[Solved] Cross-thread operation not valid: Control ‘Form1’ accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on

by


In this case, write invoke operation inside of method. Then you can access both from control’s thread and other threads.

delegate IntPtr GetWindowHandleDelegate();

private IntPtr GetWindowHandle() {

    if (this.InvokeRequired) {

        return (IntPtr)this.Invoke((GetWindowHandleDelegate)delegate() {

            return GetWindowHandle();

        });
    }

    return this.Handle;
}

or, if you want to avoid delegate hell, you could write in more few code with built-in delegate and lambda.

private IntPtr GetWindowHandle() {
    if (this.InvokeRequired)
        return (IntPtr)this.Invoke((Func<IntPtr>)(GetWindowHandle));

    return this.Handle;
}
