Here's the scenario:
We've purchased DTSearch search engine.
It ships with a .net api dll that we can add to our project.
Adding this DLL as a new reference, however, kills my project and spits out
a seemingly irrelevant error:
-------------------------------------------------------
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\userControls\cioPostingDisplay. ascx.vb(58) : error
BC30392: 'Catch' cannot catch type 'exception' because it is not
'System.Exception' or a class that inherits from 'System.Exception'.
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\userControls\staticContentDispl ay.ascx.vb(106) : error
BC30392: 'Catch' cannot catch type 'exception' because it is not
'System.Exception' or a class that inherits from 'System.Exception'.
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\userControls\staticContentDispl ay.ascx.vb(108) : error
BC30456: 'Message' is not a member of 'exception'.
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\userControls\staticContentDispl ay.ascx.vb(108) : error
BC30456: 'Source' is not a member of 'exception'.
-------------------------------------------------------
What are things that could possibly cause this? The vendor (rightfully so)
finds this behavior odd...as do I.
