这是一个古老问题的新视角，使用了更实用的风格。如果您在所有项目中都保留TaskXM类，那么只有一行代码不再担心跨线程更新。

public class Example
{
    /// <summary>
    /// No more delegates, background workers, etc. Just one line of code as shown below.
    /// Note it is dependent on the Task Extension method shown next.
    /// </summary>
    public async void Method1()
    {
        // Still on the GUI thread here if the method was called from the GUI thread
        // This code below calls the extension method which spins up a new task and calls back.
        await TaskXM.RunCodeAsync(() =>
        {
            // Running an asynchronous task here
            // Cannot update the GUI thread here, but can do lots of work
        });
        // Can update GUI on this line
    }
}


/// <summary>
/// A class containing extension methods for the Task class
/// </summary>
public static class TaskXM
{
    /// <summary>
    /// RunCodeAsyc is an extension method that encapsulates the Task.run using a callback
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="Code">The caller is called back on the new Task (on a different thread)</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public async static Task RunCodeAsync(Action Code)
    {
        await Task.Run(() =>
        {
            Code();
        });
        return;
    }
}

Marc Gravell的.NET 4最简单解决方案的变体：

control.Invoke((MethodInvoker) (() => control.Text = "new text"));

或者改用Action委托：

control.Invoke(new Action(() => control.Text = "new text"));

请参阅此处了解两者的比较：MethodInvoker与Action for Control.BeginInvoke

您可以使用现有的委托操作：

private void UpdateMethod()
{
    if (InvokeRequired)
    {
        Invoke(new Action(UpdateMethod));
    }
}

这是您应该采用的经典方法：

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Threading;

namespace Test
{
    public partial class UIThread : Form
    {
        Worker worker;

        Thread workerThread;

        public UIThread()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            worker = new Worker();
            worker.ProgressChanged += new EventHandler<ProgressChangedArgs>(OnWorkerProgressChanged);
            workerThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(worker.StartWork));
            workerThread.Start();
        }

        private void OnWorkerProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedArgs e)
        {
            // Cross thread - so you don't get the cross-threading exception
            if (this.InvokeRequired)
            {
                this.BeginInvoke((MethodInvoker)delegate
                {
                    OnWorkerProgressChanged(sender, e);
                });
                return;
            }

            // Change control
            this.label1.Text = e.Progress;
        }
    }

    public class Worker
    {
        public event EventHandler<ProgressChangedArgs> ProgressChanged;

        protected void OnProgressChanged(ProgressChangedArgs e)
        {
            if(ProgressChanged!=null)
            {
                ProgressChanged(this,e);
            }
        }

        public void StartWork()
        {
            Thread.Sleep(100);
            OnProgressChanged(new ProgressChangedArgs("Progress Changed"));
            Thread.Sleep(100);
        }
    }


    public class ProgressChangedArgs : EventArgs
    {
        public string Progress {get;private set;}
        public ProgressChangedArgs(string progress)
        {
            Progress = progress;
        }
    }
}

工作线程有一个事件。UI线程启动另一个线程来完成工作，并挂接该工作线程事件，以便显示工作线程的状态。

然后在UI中，您需要跨线程来更改实际控件。。。如标签或进度条。

对于.NET 2.0，下面是我编写的一段代码，它完全符合您的需要，适用于控件上的任何属性：

private delegate void SetControlPropertyThreadSafeDelegate(
    Control control, 
    string propertyName, 
    object propertyValue);

public static void SetControlPropertyThreadSafe(
    Control control, 
    string propertyName, 
    object propertyValue)
{
  if (control.InvokeRequired)
  {
    control.Invoke(new SetControlPropertyThreadSafeDelegate               
    (SetControlPropertyThreadSafe), 
    new object[] { control, propertyName, propertyValue });
  }
  else
  {
    control.GetType().InvokeMember(
        propertyName, 
        BindingFlags.SetProperty, 
        null, 
        control, 
        new object[] { propertyValue });
  }
}

这样称呼：

// thread-safe equivalent of
// myLabel.Text = status;
SetControlPropertyThreadSafe(myLabel, "Text", status);

如果您使用的是.NET 3.0或更高版本，可以将上述方法重写为Control类的扩展方法，这样可以简化对以下内容的调用：

myLabel.SetPropertyThreadSafe("Text", status);

2010年10月5日更新：

对于.NET 3.0，应使用以下代码：

private delegate void SetPropertyThreadSafeDelegate<TResult>(
    Control @this, 
    Expression<Func<TResult>> property, 
    TResult value);

public static void SetPropertyThreadSafe<TResult>(
    this Control @this, 
    Expression<Func<TResult>> property, 
    TResult value)
{
  var propertyInfo = (property.Body as MemberExpression).Member 
      as PropertyInfo;

  if (propertyInfo == null ||
      !@this.GetType().IsSubclassOf(propertyInfo.ReflectedType) ||
      @this.GetType().GetProperty(
          propertyInfo.Name, 
          propertyInfo.PropertyType) == null)
  {
    throw new ArgumentException("The lambda expression 'property' must reference a valid property on this Control.");
  }

  if (@this.InvokeRequired)
  {
      @this.Invoke(new SetPropertyThreadSafeDelegate<TResult> 
      (SetPropertyThreadSafe), 
      new object[] { @this, property, value });
  }
  else
  {
      @this.GetType().InvokeMember(
          propertyInfo.Name, 
          BindingFlags.SetProperty, 
          null, 
          @this, 
          new object[] { value });
  }
}

它使用LINQ和lambda表达式来允许更干净、更简单和更安全的语法：

// status has to be of type string or this will fail to compile
myLabel.SetPropertyThreadSafe(() => myLabel.Text, status);

现在不仅在编译时检查了属性名称，而且属性的类型也是如此，因此不可能（例如）将字符串值分配给布尔属性，从而导致运行时异常。

不幸的是，这并不能阻止任何人做一些愚蠢的事情，例如传递另一个控件的属性和值，因此以下内容将很好地编译：

myLabel.SetPropertyThreadSafe(() => aForm.ShowIcon, false);

因此，我添加了运行时检查，以确保传入的属性实际上属于调用该方法的控件。虽然不完美，但仍比.NET2.0版本好得多。

如果有人对如何改进此代码以确保编译时安全有任何进一步的建议，请发表评论！

激发并忘记.NET 3.5的扩展方法+

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public static class ControlExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Executes the Action asynchronously on the UI thread, does not block execution on the calling thread.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="control"></param>
    /// <param name="code"></param>
    public static void UIThread(this Control @this, Action code)
    {
        if (@this.InvokeRequired)
        {
            @this.BeginInvoke(code);
        }
        else
        {
            code.Invoke();
        }
    }
}

这可以使用以下代码行调用：

this.UIThread(() => this.myLabel.Text = "Text Goes Here");
