[C#] Thread Safe in - How to?

[litewarez]

whats confusing me is the way you have to cross just lots of different classes.

I c ant really do a flow chart but

(Main Class) -> (Jabber Class) -> (Callbacks Class) -> (Main Class) -> [SetLoginStatus]

I dont understand why it cant follow the following route

(Main Class) -> (Jabber Class) -> (Main Class) -> [SetLoginStatus]

C# is a 110% OO language, unlike PHP. C# has events. Everything is C# is an object. In other words in OOP it is normal to be calling classes from classes. However, if something gets confusing about the flow of the program that is most likely due to a poor design or the use of crappy libraries.

"Thread cannot access object in which it was not created on"

That kind of error, or whatever it actually comes up with means exactly that. The thread that is trying to access a textbox, for example, that the thread did not specifically create itself, cannot access it simply because another thread may be doing something with it and mess it all up. So you have to invoke that textbox and say "hey, whats your status as of now". I showed you how to create instances of objects in a few of my sources, which is why i tryed to explain how to do things like that - its so much easier. Invoking objects is quite easy and actually makes a lot of sense once you get into the routine of it.

Take a look at my multi-threading example (attempt ) and see if you can get any idea in how to go about doing such things:

Edit: Making objects out of things and making them re-useable, things like that are really useful here. Make a delegate and make it useful. A general status delegate for example that will be constantly used is a good idea. So for example have:

public delegate void GeneralStatusDelegate(string status, int progress, int maxProgress);
        private void GeneralStatus(string status, int progress, int maxProgress)
        {
            toolStripStatusLabel1.Text = status;
            toolStripProgressBar1.Maximum = maxProgress;
            toolStripProgressBar1.Value = progress;

            if (progress == maxProgress || progress == 0)
                toolStripProgressBar1.Visible = false;
            else
                toolStripProgressBar1.Visible = true;
        } 

This will be very useful to invoke as you can see. We can set a string status, a current progress of the progressbar and a MaxProgress. very useful
