C# backgroundWorker reports string?

Question

How can I report a string (like \"now searching file. . .\", \"found selection. . .\") back to my windows.form from a backgroundWorker as well as a percentage. Additionally,

Answer 1

I'm assuming WCF also have the method

public void ReportProgress(int percentProgress, Object userState); 

So just use the userState to report the string.

private void worker_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
{
 //report some progress
 e.ReportProgress(0,"Initiating countdown");

// initate the countdown.
}

And you'll get that "Initiating countdown" string back in ProgressChanged event

private void worker_ProgressChanged(object sender,ProgressChangedEventArgs e) 
{
  statusLabel.Text = e.UserState as String;
}
