How to break a heavy loop by a pressing a button

Luis Fernando

Hi.
I am developing an application to perform video processing. I would like to interrupt the process (break the loop) by pressing a "Stop"button, that changes the value of a flag in the while loop. However, when I press the stop button the application stops responding. I am working with C# Express 2008.
If any idea, please post it. Thanks in advance.

Can you post your loop code?

Thanks for replying John, but your idea does not overcome the problem.

Try adding the following line to the end of your processing loop:

System.Threading.Thread.Sleep( 1 );
