I was reading a couple of articles a while back which I think described a behaviour where you can, in a .net application (specifically VB.net), allow an exception to occur, and then handle it in some kind of application-level exception handler, as opposed to within a Try/Catch block. My google-fu is weak at the moment, so I'm not having much luck guessing what this feature is called in order to find information about it.

I have a SqlDataSource that is supplying data to my GridView. Thats all i am using on my form, thus i have NO code behind at all. But somewhere i need a TRY CATCH block just in case my connection get's lost. What code must i place where?

An application raises the UnhandledException event when it encounters an unhandled exception.
For instance, you can use this event to ask user send you a report by email.

I want to do the following:Show my own "an exception hasoccured" dialog, with a "Send Report"button After the user dismissed thebox, I want to close my app, but I donot want to Windows default crash dialog "Theapplication needs to close" box toshow up.
View 2 RepliesI created a custom collection class with some methods: each of these has some parameters and throws an exception if a parameter is not valid.For example, the Add and Remove methods throw an NullReferenceException if one of their parameters is null.[code]...The Replace method replaces an item in the collection with another specified object: to reach the goal, it first calls the Remove method and after the Add method. Obviously the Replace method could throw exceptions if at least one of the specified parameters is null, because Remove and Add methods could throw exceptions.Is this the right way to go? Or should I also check the parameters in the Replace method as in the following code? [code]...In fact, in this second case, each check would be executed twice: first in the Replace method and after in the Remove and Addmethods, which are called by Replace, and in other cases the checks may be rather expensive.
View 1 RepliesIs there a way I can catch and handle two different exceptions within the same exception type? For example:
Try
' My code
Catch ex As System.Net.WebException
End Try
I have 2 different exceptions that are System.Net.WebException. I want to handle them different ways. Problem is the catch block above catches them both. Is there a way I can determine if which of the two it is and handle them differently?
I have a relatively simple VB.NET app. It targets framework 2.0 from Visual Studio 2010. The app works fine most of the time, except that the users sometimes receive the
following exceptions. The error is completely random and somewhat rare. I haven't been able to trap it while in a development environment. It also doesn't appear to be
pointing at my code. My app continues to run if the users ignore the error. How would I trap and handle this error?
I wonder how to use statement handles exceptions?Do I need to wrap the using statements with a Try/Cath/Finally clause in order to be sure that the SqlConnection object is closed and disposed even if the containing code throws an exception? [code]
View 3 RepliesI am creating an Excel add-in written in VB.NET. I would like to bind KeyDown and KeyUp events to the spreadsheet to record when the user presses and releases the arrow keys while navigating the spreadsheetIdeally, these events would be built into Excel alongside the native SheetActivate and SheetSelectionChange events, for example. Alas, they are not.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on an ASP.NET web application, written using Visual Basic, and I'm trying to track down an error message that I'm getting.I'd like to get it to log the exception to a file (or the event log) so I can see it, as the error only occurs on the production server, and not on the development environment (therefore VS isn't installed on there...).
Does anyone have any thoughts as to best practice as to how to do this ?
I've just skipped around a few inbuilt VB classes' methods which throws exception. of all that i've came across, methods may throw multiple exceptions but ALL of them are exclusive, meaning there is no way 2 exceptions will ever occur simultaneously, yea and i was trying to make my class throw 2 exceptions simultaneously, hence this question, must all exceptions be exclusive?

View 2 RepliesIf I have a low level dll called low.dll. I then create another dll, say my.dll that references low.dll.
Now, if I create an application that references my.dll, I should not have to reference low.dll in the application correct?? This does not seem to be happening. The application will not compile as it cannot see low.dll, even though it does not access it directly.
How do you change an application level settings after compiling? I've searched Google and am at a loss. I've tried modifying the APPNAME.config file in the deployment directory but it doesn't change the application level settings.

View 2 RepliesSo I wrote a VB.net project in Visual studio.I have a scheduled task that is set to run the program every morning at 10AM. If I use windows explorer and double click the application, it runs fine.If I open task scheduler, open the task properties, and browse to the application, then choose run, the program fails, due to Runtime exceptions.I know I have the path entered correctly, since I can debug the instance when it crashes from the task scheduler. VS2010 pulls up my source code.The exception is System.IO.FileNotFoundException, remember, it works fine when I double click the app. If attach a debugger to the process after it is executed from the task scheduler, I can then restart the debugger, and Voila!, The application runs fine.
View 1 RepliesI bet someone already asked this but i cant seem to find it. Ok i need is a global settings that can be updated which will affect all users. I was using xml files in the program filestill now and I need to get around using this because the files can be delete or over written incorrectly. I started using the settings option and realized application level is read only and i cannot use user scope because then it wont be global settings. Is there an alternative to this.

View 2 RepliesI was surfing the next to get some of the powerful elements that .NET has over other langauges when it comes to VB.NET and I was told to learn delphi.
Since this is a VB.NET forum I was hoping you guys could tell me why I should stick with VB.NET over a language like delphi.
I have a program that I would like to create application-level MouseEnter and MouseLeave events for. Basically I have an app that I'd like to leave open that would be very opaque when not in use, and when the user moves the mouse anywhere within the bounds of the application, it becomes solid, and when they move their mouse away from the application, it becomes opaque again.
The obvious problem is that MouseEnter and MouseLeave are control-specific and so they fire every time you move over a button or menu or whatever, so Leave and Enter are constantly firing even though you haven't "left" or "entered" the application.
So, is there any way to create mouse events that only fire at the application level?
been banging my head on this, i need to get the applications path, then go up 1 folder then into another. As i have a main app and sub apps.
So were Application.StartupPath()is for example:"C: Main app folderSub app folder"How do i then go up a folder to"C: Main app folder"I Know it needs some string removal using on it but i can seem to get it right, after which i could then use Application.StartupPath() 'string removal here" & " ools"to navigate to another sub apps folder etc.

View 1 RepliesI have a table, lets call it Objects. It has a predefined set of records looking like this:
ObjectId ObjectName
1 Salmon
2 Trout
3 Seabass
4 Shark
Etc..
So, this I would like to implement somehow as an enum. But what's the best way, implement it in the database creating tables for it or in the application logic in an CommonEnums codebehind file etc?
In Visual Basic 2008, there's two different ways that I know of to accomplish the same thing:The Dim on the member level:
Dim counter1 as integer = 0
Dim counter2 as integer = 180

I have created a simple program which uses a two tier structure of SQL Tables.At the top level, one record holds the date of the activities and linked to it using its primary key as a foreign key, three subordinate tables hold time stamped records.The issue I have been unable to solve is that before adding any of the lower level records for a given date, a newly added top level record must be saved to the database.Doing this manually is simple - but can I rely on my users to remember to do this before they start plugging in the lower level data?I thought not, so I am looking to save the top level automatically.I've failed miserably but I refuse to believe that it's not possible.
