In our code base there is a function which should return either an object or nothing. The exact code is this : Return NothingThe calling method looks something like thismyObj = theClass.function()if myObj <> nothing then // fails
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to call a function everytime it throws an error? I could use try catch, but I need to do it with unexpected errors.

I have created an application using VB.NET in VS2008. When I run the app in the IDE on my development machine it works fine. It also works fine when I build it and run it as an exe on any machine that also has Visual Studio installed (at least 2005 and 2008 anyway) However, when I try to run the compiled executable on any machine without Visual Studio it throws up an error "[program name] has encountered a problem and will close..."

I am trying to get the selected rows from a listview. To achieve this, I did this:
Dim numsel As Integer
numsel = Me.ListView1.Items.Count
For countme As Integer = 0 To numsel
[Code]....
It does count the selected rows, but it always throws out the error saying "ArgumentOutOfRange Exception", or something along those lines. For example, if I selected a row, it will output the results of that row. But the loop goes on. I tried everything I can but to no avail. I specifically want to select multiple rows, and I can achieve that if someone can assist me with this simple "problem" I have.
I have a major problem. Things were going great until I came across this little bug(?) which has thrown a stick in my spokes. As I will demonstrate below, it seems that when defining certain numbers Visual Studio will throw an overflow error.
Dim T As ULong = 14774537964905701134 'Overflow error in the IDE
Dim M As ULong = ULong.MaxValue '(18446744073709551615) we are below the maximum value so it should work, right?
The one solution I have found is that we can use the following declaration instead.
Dim T As ULong = ULong.Parse("14774537964905701134")
However, to make matters even more complicated the value in question is unknown and must be compiled using CodeDOM so using the Parse method isn't an option. Unless there is some way I can determine if that value in particular will give me an overflow error.
I recently upgrade a project from vb 6 to 2008. Most of the code runs fine.I have a webbrowser form control that I use to navigate local files and display them with. (i have a file list box that you click which calls the navigate of the browser control). Most file types i have test work fine and display just as they would in a real browser window. Excel, PDFs, etc... so examples of files that utilize "plugins" like acrobat reader inside the browser work great. Tiff files are the exception. No error is thrown in vb, but the browser throws 2 runtime errors, included at the end here. After the browser errors are ignored the program continues execution but will just not display the file.
i can type the path to the file (eg c: estfielsfilename.tif) in a regular browser window and it displays just like it should, inside IE, using a plugin.Prior to upgrading, depending on what was installed on the computer, navigating to a tif would open the tif with picture and fax viewer, or display it with a tif viewer plugin.

I wrote a vb program that would prompt the user to enter a number and then enter the exponent value they wanted the number raised to. When they clicked button 3 it did the calculation. everything worked perfectly.
Now I need to change the program. I must create a function in a module and then call that function from button3 click event. I have tried several different ways and even though it seems to "work", it keeps returning an incorrect value![code]...

I'm trying to compile a brand new 2010 windows forms application with a form and a single button that should display a msgbox with "hello" in it.When I try to compile I get the error message:
Unable to write to output file <filename>: This implementation is not part of the Windows Platform FIPS validated cryptographic algorithms.
The application that I am working on is a Service Desk App. I have a form there that uses a DropDownList that contains employees names coming from the Active Directory. Any employee can make a request and save it. Problem arises when an employee leaves the company and consequently his account is deleted from the Active Directory. When some other employee searches the DB to finds a relevant Service Ticket that could be of his use, when tries to open it an error is thrown that indicates that the name does not exist in the DropDownList items.
UPDATE:I am adding some code so that it can be more clear.

View 7 RepliesI am attempting to list files within a folder on an FTP site. When I run the debugger, I get a clean run the first time with no problems. Subsequent attempts lead to a 550 error: "The remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)." However, If I step through the process in debugger, It works fine. I'm thinking this is a timeout issue because there are many files within the folder. Any suggestions?

The application was previously using GlobalMemoryStatus() and MEMORYSTATUS structure to retrieve memory information. But since, the Physical memory of the hardware in which the application runs is more than 2GB, the code was changed to use GlobalMemoryStatusEx() and MEMORYSTATUSEX structure. When this function was implemented and the struture was used its thrown compilation error: "error C2501: 'MEMORYSTATUSEX' : missing storage-class or type specifiers"How to solve this issue???

I need top create a function that gets the next integer in the sequence of 1 to 60. Each time the function is called, I need it to increment from what the last value was and return the next number as the result. It also cannot return the same integer in 2 consecutive calls. When the count gets to 60, the sequence needs to reset back to 1. I would like to function to have no parameters.
I have created a function that does this using the cache to store the last value that was returned, but I am worried that with concurrent calls to the function that it might not work as I expect and 2 calls could get the same integer.
Is cache blocking the correct method to use in this instance or is there something other method I am not thinking about?
Also, stuck using .Net 3.5 and this is a web application.
I just wrote this function based on using SyncLock. Any obvious problems with it that I don't see? I am using the Cache to save the last value that was returned.

The enc function works for both encrypting and decrypting (I've tested with a MsgBox alert. The problem I'm having is when the program loads, it reads the file and decrypts it. However, instead of properly working, it returns one character in the first textbox and nothingin the other without any error being thrown.
