Creating Microsoft Application Exception Classes

[SS]

Hi All,

I am trying to create a simple DBException Class which I want to use in
different apps.

Here is what I am doing:

1. I Created a VB Class
Imports Microsoft.Appli cationBlocks.Ex ceptionManageme nt

Imports System.Data.Sql Client

Public Class DBExceptionPubl isher

Implements IExceptionPubli sher

Private SQL_CONNECTION_ STRING As String = _

"User Id=sqamar;" & _

"Password=passw ord;" & _

"Server=trd-11982;" & _

"DataBase=NX20; "

Public Sub Publish(ByVal exception As System.Exceptio n, _

ByVal additionalInfo As System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction,
_

ByVal configSettings As System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction)
_

Implements
Microsoft.Appli cationBlocks.Ex ceptionManageme nt.IExceptionPu blisher.Publish

Dim strConn As String = SQL_CONNECTION_ STRING

Dim scnnFTTP As New SqlConnection(s trConn)

Dim scmd As New SqlCommand("spT estTable", scnnFTTP)

Try

scnnFTTP.Open()

scmd.CommandTyp e = CommandType.Sto redProcedure

With scmd.Parameters

..Add(New SqlParameter("@ paramin", SqlDbType.VarCh ar)).Value = "Hello String"

End With

Dim myReader As SqlDataReader = scmd.ExecuteRea der()

Catch expSQL As SqlException

MessageBox.Show (expSQL.Message ())

End Try

End Sub

End Class

2. Created a app.config file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<configuratio n>

<configSections >

<section name="exception Management"
type="Microsoft .ApplicationBlo cks.ExceptionMa nagement.Except ionManagerSecti o
nHandler,Micros oft.Application Blocks.Exceptio nManagement" />

</configSections>

<exceptionManag ement mode="on">

<publisher assembly="VB_Ap p_Test" type="VB_App_Te st.DBExceptionP ublisher" />

</exceptionManage ment>

</configuration>

3. In my VB Form I did:

Try
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer

y = 0
x = 1 / y

Catch ex As Exception
ExceptionManage r.Publish(ex)
End Try

This works fine but when I create another project and reference this dll it
gives me an error:

Argument not specified for parameter 'additionalInfo ' of 'Public Overridable
NotOverridable Sub Publish(excepti on As System.Exceptio n, additionalInfo As
System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction, configSettings As
System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction)'.
C:\Documents and Settings\slqama r\My Documents\Visua l Studio
Projects\Except ionManagerTestA pp\Form1.vb(65) : Argument not specified for
parameter 'configSettings ' of 'Public Overridable NotOverridable Sub
Publish(excepti on As System.Exceptio n, additionalInfo As
System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction, configSettings As
System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction)'.

PLease can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thx
