Hi Sai.

I have included the project file for examination.

I developed the project in Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition which is available free on Microsoft's website as a download.

Some Code Not All of it:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace SandBox3
{
public partial class MainForm : Form
{
SolutionSleuth m_sleuth = new SolutionSleuth();
private readonly SynchronizationContext m_context;
public MainForm()
{
InitializeComponent();
m_context = SynchronizationContext.Current;
}
private void MainForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
InitListView();
m_sleuth.FileSearched += this.SolutionSleuth_FileSearched;
m_sleuth.SearchCompleted += this.SolutionSleuth_FileSearchCompleted;
}
private void InitListView()
{
lvwFiles.Columns.Clear();
lvwFiles.Columns.Add("File", 100, HorizontalAlignment.Left);
lvwFiles.Columns.Add("Location", 300, HorizontalAlignment.Left);
lvwFiles.Columns.Add("Additional Info", 150, HorizontalAlignment.Left);
}
private async void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
await Task.Run(() => m_sleuth.Search(@"C:\"));
}
private void SolutionSleuth_FileSearched(object sender, FileSearchEventArgs e)
{
// let's do lunch, my thread ui context will get with your thread task context
// ... and update the listview
m_context.Post(new SendOrPostCallback(o =>
{
ListViewItem i = new ListViewItem();
i.Text = e.FileName;
ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem s1 = new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem();
s1.Text = e.FilePath;
i.SubItems.Add(s1);
ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem s2 = new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem();
s2.Text = e.Message;
i.SubItems.Add(s2);
lvwFiles.Items.Add(i);
lblFound.Text = e.FileCount.ToString();
}), e);
}
private void SolutionSleuth_FileSearchCompleted(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("File Search Completed");
}
}
}
