Hi all,
This one really has me and the other .Net developers at my work
stumped. I have an application that is doing the following:
1 - attempt to validate that user can create a windows task via COM
interops
2 - an exception is thrown because user doesn't exist
3 - Exception is caught by calling code shown below:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
START CODE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
try
{
Task t;
ScheduledTasks st = new ScheduledTasks( );
t = st.CreateTask(" temp63846");
t.ApplicationNa me = "c:\\nothing.ex e";
t.Flags = TaskFlags.RunOn lyIfLoggedOn;
t.SetAccountInf ormation(UserNa meTextBox.Text, PasswordTextBox .Text);
t.Flags = TaskFlags.Syste mRequired;
t.Priority = System.Diagnost ics.ProcessPrio rityClass.High;
DateTime l_ExecTime = DateTime.Now.Ad dDays(1);
t.Triggers.Add( new RunOnceTrigger( l_ExecTime));
t.Save();
st.DeleteTask(" temp63846");
return true;
}
catch (UnauthorizedAc cessException e)
{
// Credentials aren't valid
// TODO: Add code to delete task if it was created
string l_Error = string.Format(" The password is incorrect or the
account you specified is either not a valid account or does not have
permissions to run the Windows Task Manager task. Please specify an
account with permissions to run the Windows task. Error: {0}",
e.Message);
Logger.LogError (l_Error);
return false;
}
catch (COMException e)
{
string l_Error = string.Format(" Error: An exception was thrown while
trying to validate the user. Exception: '{0}'", e.Message);
Logger.LogError (l_Error);
throw;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
string l_Error = string.Format(" Error: An exception was thrown while
trying to validate the user. Exception: '{0}'", e.Message);
Logger.LogError (l_Error);
throw;
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
END CODE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - Exception is thrown further up the stack to try\catch block that
writes out error to user. Code is shown below:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
START CODE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
try
{
Logger.LogHigh( "Calling ", l_CurrentPage.P ageTitle, " page's
ShowDialog()");
l_CurrentPage.S howDialog();
}
catch (System.Runtime .InteropService s.COMException e)
{
string l_Error = string.Format(" An exception was thrown during
execution of the page '{0}'. Exception: {1}", l_CurrentPage.P ageTitle,
e.Message);
Logger.LogError (l_Error);
System.Windows. Forms.MessageBo x.Show(l_Error, "Initializa tion error",
System.Windows. Forms.MessageBo xButtons.OK,
System.Windows. Forms.MessageBo xIcon.Error);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
string l_Error = string.Format(" An exception was thrown during
execution of the page '{0}'. Exception: {1}", l_CurrentPage.P ageTitle,
e.Message);
Logger.LogError (l_Error);
System.Windows. Forms.MessageBo x.Show(l_Error, "Initializa tion error",
System.Windows. Forms.MessageBo xButtons.OK,
System.Windows. Forms.MessageBo xIcon.Error);
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
END CODE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you run the code from the debugger in either Debug or Release
configuration everything works as expected and the user gets an error
box letting them know that the user could not be found. If you run the
code by double clicking on the executable or launching it from another
process then the exception isn't caught the second time and you get an
unhandled exception dialog complete with a details button for stack
trace. As you all know, it's not a very nice way to present an error to
an end user so this needs to be changed. I have tried all day to figure
out what the problem here is and can't get the exception to be caught
on in the second block.
Any ideas on how to make this work would be greatly appreciated,
Ryan

You might try adding handlers for
AppDomain.Curre ntDomain.Unhand ledException
Application.Thr eadException
don't guarantee that it will catch them but its somewhere to start.
hth,
Alan.
I tried implementing an AppDomain.Curre ntDomain.Unhand ledException
event handler with the following code and I am still getting unhandled
exceptions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
START CODE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
END CODE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
static void Main(string[] args)
{
AppDomain.Curre ntDomain.Unhand ledException += new
UnhandledExcept ionEventHandler (handler);
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
START CODE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
static void handler(object sender, UnhandledExcept ionEventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show ("Thankyou Jesus!");
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------
END CODE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------*--------------------------------------------------------

Hi.
I have read several articles recommending avoid to raise exceptions when
possible, since exceptions are expensive to the system. Removing code from
Try... Catch blocks can help performance? The following 2 first lines of
code - I think - can't raise exceptions:
Try
Dim str As String
Dim intVar As Integer

Hi,
I was wondering what's the point of "finally" is in a try..catch..finally
block?
Isn't it the same to put the code that would be in the "finally" section
right after the try/catch block? (ie, forget the finally block and just end
the try/catch and put the code after the try/catch block).
Or does the "finally" construct add some additional functionality?

Variable scope doesn't make sense to me when it comes to Try Catch Finally.
Example: In order to close/dispose a db connection you have to dim the
connection outside of the Try Catch Finally block. But, I prefer to dim them
"on the fly" only if needed (save as much resources as possible). A little
further... I may wish to create a sqlcommand and datareader object ONLY if
certain conditions are met. But, if I want to clean these up in the...

I really like this function but have tried to slow down
on using it because I get a 1 second pause each time I
use it. I don't really understand why the computer has
to think for 1 second! Especially at 2.8 GZ and 1GB RAM.
The same pause happens on different situations: database
access Trys, Array access Trys. Hummm??

Another wish of mine. I wish there was a way in the Try Catch structure
to say if there wasn't an error to do something. Like an else
statement. Try Catch Else Finally.
Also because I understand Finally runs whether an error was caught or
not, I haven't found a use for finally yet.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
