"Object is currently in use elsewhere" exception OnPaint
posted

I am currently using an UltraWinToolbar.  We are - very infrequently - seeing the Exception below come up from the OnPaint of the toolbar.  What I suspect is happening is that I am using a single Appearance object as the appearance for two different tools, and there sometimes is a race condition as the two try to access the same image at the same time.  I plan to switch to using two different appearances which reference the same image, but since this is not at all an easily reproducible issue, it's also not a fix which I can verify with much confidence. 

So I thought I'd ask the experts - have you seen an issue like this before?  Should I avoid using the same appearance object for more than one tool?  Does this fix seem plausible to avoid this rare, timing-sensitive exception?

It's also possible the race condition is for the bitmap object wrapper, or even further down in the ResourceManager.

appearanceEmail = new Infragistics.Win.Appearance();

appearanceEmail.Image = global::FrontendControls.Resources.FrontendControlsResources.email;

appearanceEmail.ForeColor = System.Drawing.SystemColors.ControlText;

    Are you using the image on forms which are on different threads? If so, it is definitely possible that is what's causing the error and I would recommend cloning the image to use on different threads. If not, I'm not sure what would cause the issue, but I don't think it would be caused by using the same appearance on two tools, so I'm not sure if fixing that would help. If your application is not multi-threaded I would submit the issue to the support group: http://es.infragistics.com/gethelp.
