
thread_refreshc ontact.IsBackgr ound = True
thread_refreshc ontact.Start()
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToStr ing)
End Try
End function
'Function being called by the thread above
Private Sub RefreshCity()
Dim custid As Int32 = 0
Dim Dr As DataRow
Dim vendorid As Int32 = 0
Try
DtCity = <CAll the webserivce which returns the datatable with the cities>
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToStr ing)
End Try
End Sub

Are you sure you want to get the cities on a different thread..it seems that
that is the critical path execution and you would want to wait until you have
the cities listed in the listbox anyway?

Dennis, thanks for your answer, actually this scenario was the closest to
what i am trying to achive here so i am pretty sure that i want to get the
cities on a different thread.
thanks

I'm new to C++ and I have some basic questions.
I have written an app that does some network stuff in a worker thread. The
thread function requests something from the server, gets it and creates an
object from the server response. Does this thread terminate/stop/die as soon
as it completes its last line of code? Or do I have to do something to kill
it?
I am used to coding Java so I am totally unsure of what I have to do to

Hi, I'm trying to learn multithreading and it doesn't seem to be working for
me. I have a feeling it has to do with the fact that I'm writing to files
rather than to printf, but maybe not. Basically, I wanted to see if it
would be faster to write to 4 files at the same time (parallel) rather than
4 in a row (serially). however, when my multithreaded code executes, it
seems to do them in order anyway (I expected to see Starting/Ending all...

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm writing an application

appreciated. Also, any references to websites with examples of .NET async

hi ,
I am trying to draw ' html div-tag ' on the screen which will
resemble a rectangle through vb.net code.
I want it to be drawn faster...so I introduced multithreading
using Threadpool. I divided the complete drawing into 3 parts..1st will
be done by main thread and other two are done in these procedures -
<1LongTimeTask
<2LongTimeTask2
I have invoked the threads using below method.
