            return 0;
        }


    }
}

The class is exctracting frames from video file to the hard disk.

IN my case for example 47 files on hard disk.

In the bottom of the class im doing the saving to the hard disk:

bitmap.Save(Path.Combine(_outFolder, _frameId.ToString("D6") + ".bmp"));

And above in the class there a function called: WaitUntillDone() wich dosent help me.

What i want is that when its finishing to extract all the files to the hard disk it will give me a messagebox.show or just a message on a label or something say that ” the process has done”

In Form1 button click event im using the class like this:

wmv = new Polkan.DataSource.WmvAdapter(@"d:\VIDEO0040.3gp", sf);
            wmv.SaveToDisc = true;
            wmv.Start();

The video name , sf is the directory where to extract on hard disk.

Then true so it will save it to the hard disk not ot memory the frames.

And start.

I can also do in Form1 in the button click event wmv.WaitUntillDone(); but it wont throw any message or something when done.

Answer 1

You need to use events for telling your UI component that the process has finished:

public event EventHandler ProcessFinished; 

Inside your method, when it finishes let it raise the event:

if(ProcessFinished != null)
    ProcessFinished(this, EventArgs.Empty);

Finally, in the class that is calling the process:

wmv = new Polkan.DataSource.WmvAdapter(@"d:\VIDEO0040.3gp", sf);
wmv.SaveToDisc = true;
wmv.ProcessFinished += OnProcessFinished;
wmv.Start();

Where OnProcessFinished will be something like:

public void OnProcessFinished(object sender, EventArgs e){
    MessageBox.Show("done!");
}

Hope it helps.
