Question

Here’s some code:

class myclass
{
  enum STAT
  {
    IDLE=0;
    READING,
    WRITING,
    PAINTING,
    SKATTING
  }

  public STAT status = STAT.IDLE;
}

void reading()
{//code}

void writting()
{}
...
//Rest function bodies form accordingly

Button_click()
{
  myclass test = new myclass();

  status = STAT.READING
  bgWorker.RunWorkerAsync();

  while(status == STAT.READING)
  {
     label.text = "READING";
     progressbar.value++;
  }

  status = STAT.WRITTING;
  bgWorker.RunWorkerAsync();

  while(status == STAT.WRITTING)
  {
     label.text = "READING";
     progressbar.value++;
  }
 ..........
}

 bgWorker_doWork()
 {
   switch(status)
   {
     case STAT.READING:  test.reading; break;
     ......
   }

   status = STAT.IDLE;
 }

My code is similar to the above but when i click the button thw whole app crashes with no excepsions or anything. can someone please help? i cant figure out what im doing wrong.. 🙂

thank you and happy new year everyone.

Answer 1

Well i dont know if it helps anyone but i solved my problem using some Thread.Sleep(100) statements before starting each function inside DoWork(). It seems that the execution flow was too fast so the while(status == …) loops always evaluated to false. I just had to give each function some time to work before checking the STATE.

Thanks again
