Custom Event and Cross-thread operation not valid Question

[C# Programming]

Hi all,

I am busy developing a custom TCP/IP server. The server has a few events namely, NewTcpData, NewTcpClient and TcpClientDisconnected. At the moment I just want to know of these events.

So I have created the events and all is working fine, but as soon as I call the event from my GUI app, I receive a message stating: Cross-thread operation not valid ...

So normally I would hook the GUI control to the SynchronizationContext.
For example:


context.Send(new SendOrPostCallback((s) => this.textBox1.Text = "Some Data"), null);



So, my question: how can I develop / alter the event(s) (which runs on a separate thread that the main) to not make use of the above technique, and still be able to send / set data to the GUI controls?

Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
