在。net下使用c#和WPF(而不是Windows窗体或控制台),创建一个只能作为单个实例运行的应用程序的正确方法是什么?

我知道它与某种叫做互斥的神秘事物有关,我很少能找到有人费心停下来解释其中一个是什么。

代码还需要通知已经运行的实例,用户试图启动第二个实例,如果存在命令行参数,还可能传递任何命令行参数。


当前回答

我添加了一个sendMessage方法到NativeMethods类。

显然,如果应用程序没有显示在任务栏中,postmessage方法不会工作,但是使用sendmessage方法解决了这个问题。

class NativeMethods
{
    public const int HWND_BROADCAST = 0xffff;
    public static readonly int WM_SHOWME = RegisterWindowMessage("WM_SHOWME");
    [DllImport("user32")]
    public static extern bool PostMessage(IntPtr hwnd, int msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam);
    [DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
    public static extern IntPtr SendMessage(IntPtr hWnd, int Msg, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam);
    [DllImport("user32")]
    public static extern int RegisterWindowMessage(string message);
}

其他回答

[我在下面提供了控制台和wpf应用程序的示例代码。]

在创建命名的Mutex实例后,只需检查createdNew变量的值(示例如下!)。

布尔值createdNew将返回false:

如果命名为“YourApplicationNameHere”的互斥锁实例已经存在 在系统某处创建

布尔值createdNew将返回true:

如果这是第一个名为“YourApplicationNameHere”的互斥锁 系统。

控制台应用程序-示例:

static Mutex m = null;

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    const string mutexName = "YourApplicationNameHere";
    bool createdNew = false;

    try
    {
        // Initializes a new instance of the Mutex class with a Boolean value that indicates 
        // whether the calling thread should have initial ownership of the mutex, a string that is the name of the mutex, 
        // and a Boolean value that, when the method returns, indicates whether the calling thread was granted initial ownership of the mutex.

        using (m = new Mutex(true, mutexName, out createdNew))
        {
            if (!createdNew)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("instance is alreday running... shutting down !!!");
                Console.Read();
                return; // Exit the application
            }

            // Run your windows forms app here
            Console.WriteLine("Single instance app is running!");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }


    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {

        Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

WPF-Example:

public partial class App : Application
{
static Mutex m = null;

protected override void OnStartup(StartupEventArgs e)
{

    const string mutexName = "YourApplicationNameHere";
    bool createdNew = false;

    try
    {
        // Initializes a new instance of the Mutex class with a Boolean value that indicates 
        // whether the calling thread should have initial ownership of the mutex, a string that is the name of the mutex, 
        // and a Boolean value that, when the method returns, indicates whether the calling thread was granted initial ownership of the mutex.

        m = new Mutex(true, mutexName, out createdNew);

        if (!createdNew)
        {
            Current.Shutdown(); // Exit the application
        }

    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
        throw;
    }

    base.OnStartup(e);
}


protected override void OnExit(ExitEventArgs e)
{
    if (m != null)
    {
        m.Dispose();
    }
    base.OnExit(e);
}
}

下面是我使用的一个轻量级解决方案,它允许应用程序将一个已经存在的窗口带到前台,而无需求助于自定义窗口消息或盲目地搜索进程名。

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern bool SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr hWnd);

static readonly string guid = "<Application Guid>";

static void Main()
{
    Mutex mutex = null;
    if (!CreateMutex(out mutex))
        return;

    // Application startup code.

    Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable(guid, null, EnvironmentVariableTarget.User);
}

static bool CreateMutex(out Mutex mutex)
{
    bool createdNew = false;
    mutex = new Mutex(false, guid, out createdNew);

    if (createdNew)
    {
        Process process = Process.GetCurrentProcess();
        string value = process.Id.ToString();

        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable(guid, value, EnvironmentVariableTarget.User);
    }
    else
    {
        string value = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(guid, EnvironmentVariableTarget.User);
        Process process = null;
        int processId = -1;

        if (int.TryParse(value, out processId))
            process = Process.GetProcessById(processId);

        if (process == null || !SetForegroundWindow(process.MainWindowHandle))
            MessageBox.Show("Unable to start application. An instance of this application is already running.");
    }

    return createdNew;
}

编辑:你也可以静态地存储和初始化互斥量和createdNew,但是一旦你完成了它,你需要显式地释放/释放互斥量。就我个人而言,我更喜欢将互斥锁保持在本地,因为即使应用程序在未到达Main结束时就关闭,它也会被自动销毁。

下面是一个示例,它允许您拥有应用程序的单个实例。当加载任何新实例时,它们将参数传递给正在运行的主实例。

public partial class App : Application
{
    private static Mutex SingleMutex;
    public static uint MessageId;

    private void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)
    {
        IntPtr Result;
        IntPtr SendOk;
        Win32.COPYDATASTRUCT CopyData;
        string[] Args;
        IntPtr CopyDataMem;
        bool AllowMultipleInstances = false;

        Args = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();

