Hello guys I try to add text to my text box but didn't work and give this error:
System.InvalidOperationException: 'Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'log_txtbox' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on

What I have tried:

private void Events_ClientDisconnected(object sender, ClientDisconnectedEventArgs e)
{
    log_txtbox.Text += Environment.NewLine + DateTime.Now.ToString() + e.IpPort + " : " + "quit";
}

Solution 1

You can't update the UI from another thread. Depending on whether you're using WinForms or WPF, the solution is different.

WinForms:

C#

log_txtbox.Invoke(() => 
{
    log_txtbox.Text += .....;
});

WPF:

C#

this.Dispatcher.Invoke(()=>
{
    log_txtbox.Text += ....;
});

Try doing this:

log_txtbox.Text = string.Concat(log_txtbox.Text, Environment.NewLine, DateTime.Now.ToString(), e.IpPort.ToString())," : join");

I gotta say, be a programmer. I corrected my reply when I realized I had made that error, but it would have been just as simple for you to do it on your own.
