Updating ObservableCollection from non UI thread

问题

I am working on a Windows 8 Store app. I have a timer that calls a delegate every two minutes and makes an async web request. The resulting data is added to an observablecollection that is bound to a UI element. Doing this throws an exception because the UI is being modified on a non UI thread. In other places in my code I have done this

await Window.Current.CoreWindow.Dispatcher.RunAsync( CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal, async () =>
{
    ui code here
}

But this is causing a crash with Window.Current being null. I tried passing Window.Current into the delegate as a parameter but this throws a different exception. Are there any suggestions on how to solve this?

回答1:

It's usually easier to have the UI thread call background operations rather than having the background operations update the UI thread.

So, I recommend you use DispatcherTimer, and then you won't need to use Dispatcher at all.

回答2:

Try using

Deployment.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke

or

Application.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke
