Crystal report not running on server - C# Discussion Boards

14-Mar-08 0:03

Hi all,

I'm using a picturebox to display the images relaid from a Canon camara, and I have the following problem...
Each frame captured by the camara is dispayed within the picturebox. And when I try and use the Selection Control[^], I receive the following exception: Object is currently in use elsewhere.

Because of the following function (this function fires everytime a frame is received and thats about every couple of milliseconds):

void camera_ReceivedFrame(object sender, StreamEventArgs e)
{
    //pictureBox1.Image = e.frame;
    comEnPiBox1.SourceImage = e.frame;
    pictureBox1.Image = comEnPiBox1.SelectArea;
}

Any advice regarding this matter....

Many Thanks in advance

Sounds like a threading issue. Try using the lock statement. More info here[^]

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, but if I use a lock on the picturebox and give exclusive right to the camara input, I will never be able to give the user seletion options on the picturebox. Cause the camara's frames are captured every couple of milli seconds.

You don't perhaps know of a control were a user can make a selection on a picturebox, while an input from a camara is refreshing the image within the picturebox?

Many thanks

Hi.

Well you don't have to use a lock statement on the picturebox itself: you can use a specially assigned locker object for that (there's more about it in the article I linked to in the previous post). The same goes for having a user make settings: You can have the user make any setting outside of the lock, shortly acquire it to apply the changed settings and then release it for your camera.

I have to say I really don't think the PictureBox control was meant for this kind of usage though. I'd look for a different approach, perhaps using DirectShow.

Hope this helps, cheers.

Standards are great! Everybody should have one!

delegate Question

Hi all,

I have two delegates namely:

<br />
public delegate void initCanonCamara();<br />
public delegate void connectCanonCamara();<br />

I then invoke the delagates by doing the following:

<br />
connectCanonCamara canonConnect = new connectCanonCamara(CanonConnect);<br />
this.Invoke(canonConnect);<br />
            <br />
initCanonCamara canonSdk = new initCanonCamara(CanonSDK);<br />
this.Invoke(canonSdk);<br />

But after all that my UI still hangs on startup .... why Confused | :confused:

... what am I doing wrong Confused | :confused:

?
Please help

Many thanks in advance

Hi,

Could you compile it then run it in debug mode and post the error message please.

Guy

You always pass failure on the way to success.

Sorry if I caused a misunderstanding, but there is no error message nor error, it's just that, while the camera is being initialized in the delegates the screen hangs until the initialization has finished ...

Any suggestions ?

Thanks for the reply

Have you tried threading the initialisation process?

Use the background worker to initialise the camera and once it has been initialised make it available though your app.

You always pass failure on the way to success.

Try BeginInvoke() for asynchronous execution of the delegate.

I had a second look at your code snippet. I guess that this (on which you call Invoke) ist your control. You may try to call BeginInvoke on the delegate itself.

Programm3r14-Mar-08 1:40

I just wat to add that the function that is accosiated with the delegate is updating controls on the form. Will this xcause the problem?

Yes, since you need to do any updates to the UI from the thread they were created on (this would usually be the main thread in your program). I suggest using a BackgroundWorker[^]. You can assign it to do all non UI related work in DoWork and then use ReportProgress and RunWorkerCompleted to update your UI in a thread safe way.
