MessageBox issue

  • Article

On NETCF V2, a message box is automatically closed if MessageBox.Show() is called after a form is closed. This is different behavior from NETCF V1 and Desktop (V1/V2).

To work around the issue, simply call Message.Show() on another thread with codes like this:

In the Main() function, add the following lines after Application.Run():

Thread

t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(DoWork));

           t.Start();

           t.Join();

Add the following method to the Form class:

static

void DoWork()

{

            MessageBox.Show("finish");

}
