Dear sirs,

in our vb.net application, we have 2 forms. The first form has a button and when pressed, it opens the second form. The second form is like an image viewer, it has thumbnails(using a treelist control) and one bitmapViewer1 control, on which we show images. The images loaded in the second form, are located in a specific folder. What we want to do is to delete this folder(and all files included) when second form closes, but the problem is that we get this error:

"The process cannot access the file 'C:\fld\2.jpg' because it is being used by another process."

but deletes the other 2 files and does NOT delete the folder. Suppose we see 3 images on the second form, the c:\fld folder has 1.jpg, 2.jpg and 3.jpg. We use this:

Code:
Private Sub secondForm_FormClosed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosedEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosed    
ImageList1.Images.Clear()
                ImageList1.Dispose()
                ImageList1 = Nothing
                treelist1.Items.Clear()
                treelist1.Dispose()
                treelist1= Nothing
                bitmapViewer1.Bitmap.Unlock()   'Just in case it is locked, but we never use .Lock method
                bitmapViewer1.Bitmap.Dispose()
                bitmapViewer1.Bitmap = Nothing
                bitmapViewer1.Dispose()
                bitmapViewer1 = Nothing
                bitmapViewer1.Bitmap.Unlock()   
                IO.Directory.Delete("C:\fld\", True) 'Here comes the error 'process cannot access the file......
End Sub

Few times it deletes all files and the folder, but most times it does not, it raises the error shown above. We do not make any use of .Lock method.

What is wrong with it ? How can we make it possible to delete the folder and both 3 files when form closed?

Of course we never open or access any file on the folder!!!

Thanks in advance,

firamax

Hello,

Please, review your source code and check whether you close all opened readers and writers (in case if you use them) before you close the form.

Sincerely yours,

Well, i use this code to the thumbnails :

Code:

For Each frame As TiffFrame In tiffReader
                Dim thumbnailBitmap As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap
                frame.GetThumbnail(thumbnailBitmap, thumbnailSizeWidth, thumbnailSizeHeight)
                Dim thumbnail As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap = CreateThumbnail(thumbnailBitmap)
                thumbnailsView.Items.Add("Page " & (number + 1).ToString(), number)
                thumbnailsView.Items.Item(number).Tag = arrayTagData
                imageList.Images.Add(thumbnail.ToGdiplusBitmap())
                number += 1
                frame.Dispose()
                thumbnail.Dispose()
                Exit For ' I need only the 1st page in case of multi page tiff
Next

But i never close the reader.

Can you please give a sample on how to close this tiffReader ?

Ok, i found it. I needed to use the .Close() method for each reader i opened.

Dmitry, thanks a lot for accurate understanding/answer of my problem !!!
