Hi,
I have a small app which sends using .NET's SmtpClient Class and sends
well. But the problem is that i placed a marquee-type progress bar to
have an animation and hide by default.
Then i placed "progressbar1.s how" code inside send button, but the
problem is that progress bar is shown after the mail is sent / after
operation ends. I want my form displays progress bar at the same time
with mail is being sent.
And during sending process form seems hanged and locked but still
operation is ended successfully after a while. I have searched for
similiar threads with no help and i think i need to insert a kind of
invoking / delegation part into my code to allow my form tointeract
during operation. My code:
Private Sub btnSubmit_Click (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles _btnSubmit.Clic k
ProgressBar1.Sh ow()
Dim message As New MailMessage(txt from.Text, txtto.Text,
txtsubject.Text , txtbody.Text)
Dim emailClient As New SmtpClient("smt p.gmail.com")
Dim SMTPUserInfo As New
System.Net.Netw orkCredential(t xtSMTPUser.Text +
_ "@gmail.com ", txtSMTPPass.Tex t)
emailClient.Use DefaultCredenti als = False
emailClient.Cre dentials = SMTPUserInfo
emailClient.Por t = 587
emailClient.Ena bleSsl = True
emailClient.Sen d(message)
MsgBox("Mail was sent successfully", MsgBoxStyle.Inf ormation,
"Success!")
End Sub
I have no experience about "invoking types and delagates" and i want
to learn briefly.
If you help and explain about the code i'd be so glad.
Thanks!

It's nothing to do with 'invoking' and/or 'delegates'.
It is simply that your UI thread is being blocked from the point where you
click the 'submit' button until you have dismissed the MessageBox dialog.

You have to put the task (sending) into another thread if you want to keep
the UI (user interface) busy.
Does the ProgressBar1 really reflect the progress of sending? Or is it just
an animation? If you had to reflect the progress, you would have to call
ProgressBar1's BeginInvoke method from the working thread.
I have no experience about "invoking types and delagates" and i want
to learn briefly.
A delegate is an object containing a reference to a certain
method/procedure. You can pass a delegate around, and the one who gets the
delegate is able to call the method that is referenced in the delegate.
BeginInvoke makes the passed method (wrapped in a delegate) execute in the
UI thread. The UI thread then can update the progress bar, which is not
allowed from the worker thread.
BeginInvoke is (like) sending a message to the UI thread. The message says:
"execute this method". The UI thread will receive the message and do like
instructed (as soon as it is idle).
If you help and explain about the code i'd be so glad.
Please use google to search for "BeginInvok e" in this group. I think it has
been explained many times.

It's just an animation, doesn't calculates anything based on mail

Sorry, but i still didn't understand what should i insert into my code
described in my first post to make visible marquee animated progress
bar control while the mail is being sent.

been explained many times.
I always search but not always gives point solutions, beleive :-)

Hi, Bgworker is a good idea i tried and worked for showing progress
bar, but i want to hide it when sending process ends by clicking
Messagebox("sen t successfully")
I got "crossthrea d operation not valid....etc". I think i had to
marshal it / use "addressof. " Am i right?
How can i do this (hide progressbar after mail sending finishes)?
Thanks.
OK, don't mind. I found solution for hiding progress bar by putting
"progressbar1.h ide" inside background worker's "RunWorkerCompl eted"
event.

Hi, we have an app, that executes jobs submitted from an outside
application. It executes them asynchronusly, by creating a delegate to the
method that can run the job, and calling BeginInvoke on the method.
Throughout the job itself, we use the CallContext class to store information
that is needed by many classes in the call stream. This works well, and
concurrent threads are working fine.
What happens is, that after a job is done,...

I have a form that displays data (is that vague enough for you?). The

I have a question about BeginInvoke method found on the Control class.
To quote the docs:
"Executes the specified delegate asynchronously with the specified
arguments, on the thread that the control's underlying handle was
created on."
Which is fine, but I'm wondering how does this method get called
asynchronously if it's on the same thread we are working on? Surely it
blocks the thread until returned?

Hello,
If I understand BeginInvoke correctly, when it is called your delegate is

my callback method before working with some GUI controls? Won't it always be
required since the callback is running on a thread pool thread? I see some
