Exception Handling In Winforms Application Using A Global Error Handler?
Sep 9, 2009I have a Windows Form application that has a global error handler to display unexpected errors.
Namespace My
Class MyApplication
Delegate Sub ProcessParametersDelegate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal args() As String)
[code]....
1) for the same deployed code, I SOMETIMES get line number in the displayed StackTrace error message and sometimes do not, even when the error message includes source code that I have written rather than a referenced binary. The project is compiled with a DEBUG configuration.
2) The application strangely minimizes to the tray when the error occurs (I thin it is unlikely that anyone can diagnose this issue w/o my more code posted, but I'll mention it anyways)
3) When I try to intentionally raise an error by, for example, dividing by zero hoping to test by global error handler, I get a dialog error message from the interactive debugger rather than jumping into my global error handler (which i want to debug because there is more to it than I posted.) Do you have any idea how to triggerand force teh execution of the global event handler?
SQL Statement Error - Setup A Basic Login Screen
Mar 14, 2012I'm trying to build my first program and I've run into a few problems with SQL. I have a database with customers and employees (among other things) and I'm trying to set up a basic login screen. Users log in with their EmployeeID (primary key) This part deals with logging in for the first time. It checks the database for a user with that ID and grabs the password. If the password is not empty / null, it shows a message box and stops there. If the password is empty/null it is meant to confirm and then update the new password. This is where my understanding ends. Debugging shows the error is definitely in the SQL update, but I can't see any errors...

Jun 8, 2011I am using VS 2008 VB and setup my application software in Win XP without any issue. But after installed in Win 7, it doesn't work well (it show one file not found, but I saw the file in the right folder). Could it be the incompatibility of VS 2008 and Win 7? If I upgrade to VS 2010, will the issue be fixed?

View 3 RepliesDeploying Application With Setup.exe And Setup.msi?
Oct 29, 2011I'm a Visual Basic beginner. There are many things that I didn't know about Windows software development as I've been a Mac user for 20 years and just started developing Windows programs several days ago.
Anyway, using Visual Studio Installer (File > Add > New Project > Visual Studio Installer), I have two files inside the Release folder - setup.exe and Setup.msi. I've got some information about these files. So when you publish your software, what do you do with these two files? According to one web site, you can put them together into one with IExpress, which produces a file with an extension of CAB. Another web site suggests SFX Compiler. In the meantime, I downloaded a dozen applications at Download.com earlier. If I click on the download button, the final delivery extension is .exe on most of them. I know that you won't go anywhere by double-clicking on setup.exe from the Release folder without Setup.msi. Meanwhile, Setup.msi is a tand-alone application. But nobody uses this file alone to distribute their product.
VS 2008 - Basic Loop Setup To Delete All Files In Particular Folder
Apr 5, 2010I've set up a basic loop to delete all the files in a particular folder. I've set the loop in a Try block so it doesn't crash the application when it gets to a file it can't delete. I'd like for the app to just pass over these type of files. At the moment, my loop stops completely when it gets to that exception.

Sep 8, 2009I have an object, say Order where if an error occurs, it raises the ErrorOccurred event. If I'm running some code in say, the codebehind for a .aspx page with an public Order registered as WithEvents and I want to check to see if an error has occurred before I run more code, how do I do this?

Running A Setup.exe Program Inside Visual Basic 2008 Express?
Jan 21, 2010I am in process of writing a setup program that will reside in a USB stick.After inserting the Stick the VB2008E program starts (dont know how) and guides the technician to do certain tasks. As a part of this She/He needs to run a Setup.exe that resides in the same USB stick.
1- How do I define the drive letter of this USB stick.
2- How do I run the x:Setup.exe program without exiting the VB2008? The install process should begin after click of a button.
3- Would Autorun work on USB drives to run the program automaticaly?
4- How do I compile to make a single EXE file at the end?

View 3 RepliesError Handling. When And When Not It's Needed?
Dec 21, 2009Obviously error handling is a major factor in making a good application. If a error happens letting a user know what has gone wrong.But some times error handling may(i think) not be needed. Example.
Private Sub RemoveCheckedl()
Try
For Each Item As ListViewItem In lst.CheckedItems[code]....
also when error handling it's could to think about what type of errors could be made.
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
even though this catches the error and displays a msg, it may not be a great message for the user so he/she can understand.

C# - How To Design Overall Error Handling System
Jul 22, 2010I am looking at implementing a Web Service API for our product. I have figured out how you go about the general architecture/fault handling within WCF. My question is a more general one of how to design the overall error handling system. For example I have a method called SaveCompany (companyobject). Each company name needs to be unique. Say you tried to save a second company called "ABC Inc.". Would you expect to get back a fault named "DuplicateCompanyFault", or would you expect to get back an error code, or something else? I guess the root of my question is would you prefer to receive faults to handle, error code, or some combination? These services are going to be consumed by multiple different entities outside our company on multiple non-.NET platforms.
