Must I litter my code with this.Invoke if a multi-thread a Winforms app?

Question

I'm just wondering if there's a better pattern for accessing UI elements in a multi-threaded winform application. I'm currently using delegates and this.Invoke calls, which works, it just doesn't feel elegant.

Thanks.

There is no way around that if you don't want to create a method for each Invoke you could use the MethodInvoker with a delegate: if (textBox1.InvokeRequired) textBox1.BeginInvoke(new MethodInvoker(delegate { textBox1.Text = Anything; }));
