Question

I see that BackgroundWorker class able to pass to upper process some progress information. I have static method:

MyClass.MyMethod(string, string)    // Does some work which progress I need to report

how can I use such method from any calling function or process to return BackgroundWorker progress info like this for example:

backgroundWorker.ReportProgress(percent, "Stage N 1...");

?

Answer 1

First set the WorkerReportsProgress property to True.

Than add an event handler to the Progress changed event
and at least add your code into the new handler.

for example:

private void backgroundWorker1_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
     var percent = e.ProgressPercentage;
}

But at least: The Background worker class is more or less Obsolete ( Windows statement ) i would like to use the new Task class
