Auto Progress bar

[AgentEddie99]

Need some help with Visual Basic.

 

I have some checkboxes that run commands I'm wanting the progress bar to auto the value of the progress of the bar.

 

Example:

 
        If CheckBox5.Checked Then
            MsgBox("Company information updated")
            ProgressBar1.PerformStep()
        End If

 

Please Help!!!

 

Hope that makes sense.

I don't know much about Visual Basic but I know the .NET framework and C#.

 

So I'm guessing it works really similarly.

 

Have you told it how much to increment by OR if you want to automatically go to a set progress?

Why are you using Visual Basic and not C#?

That doesn't really make any sense...

Basically it sounds like this.

 

He wants to check to see if somebody checks a checkbox.

 

If that happens he wants to say that information was saved and wants to show a progress bar animation to show that.

Then it would be best to pass a IProgress into a Task and optionally a CancellationToken if you need to support cancellation. You register a callback on the IProgress interface for updating your progress bar with whatever model you like.

Well then just set a value to it.

 

Underneath you're messagebox just type:

 

ProgressBar1.Value = 100;

This is C# code by the way. I have no idea if this works in VB.

If you do that from the context of another thread then it will explode. If you do this plus the work in the same UI thread then your UI is going to become unresponsive/work like crap.

 

That is why I suggested that you process your work in a separate thread.

It's .NET . You can do everything from the same place.

You can if you don't really care about what it is that you are doing or have any real aspirations.

 

It seems that it's exactly that kind of mentality that results in you comming on here so often moaning when things go so badly wrong: case and point.

 

Ultimately there's only one response I can give to such a statement:

With that I realized the component couldn't be used in a multi-threaded way. It could only be dealt with in a single threaded way.
