Re: Wrapping FileSystemWatcher to prevent crossthread ops

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Well, I asked for a better way. I just noticed the
..SynchronizingObject property, which can automatically marshall events
to the correct thread for any form, control, or class I choose; and
which exists for not only FileSystemWatcher, but apparently all other
WinForms components that can raise events on foreign threads.

I will console myself by saying that this was at least a good exercise.
:)
