IdHttpServer表单标题未更新

Question

I know i have posted a similar question before but i am not able to get it working I have this simple code :

procedure TfrmMain.srvrConnect(AContext: TIdContext); //idhttpserver on connect event
var
  S,C : String;
begin
 repeat
  s := s + AContext.Connection.Socket.ReadChar;
 until AContext.Connection.Socket.InputBufferIsEmpty = True;
 frmMain.caption := S;
 Memo1.Lines.Add(S);
end;

The strings displays ok in the memo but the caption doesn't get updated

TIdHTTPServer is a multi-threaded component. TIdContext runs in its own worker thread. You cannot safely update the Form's Caption (or do anything else with the UI) from outside of the main thread. You need to synchronize with the main thread, such as with the TIdSync or TIdNotify class.

On a side note, calling ReadChar() in a loop is very inefficient, not to mention error-prone if you are using Delphi 2009+ since it cannot return data for surrogate pairs.

Use something more like this instead;

type
  TDataNotify = class(TIdNotify)
  protected
    Data: String;
    procedure DoNotify; override;
  public
    constructor Create(const S: String);
    class procedure DataAvailable(const S: String);
  end;

constructor TDataNotify.Create(const S: String);
begin
  inherited Create;
  Data := S;
end;

procedure TDataNotify.DoNotify;
begin
  frmMain.Caption := Data; 
  frmMain.Memo1.Lines.Add(Data); 
end;

class procedure TDataNotify.DataAvailable(const S: String);
begin
  Create(S).Notify;
end;

procedure TfrmMain.srvrConnect(AContext: TIdContext); //idhttpserver on connect event 
var 
  S: String; 
begin 
  AContext.Connection.IOHandler.CheckForDataOnSource(IdTimeoutDefault);
  if not AContext.Connection.IOHandler.InputBufferIsEmpty then
  begin
    S := AContext.Connection.IOHandler.InputBufferAsString; 
    TDataNotify.DataAvailable(S); 
  end;
end;

First, make sure you are writing to the right variable. Are you sure that frmMain is the form you want the caption do change?

Also, you could try:

procedure TfrmMain.srvrConnect(AContext: TIdContext); //idhttpserver on connect event
var
  S,C : String;
begin
 repeat
  s := s + AContext.Connection.Socket.ReadChar;
 until AContext.Connection.Socket.InputBufferIsEmpty = True;
 oCaption := S;
 TThread.Synchronize(nil, Self.ChangeCaption);
end;

procedure TfrmMain.ChangeCaption;
begin
 Self.Caption := oCaption;
 Memo1.Lines.Add(oCaption);
end;

And finally, make sure that the first line on S is not a blank line, because the form's caption will not show strings that contains a line feed.
