如何以编程方式退出第二个消息循环?

我正在尝试创建第二个消息循环,以便在C#中异步处理/过滤低级别消息。它的工作原理是创建一个隐藏的表单,公开它的Handle属性以便挂钩,并在一个单独的线程中运行第二个消息循环。目前我对结果非常满意,但我无法正确退出第二个循环。唯一的解决方法是将IsBackground属性设置为true,因此第二个线程将在主应用程序出口处简单地终止(不处理所有待处理的消息)。

问题是:如何正确退出该消息循环,以便第二个Application.Run()返回?我尝试了不同的方法创建一个单独的ApplicationContext并控制各种事件(Application.ApplicationExit,Application.ThreadExit,ApplicationContext.ThreadExit),但他们都失败了竞争条件我无法调试。

任何提示?感谢

这是代码:

public class MessagePump
{
    public delegate void HandleHelper(IntPtr handle);

    public MessagePump(HandleHelper handleHelper, Filter filter)
    {
        Thread thread = new Thread(delegate()
        {
            ApplicationContext applicationContext = new ApplicationContext();
            Form form = new Form();
            handleHelper(form.Handle);
            Application.AddMessageFilter(new MessageFilter(filter));
            Application.Run(applicationContext);
        });
        thread.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA);
        thread.IsBackground = true; // <-- The workaround
        thread.Start();
    }
}

public delegate bool Filter(ref Message m);

internal class MessageFilter : IMessageFilter
{
    private Filter _Filter;

    public MessageFilter(Filter filter)
    {
        _Filter = filter;
    }

    #region IMessageFilter Members

    public bool PreFilterMessage(ref Message m)
    {
        return _Filter(ref m);
    }

    #endregion // IMessageFilter Members
}

我以这种方式在主构造构造函数中使用它:

_Completion = new ManualResetEvent(false);

MessagePump pump = new MessagePump(
delegate(IntPtr handle)
{
    // Sample code, I did this form twain drivers low level wrapping
    _Scanner = new TwainSM(handle);
    _Scanner.LoadDs("EPSON Perfection V30/V300");
},
delegate(ref Message m)
{
    // Asyncrhronous processing of the messages
    // When the correct message is found -->
    _Completion.Set();
}

您应该将Form实例作为参数传递给ApplicationContext ctor:

applicationContext = new ApplicationContext(form); 

现在,您基本上是在创建一个无上下文的实例,它不关心您的表单是否已关闭。

此外,最好进行一些清理工作,例如在不再需要时删除过滤器:

Form form = new Form();
ApplicationContext applicationContext = new ApplicationContext(form);
handleHelper(form.Handle);

MessageFilter filter = new MessageFilter(filter);
Application.AddMessageFilter(filter);
Application.Run(applicationContext);
Application.RemoveMessageFilter(filter);

如果您不想显示表单,则可以使用无参数的ctor,但是您必须通过调用ApplicationContext.ExitThread方法手动关闭上下文。如果您在构造函数中传递表单,则当表单触发FormClosed事件时,实际上会调用此方法。

由于隐藏表单与上下文无关,因此您需要在某个时间退出它们。

我最终意识到thread.IsBackground = true;并不坏,因为这是确定“嘿,我是最后一个线程运行的唯一方法,我应该放弃”。仍然需要正确的资源清理,这很难。为此,需要第三个资源清理代表,我只是将其注册到AppDomain.CurrentDomain.ProcessExit事件。我甚至为MessageLoop类提供了一个ExitLoop()方法(问题中是MessagePump)。通过这种方式,我可以随时终止消息循环。 “ExitLoop()”和“ProcessExit”处理程序的关键部分是互斥的。

    public class WindowHandle : NativeWindow

可以这样使用:

_Completion = new ManualResetEvent(false);

MessageLoop messageLoop = new MessageLoop(
delegate(IntPtr handle) // Resource initializing
{
    // Sample code, I did this form twain drivers low level wrapping
    _Scanner = new TwainSM(handle);
    _Scanner.LoadDs("EPSON Perfection V30/V300");
},
delegate(ref Message m) // Message filtering
{
    // Asyncrhronous processing of the messages
    // When the correct message is found -->
    _Completion.Set();
},
delegate(IntPtr handle) // Resource cleaning
{
    // Resource cleaning/disposing. In my case, it's the following...
    _Scanner.Dispose();
}, true); // Automatically quit on main application shut-down

// Anytime you can exit the loop
messageLoop.ExitLoop();
