Multithreading A Function in VB.Net
- by Ben
I am trying to multi thread my application so as it is visible while it is executing the process, this is what I have so far:
Private Sub SendPOST(ByVal URL As String)
Try
Dim DataBytes As Byte() = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("")
Dim Request As HttpWebRequest = TryCast(WebRequest.Create(URL.Trim & "/webdav/"), HttpWebRequest)
Request.Method = "POST"
Request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
Request.ContentLength = DataBytes.Length
Request.Timeout = 1000
Request.ReadWriteTimeout = 1000
Dim PostData As Stream = Request.GetRequestStream()
PostData.Write(DataBytes, 0, DataBytes.Length)
Dim Response As WebResponse = Request.GetResponse()
Dim ResponseStream As Stream = Response.GetResponseStream()
Dim StreamReader As New IO.StreamReader(ResponseStream)
Dim Text As String = StreamReader.ReadToEnd()
PostData.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
If ex.ToString.Contains("401") Then
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text & URL & "/webdav/" & vbNewLine
End If
End Try
End Sub
Public Sub G0()
Dim siteSplit() As String = TextBox1.Text.Split(vbNewLine)
For i = 0 To siteSplit.Count - 1
Try
If siteSplit(i).Contains("http://") Then
SendPOST(siteSplit(i).Trim)
Else
SendPOST("http://" & siteSplit(i).Trim)
End If
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Next
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim t As Thread
t = New Thread(AddressOf Me.G0)
t.Start()
End Sub
However, the 'G0' sub code is not being executed at all, and I need to multi thread the 'SendPOST' as that is what slows the application.
