threading problem

[friend]

Hi all,

I am trying to implement multithreading in myproject.
I have created a thread say thread1, and i am running a splashscreen
in that thread.

Public thread1 As Thread
thread1 = New Thread(AddressOf BackgroundWork)
thread1.Start()

Public Sub BackgroundWork()
SplashScreen1.ShowDialog()
End Sub

I have to kill this thread at one point in my program. I am using
thread1.abort(), but the splashscreen1 doesnt go from the vision. If i
move the mouse pointer or other the splashscreen disappears.

The splashscreen should disappear as soon as the thread is killed. How
to solve this issue.

Thank you for any suggestion.

A thread should be ended cleanly rather than being killed. Just let the
thread to comes to its end (you could sleep as you wish in the thread).

Before further discussion, have you checked the application framework that
already include Slashscreen support ? For example :

I agree with Patrice that Abort should not be called.
If you don't want to use the Application Framework, just close the Form
from the thread that created the Form by invoking the close method:

SplashScreen1.Invoke(New MethodInvoker(AddressOf SplashScreen1.Close))

so what could be other way to stop the other thread (in which
splashscreen is running)

Thanks to all

Close the Form from the thread that created the Form by invoking the
close method.

Close the Form from the thread that created the Form by invoking the
close method.

How to access the other thread when I am in current thread?
