Hi
I have a program that has Classes
- GUI
- Upload
- and a buffer between the 2 classes - ie used to communicate between the 2 classes .
The Upload class uses Process to run an command line FTP app. I want to return what output produced by the FTP app to be displayed in a textbox in the GUI.
I have tried using the following code that has been truncated.
Upload Class (beginProcess() is a method used to start the Thread (not shown here)):
public delegate void WputOutputHandler(object sender, DataReceivedEventArgs e);
class Upload
{
private WputOutputHandler wputOutput;
beginProcess()
{
Process pr = new Process();
pr.StartInfo.FileName = @"wput.exe";
pr.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
pr.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
pr.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
pr.OutputDataReceived += new DataReceivedEventHandler(OnDataReceived);
pr.ErrorDataReceived += new DataReceivedEventHandler(OnDataReceived);
pr.Start();
pr.BeginOutputReadLine();
pr.WaitForExit();
}
public void OnDataReceived(object sender, DataReceivedEventArgs e)
{
if(wputOutput != null)
{
wputOutput(sender, e);
}
}
public event WputOutputHandler WputOutput
{
add
{
wputOutput += value;
}
remove
{
wputOutput -= value;
}
}
}
Buffer Class:
public void EventSubscriber()
{
uploadSession.WputOutput += Main.writeToTextBoxEvent;
}
Main Class:
public void writeToTextBoxEvent(object sender, DataReceivedEventArgs e)
{
if(this.textBox1.InvokeRequired)
{
MethodInvoker what now?
}
else
{
textBox1.Text = e.Data;
}
}
As you can see, when it come to the Main method's writeToTextBoxEvent, I've ran out of ideas. I'm not sure whether doing a UI update using a custom event is even the best way to do it. If someone could point me in the right direction I would be most grateful.
Thanks
