I have made an application in c# vs 2010 .net 4.0. It gets rss feed from gmail and then shows them in a simple table. But the problem start when i use a timer to check updates in string rss from a 40 sec time. The program works fine but it becomes unresponsive i cannot click a button or anything. I Need help.
Note My App has to be operational after a task started.
Background worker or async web clients are the way to go. I would just like to add that I found strange behavior when I last used a webclient. Every first call I would make from a webclient object would result in about a 30-40 second wait, until the data was retrieved. Subsequent calls would be much faster. It ended up being something to do with the webclients default proxy setting, setting the proxy to null would eliminate the wait.
Setting the proxy to null would probably not be the best solution, just mentioning it in case it leads you to a better solution.
