Exception with AppStyling & Form Constructor
posted

Hello,

We are experiencing an exception during the constructor of a form.

Error: An item with the same key has already been added.

   at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentException(ExceptionResource resource)
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Insert(TKey key, TValue value, Boolean add)
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Add(TKey key, TValue value)

   at System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Location(Point value)
   at MyView.InitializeComponent() in D:\DOTNET\Local\MyView.Designer.vb:line 102
   at MyView..ctor()

 

During application startup, a seperate thread is started where all views are preloaded. At the same time the constructor of the main form is called.

We suspect this is a threading issue and that the AppStyling is not completely thread safe.

 

Kind regards,
