Strange Errors - ASP.NET

Jonathan Wood

I'm having my site email errors to me until I get things as stable as
possible. Occasionally, I get an error that I just cannot see how it could
ever happen. I enabled debugging on the live site so that I could get
line-number information. But I'm still at a loss.

I've posted an error below, and the code below that. Somehow,
grdWorkout.Data Keys[grdWorkout.Sele ctedIndex] is causing an
ArgumentOutOfRa ngeException, even though I had tested for SelectedIndex
== -1.

Does anyone have any clues as to how this could happen?

Thanks.

You tested for -1 on selectedindex, you have not tested for the validity of
the datakeys collection which is where the error is coming from. What you
need is this:

if(grdWorkout.D ataKeys.Length 0)
queries["WorkoutDetailI D"] =
grdWorkout.Data Keys[grdWorkout.Sele ctedIndex].Value.ToString ();

The datakeys collection holds keys relating to the records in the bound
control. However, the framework does not explicitly guarantee that these
keys will available when you need them. There is only a reasonable
expectation that the keys will be available. You must test the collection
before you use it - test and load pattern.

This isn't a common occurrence, you will likely hit this every once in a
while and typically while the site is under heavy load. I suspect that this
is related to a locked collection in the framework at the moment of access
but that's just a wild guess based on similar occurrences with collections.

Alvin,

Perhaps that's it. But if so then I don't get how DataKeys could ever be
empty. In my GridView, DataKeyNames is equal to one of the bound fields (the
primary key). Since this normally works, I know it's spelled correctly, etc.

Can you imagine any scenario where this would result in an empty DataKeys
collection?

And if this isn't odd enough, the user at the time is clear that he didn't
get any error. I wish I could explain a couple of things I'm curretnly
seeing.

Thanks.
