How can I catch this TypeInitializationException? Don't really care if it is C# or VB.NET code. Here is some sample code of what I am trying to figure out (this is not real code - just something to show what I am dealing with):
Public Class Test
Public Shared testObj as Object = CreateObj()
Public Shared Function CreateObj() as Object
throw new Exception("Ha!")
[code]....
Suppose I have no control over CreateObj method.
I have run my program a thousand times throughout its creation and have never had a problem. I entered some code for a NumericUpDown control, and now I get this error whenever a variable is assigned a value. The code for the NumericUpDown control doesn't contain anything, really. No new variables, nothing. If I take the code out, the program works just like it did a thousand times before. What gives?

The program stops and breaks in the form where I call my main (which starts the main as soon as the form opens). Does anyone see why this pice of code would cause this error?

My MSSQL 2008 and VS2005 were corrupted out of sudden. I had reinstalled .net Framework 2.0, .net Framework 2 SP2, MSSQL 2008 and VS2005.
After installation and without any code modification, I tried to debug the program and I got the below error message.An unhandled exception of type 'System.TypeInitializationException' occured in Production.exe.Additional information: The type initializer for 'Common' threw an exception.
I have a program in VB.Net that receives mails from Outlook, extracts attachments and inserts the attachments into a table through a query. I would like to put the query/queries in a Try/Catch block, but cannot do so as Outlook exceptions cannot be caught, and it gives me an error, and unless I put a very specific exception, I cannot catch it. Is there a workaround?
Edit:
Try
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Exception is underlined and when I hover on it, it says: "Catch cannot catch type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Exception' because it is not in 'System.Exception' or a class that inherits from 'System.Exception'". This is affecting all my other code which I'd like to put into a Try/Catch block.
The following code causes a "Warning" that Variable is used before value assigned.How do I restructure this Try/catch to eliminate error on the myreader.close command in the Catch part? Code appears to work fine but I dont like Warnings. [code]

View 6 RepliesI have this scenario: in a Sub I have a Try...Catch statement.Within that Try..Catch I call another sub.In that 2nd sub is also a Try...Catch.(see below for example).Now if an exception occurs in the 2nd sub's Try...Catch, which Catch gets excecuted? The 2nd one, the 1st one or both?
Private Sub sub1()
Try
..do stuff[code].....
If I throw an exception from within a catch, does the finally (from the catch) still execute? i.e.
Try

I need to catch log4net exceptions (its own exceptions not app exceptions logged by it). I wish there's a way of doing it this way: [code] I have this code implemented and there's no errors in compilation but i force log4net to have an error (pointing to a non existing database in the config file) and nothing is threw.I've tried the listener aproach: [code] and it's writing the errors to log4net.txt, the forced ones i mean.This last aproach has a couple of drawbacks: it won't append every error to the file, if the error is the same it doesn't write it, i can't get the listener to write every error to that file, only one (I don't know how to fully configure the trace listener, it might be that). Thus it won't append the date and hour to every line wich is a necesity for me. Finally i can't give structure to it (xml). Even if the listener work i need to use the try/catch aproach, since i'm using ExceptionHandling from Enterprise library to log the errors in my app.

I have a project converted from Visual Studio 2005 to Visual Studio 2010. It compiles and runs.
When I prune "unused references's from this project as listed by Visual Studio, the project fails to compile with the subject error message.
In particular one of the "unused refererences" is to "Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll". The IDE does not allow me to add back this particular reference.
What do I need to add back as a referenceto get this items?
A few weeks back in reply to a thread, I said then that it's sometimes worse to use a Try/Catch when there's nothing in the Catch!There are exceptions to that I'm sure, but too often the Try/Catch is used with a blank Catch that makes even the developer scratch their heads when the program crashes because they have nothing to go on (by their own doing).DevExpress (and I'm a big fan of their stuff) has a little three minute video that encapsulates that concept well and I thought that you all might enjoy watching it:[URL]
View 1 RepliesI understand how try-catch works and how try-finally works, but I find myself using those (usually) in two completely different scenarios:
try-finally (or using in C# and VB) is mostly used around some medium-sized code block that uses some resource that needs to be disposed properly.
try-catch is mostly used either
around a single statement that can fail in a very specific way or (as a catch-all) at a very high level of the application, usually directly below some user interface action.
In my experience, cases where a try-catch-finally would be appropriate, i.e., where the block in which I want to catch some particular exception is exactly the same block in which I use some disposable resource, are extremely rare. Yet, the language designers of C#, VB and Java seem to consider this to be a highly common scenario; the VB designers even think about adding catch to using.
Or am I just overly pedantic with my restrictive use of try-catch?
EDIT: To clarify: My code usually looks like this (functions unrolled for clarity):
Try
do something
Aquire Resource (e.g. get DB connection)
Try
[Code]....
which just seems to make much more sense than putting any of the two catches on the same level as finally just to avoid indentation.
I couldn't find a way to catch the event when fn+ another key is pressed. I could only catch other keys and the alt, ctrl and shift key.
View 2 RepliesI have a SQLite database that I wish to read records from and execute a piece of code against each record.I am using a While loop with a Try Catch INSIDE it...Code is as follows:-
result = slcom.ExecuteReader()
'TODO: There is a problem with this while loop whereby if an ex is caught the connection
' to the database is closed.
While result.Read
[code]....
The problem is, once the Try block is entered and an ex is caught, the next iteration of the while loop fails, as it seems the minute an ex is caught the connection to the SQLite database is closed, eventhough the connection properties state that it is open.
I still looking for the answer, while I'm still trying this Visual Studio to develop some web app using VB.net language.

View 8 RepliesI've written a DLL that contains a bunch of classes. One of my methods validates the contents of a file and throws any necessary exceptions based on invalid content - I'm using a standard "throw new exception." call the thing is, when my code reaches the line where the exception is thrown, my Visual Studio IDE hangs up on that line instead of the external call to my validate method.
[Code]...
So my IDE is actually pulling up the VB file that contains the DLL content and highlights the line in the ValidateFile instead of just hanging on the oFC.ValidateFile method line where the exception is thrown instead of the IDE hanging on the oFC.ValidateFile line in my calling application.
