Hi,
The code you sent me works fine, but very very slow. My code works much faster:

foreach (string d in Directory.GetDirectories(Start_dir))
{
if (!d.Contains("Shared Documents") && !d.Contains("Anna") && !d.Contains("CE Group") && !d.Contains("DEF") && !d.Contains("DtReport")
&& !d.Contains("images") && !d.Contains("Lists") && !d.Contains("MMGBD") && !d.Contains("Site") && !d.Contains("SP Requests")
&& !d.Contains("STAM") && !d.Contains("Training") && !d.Contains("uptest") && !d.Contains("X5") && !d.Contains("X8")
&& !d.Contains("Form") && !d.Contains("Yonah"))
{
//System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(200);
foreach (string f in Directory.GetFiles(d))
{
//System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(200);
//MessageBox.Show(f);
m=f.Replace("\\"+"\\moss.ger.ith.intel.com\\sites\\MPGBD-03\\HAL\\PD\\","");
//MessageBox.Show(m);
if (m.Contains(search1))
{
MessageBox.Show("found");
//System.Net.WebClient client = new WebClient();
//client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
//client.DownloadFile(f, @"c:\\123.gif");
//Process.Start(@"c:\\123.gif");

//System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500);
//Process.Start(f);
review_file_found = true;
return;
}
}
dirsearch(d, search1);
}
}

The problem is that with this code (with the messagebox.show("found")
it finds the file (the message appears).
But when i usethe process.start and try to open the file or even to download it it seems as it doesn't see the file at all (some files it sees and some not). It seems as it doesn't enter the if condition at all (even don't do the -
review_file_found=true
because outside this method i check the status of the bool and show a messagebox says the file not found. But the program does find it if i don't do the process.start

Maybe i need to use another way to open the file?

Here is an example of the file path:
\\moss.ger.ith.intel.com\sites\MPGBD-03\HAL\PD\Puma M Reviewd FIB edits\002_pumam_b0_flsh2.GIF

How to know when a Message Box has been shown for a form?

The NULL Developer29-May-09 2:52

Re: How to know when a Message Box has been shown for a form?

29-May-09 2:52

In my application, I have a task which is running on a background thread. I need a notification in the background thread when ever a MessageBox or any modal dialog is displayed in the UI thread.

Though I can do it manually by calling some function before displaying the MessageBox, but it will be great if I dont have to.

For e.g.:

backgroundThread.MessageShown(); // I do not want to call this explicitly every time!
MessageBox.Show("Task halted!");

I am guessing there might me some message which can be hooked on to. Even in the main GUI thread, is there any message/event that get fired just before a modal dialog is shown?

Why should a task that runs on a worker thread need to know of it every time a message box is shown in the UI? This sounds strange to me. Perhaps there is a better way to do it, but only if you explain what you are trying to achieve.

Re: How to know when a Message Box has been shown for a form?

29-May-09 3:12

Okay, here is the requirement. I have some tasks which are done on the UI thread, and I have to show progress on a separate dialog, which is been shown on a worker thread. I understand that it should be the tasks which must be done on worker thread, but the current scenario cannot be changed for the time being.

Every thing is working fine, except for one glitch - if a message box is shown in the UI thread, it gets hidden below the progress dialog. So the user never gets to know that UI is waiting for an input. I need a way to get notified that a modal dialog box has been shown and I should hide the progress dialog.

Right now, I have to hide it explicitly just before every call to MessageBox.

I hope that explains.

The NULL DeveloperI have some tasks which are done on the UI thread, and I have to show progress on a separate dialog, which is been shown on a worker thread.

This defeats the purpose of a worker thread (because it cannot happily do its work on the background), and defeats the purpose of having the main thread as an UI thread (which is a thread with a message pump and you have blocked it with some lengthy processing). Blocking the message pump is just atrocious.

The NULL DeveloperEvery thing is working fine, except for one glitch - if a message box is shown in the ...

No! The glitch is that you are blocking the application's message pump. Just please have the worker thread do the lengthy processing and let it also notify the UI of the progress.

Rajesh, I fully agree with you, as I had mentioned and as I had said, this scenario cannot be changed because these are already existing applications written that way. And that application is HUUUUUGE!

So I had to do it the other way.

I agree with the others that the design is flawed but you seem to be aware of that.

You could wrap the message box call into your own static method with the call to the backgroundThread and MessageBox.Show, and call your method instead each time.

Dave, that will serve the purpose for MessageBox only. What about existing custom modal dialog boxes?

The NULL Developerand I have to show progress on a separate dialog, which is been shown on a worker thread

So you're saying that the progress dialog is launched by the background thread instead of the UI thread? If so, there's your problem. ALL UI, including the progress dialog should be created on the UI thread, not a background thread. You can invoke a method from the background thread to update the progress bar. If you can't change this, you're pretty much screwed. There is no notification your app is about to create a new dialog.

The CBT Hook is what would be looking for but it's a huge overkill solution to the problem of showing the window on the wrong thread in the first place.

Does anybody know how I can add a ruler to my text editor project, or know any links for articles?

Thanks all,
