Exception when hiding the ProgressForm

[Ciege]

I am using the ProgressForm to display updates to the user during a long process...

Code: Select all

Ranorex.Core.Reporting.TestReport.Setup(ReportLevel.None, "tempTestReport.rxlog", false);
Ranorex.Core.Reporting.TestReport.EnableTracingScreenshots = false;
Ranorex.Core.Reporting.TestReport.ReportWriteInterval = 0;
Ranorex.Controls.ProgressForm.Show();

At the end of the process I am hiding the ProgressForm but getting an exception.

Code: Select all

Ranorex.Controls.ProgressForm.Hide();

Exception:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: System.InvalidOperationException: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'ProgressForm' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.

Hi Ciege,

Thank you for posting us this bug, currently as workaround you can the solution suggested by sdaly
http://www.ranorex.com/forum/can-i-cont ... t2318.html

With Ranorex 3.0.3 we will handle this in our code and you should remove the currently workaround.

Regards,

Yup, I put in the crossthreadcheck = false and the issue is worked around successfully.
Thanks...
