Closing Application Via X Button Without Closing Forms Inside Mdiparent Causes Exception Error
May 3, 2010Form1 is a mdi container. It has a bunch of forms that can load inside of it as mdi children. If I close each open form inside the form1, and then click the red X at the top right, application exits fine.If I click the red X without closing the forms inside I get: An unhandled exception of type 'System.CannotUnloadAppDomainException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Error while unloading appdomain. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131015) However I can break from it. How do I get the application to not show that error? What must I do to fix those inside forms or close when the red x is clicked?
Settings Form Closing
Jun 28, 2010I have a test app driven by bluetooth serial events In my form load code I hide the cursor so it doesn't get in the way of pictures (fullscreen)When one event is called by bluetooth, it brings up a msgbox and the user has to click OK. I tried Windows.Forms.Cursor.Show() but it doesn't work.
I'm guessing it's something to do with delegates and events and the form, but the debugger doesn't complain at any point. It just refuses to show the cursor.How can I get my serialport event to show the cursor? And then hide it after?
Application.Settings VB 2005 - Save Arrays Using The Settings System Object
Jan 14, 2009I just wondered if you can or can't save arrays using the settings system object. There seems to be no way of entering it at designtime. It seems implied you cannot create new user settings.subobjects at runtime. I'm looking to find the easiest way to save a populated array of PictureBox's. If the only way is a self/custom made/managed .ini file then I need to know so i can start on that but I was hoping to use some of all this phaff in the new frameworks usefully.

Save A Collection Of Key/value Settings In My Application's "user Settings"?
Apr 14, 2008I'm trying to save a collection of key/value settings in my application's "user settings" (they're column widths), but while I see no errors, when I run the code (in the IDE) my collection in "My.Settings" is always nothing at startup. I do a "My.Settings.Save" when the application exits, and barring the "serializers not found" errors in the IDE, no other errors occur. When I run my application as an exe, it behaves the same way..

Jul 12, 2011Which is the best way to store application and user settings of an application running with multiple instances?My problem is that using the vb's "Application Settings" one instance would overwrite the other one.I want to identify each instance with a number passed via command line argument. I could use this number to identify the appropriate settings of the running instance, but I see in a local INI o XML file a better way to handle that.
View 1 RepliesApplication Not Closing Correctly
Nov 12, 2011I'm having a problem over here; I'm developing a DirectX 9 application, and for some reason, I can't figure the way to close the application completely. This has never happened to me, to be honest. I am using Application.Exit(), which doesn't seem to do anything - it just closes the form, but the program is still running. I have also tried End, but it throws a run-time error I can't seem to figure out.

How Could Application Form In Vb Be Closing By Itself
Feb 24, 2012I have a form in a Pocket PC app that is set to be the Application form using:Application.Run(New frmMain())Somehow this form is getting closed for no reason while working on another form. No closing event is fired and nowhere in my code can you close the main form anyway. It is only closed by clicking the OK button at the top right of the window. When this is clicked, the user is prompted if he/she really wants to close the application. However, this is not occurring either.Basically, I am on another form which adds a new record to the database. After adding the record the gotFocus event is somehow called for frmMain. When the code in the gotFocus event reaches a reference to a control on the form, there is an exception that states that the object is disposed.

As a last resort ( and this doesn't work ), because WordDocument.close does not work, Word Application. Quit does not work!

I know some will say it is not a good idea, I know, I know I really need to get rid of it.

View 2 RepliesVS 2010 Closing Application Not Just Form?
Jun 11, 2012How can I ensure an application is fully closed when the user selects the close window X at the top of the form. It appears to just close the current form by default which is leaving the program still loaded in memory when the user thinks they have closed it. I have tried capturing the close and running application.exit but this closes the whole application even when I only want the current form closed.

Feb 28, 2011I have an app that is on a network drive. Around 100 people will be using the app.
Right now, I have 2 people testing it. They found a couple of bugs, I fixed them, and made the changes.
However, before I could update the app, they had to close it because I can't delete a file that is in use.
how I might prompt the user that the app will be closing in "x" amount of seconds for updating?
.net - Calling New StackTrace Blocks When Closing Application
Sep 12, 2011I just did some analysis by using a global function which is called GetCallingMethod in my case.
Mostly it works great. But some cases the application is blocked. It is blocked when closing the application. When going to "pause" in Visual Studio, it stays on the new StackTrace line forever.
In my application I am using third party references, multithreading and several classes. But all that should not be a problem and should not lock the tracer class as far as I imagine. I am using Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate in this case.
This line will never be left in development area. Application will is frozen. Try/Catch will not force the procedure.

Blue Screen When Closing VB10 Application?
Mar 8, 2012I am developing a simple application in VB10 that uses ADO.net to store data in an Access database, and gets input via a serial port RS232. It works well, but is not fully debugged. Unfortunately, a problem has recently started where as soon as i close the program I get a blue screen. Makes it hard to debug. The solution does not even have to have run; it just has to have been loaded and then exit VB10. The blue screen aslo happens to most of the other example solutions that I have downloaded.
Questions:
1)How do you capture the STOP error codes (probably stupid question)?
2) Is there an easy solution that rings a bell? My IT support is trying but not getting anywhere. Have to believe it is hardware related, but the hard drive checks out with testing.
Closing Child Form Closes Application?
Aug 16, 2011I've made a Windows Forms Application that runs fine. It has some buttons that open child forms, which can simply close again without any problem. As I need the form to be in a dll, I changed the application type to a class library and added an extra project containing an exe-file that only references the main form in the dll and shows it. So far so good...
The main form is basically a tabcontrol with a bunch of controls, buttons among others. Five buttons on different tabs use the same handler to open a child form. When I click the button on the first tab everything works fine. The form opens and when it closes, only the child closes. When I click any of the buttons on the other tabs, the child form opens and when it closes again, both the child and the main form close...
I am stumped, especially since all buttons use the same code to open the child form and everything appears to be completely identical, yet the results are not. Below I have pasted the code that opens the main and child forms. I am undoubtedly not looking in the right place, but I also have no idea where to look anymore, let alone what to look for...
The code opening the main form:
Public Sub StartProgram()
'Load the form and show it
Dim frmProgram As frmMain = New frmMain

Loaded PDF In AxAcroPDF Crashes When Closing My Application

When closing my application I get the following message
The instruction at "0x0700609c" referenced memory at "0x00000014". The memory could not be read.
I've been google-ing this error message, but seen only a lot of problems, but no solutions.
I also tried using the WebBrowser Control, but this gives the same error.

For some reason it still quits!The update window is in a separate form to the main form, so the user clicks 'Finish', the update form closes and the main form stays open.[code]
