Vorgehensweise: Downloaden einer Datei im Hintergrund

Artikel
05/04/2023

Das Herunterladen von Dateien ist eine häufige Aufgabe, und es ist oft sinnvoll, diesen potenziell zeitaufwendigen Vorgang in einem separaten Thread auszuführen. Mithilfe der BackgroundWorker-Komponente können Sie diese Aufgabe mit nur wenigen Codezeilen ausführen.

Beispiel

Im folgenden Codebeispiel wird die Verwendung einer BackgroundWorker-Komponente zum Laden einer XML-Datei über eine URL veranschaulicht. Wenn der Benutzer auf die Schaltfläche Herunterladen klickt, ruft der Click-Ereignishandler die RunWorkerAsync-Methode einer BackgroundWorker-Komponente auf, um den Downloadvorgang zu starten. Während des Downloads ist die Schaltfläche deaktiviert, und nach Abschluss des Downloads wird sie wieder aktiviert. Ein MessageBox zeigt den Inhalt der Datei an.

        backgroundWorker1 = new System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker();
        backgroundWorker1.DoWork += new System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventHandler(this.backgroundWorker1_DoWork);
        backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerCompleted += new System.ComponentModel.RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler(this.backgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted);
    }

    private void downloadButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // Start the download operation in the background.
        this.backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync();

        // Disable the button for the duration of the download.

Warten auf die Beendigung von „BackgroundWorker“

Der downloadButton_Click-Ereignishandler veranschaulicht, wie auf den Abschluss der asynchronen Aufgabe einer BackgroundWorker-Komponente gewartet wird.

Wenn die Anwendung nur auf Ereignisse reagieren soll und im Hauptthread keine Vorgänge ausgeführt werden sollen, während auf den Abschluss des Hintergrundthreads gewartet wird, können Sie den Handler einfach beenden.

Wenn Sie im Hauptthread weitere Schritte ausführen möchten, verwenden Sie die IsBusy-Eigenschaft, um zu ermitteln, ob der BackgroundWorker-Thread noch ausgeführt wird. Im Beispiel wird eine Statusanzeige aktualisiert, während der Download verarbeitet wird. Sie müssen die Application.DoEvents-Methode aufrufen, damit die Benutzeroberfläche weiterhin auf Aktionen reagiert.

private void downloadButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // Start the download operation in the background.
    this.backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync();

    // Disable the button for the duration of the download.
    this.downloadButton.Enabled = false;

    // Once you have started the background thread you
    // can exit the handler and the application will
    // wait until the RunWorkerCompleted event is raised.

    // Or if you want to do something else in the main thread,
    // such as update a progress bar, you can do so in a loop
    // while checking IsBusy to see if the background task is
    // still running.

    while (this.backgroundWorker1.IsBusy)
    {
        progressBar1.Increment(1);
        // Keep UI messages moving, so the form remains
        // responsive during the asynchronous operation.
        Application.DoEvents();
    }
}

Private Sub downloadButton_Click( _
    ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As EventArgs) _
    Handles downloadButton.Click

    ' Start the download operation in the background.
    Me.backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync()

    ' Disable the button for the duration of the download.
    Me.downloadButton.Enabled = False

    ' Once you have started the background thread you 
    ' can exit the handler and the application will 
    ' wait until the RunWorkerCompleted event is raised.

    ' If you want to do something else in the main thread,
    ' such as update a progress bar, you can do so in a loop 
    ' while checking IsBusy to see if the background task is
    ' still running.
    While Me.backgroundWorker1.IsBusy
        progressBar1.Increment(1)
        ' Keep UI messages moving, so the form remains 
        ' responsive during the asynchronous operation.
        Application.DoEvents()
    End While
End Sub

Anzeigen des Ergebnisses

Die backgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted-Methode behandelt das RunWorkerCompleted-Ereignis und wird aufgerufen, wenn der Hintergrundvorgang abgeschlossen ist. Diese Methode überprüft zuerst die AsyncCompletedEventArgs.Error-Eigenschaft. Wenn AsyncCompletedEventArgs.Error den Wert null aufweist, zeigt die Methode den Inhalt der Datei an. Anschließend wird die Schaltfläche "Herunterladen" wieder aktiviert, die zu Beginn des Downloads deaktiviert wurde, und die Statusanzeige wird zurückgesetzt.

private void backgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted(
    object sender,
    RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    // Set progress bar to 100% in case it's not already there.
    progressBar1.Value = 100;

    if (e.Error == null)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(document.InnerXml, "Download Complete");
    }
    else
    {
        MessageBox.Show(
            "Failed to download file",
            "Download failed",
            MessageBoxButtons.OK,
            MessageBoxIcon.Error);
    }

    // Enable the download button and reset the progress bar.
    this.downloadButton.Enabled = true;
    progressBar1.Value = 0;
}

Private Sub backgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted( _
    ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs) _
    Handles backgroundWorker1.RunWorkerCompleted

    ' Set progress bar to 100% in case it isn't already there.
    progressBar1.Value = 100

    If e.Error Is Nothing Then
        MessageBox.Show(document.InnerXml, "Download Complete")
    Else
        MessageBox.Show("Failed to download file", "Download failed", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
    End If

    ' Enable the download button and reset the progress bar.
    Me.downloadButton.Enabled = True
    progressBar1.Value = 0
End Sub

Verweise auf die Assemblys "System.Drawing", "System.Windows.Forms" und "System.XML".

Stabile Programmierung

Überprüfen Sie immer die AsyncCompletedEventArgs.Error-Eigenschaft im RunWorkerCompleted-Ereignishandler, bevor Sie auf die RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs.Result-Eigenschaft oder auf ein anderes Objekt zugreifen, auf das der DoWork-Ereignishandler Einfluss haben kann.
