The "The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it" error occurs in C# when you try to access or modify a UI element from a thread other than the one that created it. In WPF and WinForms applications, UI elements can only be accessed or modified by the thread that created them, which is usually the main (UI) thread.
- For WPF applications, use the
Dispatcher
:
Application.Current.Dispatcher.Invoke(() => { // Access or modify UI elements here });
private void Timer_Elapsed(object sender, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e) { str = $"{++num}_{DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmssffff")}_{Guid.NewGuid().ToString()}\n"; Application.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new Action(() => { rtbRun = new Run(str); //testParagraph.Inlines.Clear(); testParagraph.Inlines.Add(rtbRun); })); }
//whole code using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Threading; using System.Threading.Tasks; using System.Windows; using System.Windows.Controls; using System.Windows.Data; using System.Windows.Documents; using System.Windows.Input; using System.Windows.Media; using System.Windows.Media.Imaging; using System.Windows.Navigation; using System.Windows.Shapes; namespace WpfApp111 { /// <summary> /// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml /// </summary> public partial class MainWindow : Window { static UInt64 num = 0; private string str { get; set; } = string.Empty; private Run rtbRun { get; set; } public MainWindow() { InitializeComponent(); System.Timers.Timer timer = new System.Timers.Timer(); timer.Elapsed += Timer_Elapsed; timer.Interval = 1000; timer.Start(); } private void Timer_Elapsed(object sender, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e) { str = $"{++num}_{DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmssffff")}_{Guid.NewGuid().ToString()}\n"; Application.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new Action(() => { rtbRun = new Run(str); //testParagraph.Inlines.Clear(); testParagraph.Inlines.Add(rtbRun); })); } } }