        // TODO: Replace {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} with your application's GUID
        MessageId   = Win32.RegisterWindowMessage("{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}");
        SingleMutex = new Mutex(false, "AppName");

        if ((AllowMultipleInstances) || (!AllowMultipleInstances && SingleMutex.WaitOne(1, true)))
        {
            new Main();
        }
        else if (Args.Length > 1)
        {
            foreach (Process Proc in Process.GetProcesses())
            {
                SendOk = Win32.SendMessageTimeout(Proc.MainWindowHandle, MessageId, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero,
                    Win32.SendMessageTimeoutFlags.SMTO_BLOCK | Win32.SendMessageTimeoutFlags.SMTO_ABORTIFHUNG,
                    2000, out Result);

                if (SendOk == IntPtr.Zero)
                    continue;
                if ((uint)Result != MessageId)
                    continue;

                CopyDataMem = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(Win32.COPYDATASTRUCT)));

                CopyData.dwData = IntPtr.Zero;
                CopyData.cbData = Args[1].Length*2;
                CopyData.lpData = Marshal.StringToHGlobalUni(Args[1]);

                Marshal.StructureToPtr(CopyData, CopyDataMem, false);

                Win32.SendMessageTimeout(Proc.MainWindowHandle, Win32.WM_COPYDATA, IntPtr.Zero, CopyDataMem,
                    Win32.SendMessageTimeoutFlags.SMTO_BLOCK | Win32.SendMessageTimeoutFlags.SMTO_ABORTIFHUNG,
                    5000, out Result);

                Marshal.FreeHGlobal(CopyData.lpData);
                Marshal.FreeHGlobal(CopyDataMem);
            }

            Shutdown(0);
        }
    }
}

public partial class Main : Window
{
    private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        HwndSource Source;

        Source = HwndSource.FromHwnd(new WindowInteropHelper(this).Handle);
        Source.AddHook(new HwndSourceHook(Window_Proc));
    }

    private IntPtr Window_Proc(IntPtr hWnd, int Msg, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam, ref bool Handled)
    {
        Win32.COPYDATASTRUCT CopyData;
        string Path;

        if (Msg == Win32.WM_COPYDATA)
        {
            CopyData = (Win32.COPYDATASTRUCT)Marshal.PtrToStructure(lParam, typeof(Win32.COPYDATASTRUCT));
            Path = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(CopyData.lpData, CopyData.cbData / 2);

            if (WindowState == WindowState.Minimized)
            {
                // Restore window from tray
            }

            // Do whatever we want with information

            Activate();
            Focus();
        }

        if (Msg == App.MessageId)
        {
            Handled = true;
            return new IntPtr(App.MessageId);
        }

        return IntPtr.Zero;
    }
}

public class Win32
{
    public const uint WM_COPYDATA = 0x004A;

    public struct COPYDATASTRUCT
    {
        public IntPtr dwData;
        public int    cbData;
        public IntPtr lpData;
    }

    [Flags]
    public enum SendMessageTimeoutFlags : uint
    {
        SMTO_NORMAL             = 0x0000,
        SMTO_BLOCK              = 0x0001,
        SMTO_ABORTIFHUNG        = 0x0002,
        SMTO_NOTIMEOUTIFNOTHUNG = 0x0008
    }

    [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=true, CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
    public static extern uint RegisterWindowMessage(string lpString);
    [DllImport("user32.dll")]
    public static extern IntPtr SendMessageTimeout(
        IntPtr hWnd, uint Msg, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam,
        SendMessageTimeoutFlags fuFlags, uint uTimeout, out IntPtr lpdwResult);
}

从这里。

跨进程互斥锁的一个常见用途是确保一个程序一次只能运行一个实例。以下是如何做到的:

class OneAtATimePlease {

  // Use a name unique to the application (eg include your company URL)
  static Mutex mutex = new Mutex (false, "oreilly.com OneAtATimeDemo");

  static void Main()
  {
    // Wait 5 seconds if contended – in case another instance
    // of the program is in the process of shutting down.
    if (!mutex.WaitOne(TimeSpan.FromSeconds (5), false))
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Another instance of the app is running. Bye!");
        return;
    }

    try
    {    
        Console.WriteLine("Running - press Enter to exit");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
    finally
    {
        mutex.ReleaseMutex();
    }    
  }    
}

互斥锁的一个很好的特性是,如果应用程序在没有首先调用ReleaseMutex的情况下终止,CLR将自动释放互斥锁。

这么简单的问题有这么多答案。稍微改变一下这里是我对这个问题的解决方案。

Creating a Mutex can be troublesome because the JIT-er only sees you using it for a small portion of your code and wants to mark it as ready for garbage collection. It pretty much wants to out-smart you thinking you are not going to be using that Mutex for that long. In reality you want to hang onto this Mutex for as long as your application is running. The best way to tell the garbage collector to leave you Mutex alone is to tell it to keep it alive though out the different generations of garage collection. Example:

var m = new Mutex(...);
...
GC.KeepAlive(m);
