i have a 1 button called print button inside of it is a lot of validation an in the end of the line code is the print function. Validating the data if it pass the requirements takes 10 to 15 seconds, i want to reduce the waiting time, what if i have 2 buttons the one is save button for validation of the data and while i wait i can click the print button, how can i click the print button while the other button (save) is saving/validating the data?

What I have tried:

i tried to reduce the line code as much as i can but the main problem is that connecting in the server and validating the data if it pass the requirements is taking to much time.

Hi,

The idea of splitting a big task (validation, save, print) into several smaller tasks are always good. So the way that you are thinking is correct. Now you just need to step in Multi-thread programming. This means create a thread and assign the save action to that to run independently of the main thread, this will let you to not be blocked by the save process then you can follow your own idea of having a separate button for print.

If this did not solve your problem then please leave a comment and I will assist you by improving my solution until your problem gets solved.

Cheers,
AH
