I have a timer to verify one condition every time and show pop up form only once if the condition is verified. I want to verify in parallel all instances, so i used parallel.for, but i have this error "Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'CameraViewVS' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on." in line " frm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal;"
this is my code:
public void timer1_Tick(object source, EventArgs e)
{
Parallel.For(0, nbre, l =>
{
cameraInstanceList[l].Start();
if (cameraInstanceList[l].MoveDetection == true)
{
//show the the form S once
foreach (Form S in Application.OpenForms)
{
var frm = S as Formes.CameraViewVS;
if (frm != null && frm.IP == cameraInstanceList[l].adresse)
{
cameraInstanceList[l].MoveDetection = false;
frm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal;
frm.Activate();
return;
}
}
f1 = new Formes.CameraViewVS(cameraInstanceList[l],
adresseIPArray[l]);
f1.Show(this);
}
}
);
