Inter process data handling between tcp client thread to active forms

Question

I have tcp client socket thread which receives data update frequently. what is the best way to store the data and send appropriate data to active forms.

Answer 1

TCP client thread can extract data from TCP socket and do one of the following. Data can be deserialized before passing to active form.

1.Put data(object) in shared data structure like list, queue or stack and raise a event on active form.

2.Put data(object) in shared data structure like list, active form has already subscribed to collection changed event of data structure.

3.Directly raise an event on active form with passing received data(object) as event parameter
