Exemplos

O exemplo de código a BackgroundWorker seguir demonstra os conceitos básicos da classe para executar uma operação demorada de forma assíncrona. A ilustração a seguir mostra um exemplo da saída.

Exemplo

Para experimentar esse código, crie um aplicativo do Windows Forms. Adicione um Label controle nomeado resultLabel e adicione dois Button controles nomeados startAsyncButton e cancelAsyncButton. Crie Click manipuladores de eventos para ambos os botões. Na guia Componentes da Caixa de Ferramentas, adicione um BackgroundWorker componente chamado backgroundWorker1. Criar DoWork, ProgressChangede manipuladores RunWorkerCompleted de eventos para o BackgroundWorker. No código do formulário, substitua o código existente pelo código a seguir.

Comentários

A BackgroundWorker classe permite que você execute uma operação em um thread separado e dedicado. Operações demoradas, como downloads e transações de banco de dados, podem fazer com que sua interface do usuário pareça ter parado de responder enquanto eles estão em execução. Quando você deseja uma interface do usuário responsiva e enfrenta longos atrasos associados a essas operações, a BackgroundWorker classe fornece uma solução conveniente.

Para executar uma operação demorada em segundo plano, crie um BackgroundWorker e ouça eventos que reportem o progresso da operação e sinalizem quando a operação for concluída. Você pode criar programaticamente BackgroundWorker ou arrastá-lo para o formulário na guia Componentes da Caixa de Ferramentas. Se você criar o BackgroundWorker Designer de Formulários do Windows, ele aparecerá na Bandeja de Componentes e suas propriedades serão exibidas na janela Propriedades.

Para configurar uma operação em segundo plano, adicione um manipulador de eventos para o DoWork evento. Chame sua operação demorada neste manipulador de eventos. Para iniciar a operação, chame RunWorkerAsync. Para receber notificações de atualizações de progresso, manipule o ProgressChanged evento. Para receber uma notificação quando a operação for concluída, manipule o RunWorkerCompleted evento.

Se sua operação em segundo plano exigir um parâmetro, chame RunWorkerAsync com seu parâmetro. Dentro do DoWork manipulador de eventos, você pode extrair o parâmetro da DoWorkEventArgs.Argument propriedade.

Para obter mais informações sobre BackgroundWorker, consulte Como executar uma operação em segundo plano.
