How do I prevent any button click events from queuing until the event handle is finished with the first call

Question

I want to prevent a button click from queuing. In testing I have a Form, a Button and in the Code-Behind I have the event handler:

    private void button1_C         


        

Answer 1

I had a button that on click event was going to run a method. Same issue happent and when the user clicked multiple times the method was triggered multiple times. So I made a boolean and changed it value when the method started.

private bool IsTaskRunning = false

private void MyMethod(){

if(IsTaskRunning==false){

       IsTaskRunning=true;

       //My heavy duty code that takes a long time

        IsTaskRunning=false;    //When method is finished

   }
 }

So now the method runs only if it's done the last time.
