I found a code of winform here: http://www.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?aid=136426&c=1
And it works fine as a winform. But I want to run the code in a web app.
-
I add the references of System.Windows.Forms and the Microsoft.mshtml.dll in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\Primary Interop Assemblies\ to my web app.
-
I copy the WebPageBitmap.cs into my web app.
-
I copy the Program.cs ‘s Main() to my web app as a Button_Click().
-
When I click the button in my web app. It occurs an error:
ActiveX control ‘8856f961-340a-11d0-a96b-00c04fd705a2’ cannot be instantiated because the current thread is not in a single-threaded apartment.
How can I use System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser in a web app to get a Web Site Thumbnail?
public partial class Capture01 : System.Web.UI.Page

public delegate void WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventHandler(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e);

string fileName = "image01.jpg";
string url = "http://www.iweixtest.cn/WE/Site/1647/index.aspx";
thumbwidth = 150;
thumbheight = 100;
//WebPageBitmap webBitmap = new WebPageBitmap(args[0], width, height, false, 10000);
WebPageBitmap webBitmap = new WebPageBitmap(url, width, height, false, 10000);
if (webBitmap.IsOk)
{
webBitmap.Fetch();
Bitmap thumbnail = webBitmap.GetBitmap(thumbwidth, thumbheight);
//thumbnail.Save(args[1], ImageFormat.Jpeg);
thumbnail.Save(fileName, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
thumbnail.Dispose();
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show(webBitmap.ErrorMessage);
}

I have successfully used System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser in a web app.
Just follow the steps above and add AspCompat=”true” in the webform page:
Thank you for all the answers.
