Catching Exceptions from Global Objects before main()

I am integrating some legacy VC++ 6.0 classes into a managed C++.NET Windows service. After I had the basic framework in place and running, I added in the source files I needed and tried to run the service. Unfortunately, now when I run the service, I get a System.Executio nEngineExceptio n unhandled exception. I suspect that one of the global variables/objects is causing the problem. I've been unable to find a way to trap the unhandled exception so I can look at the stack trace and find the problem. Since global variables/objects are created an initialized before main(), I don't have a chance to install an unhandled exception handler. I've tried using set_unexpected( ) and set_terminate() , but they don't get call. I'm guessing these aren't compatable with .NET. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone, Is there anyway to create some sort of catch-all in windows forms applications that could ensure that no unexpected exceptions bring down an application? For example, perhaps there is an event that you can watch for whenever an exception is thrown? If this isnt possible can anyone suggest the best way to handle unforeseen exceptions? I'm assuming that surrounding huge chunks of application code in try catch blocks would be...

Hi, I've developped a Window Form C# application which main form contains several activex controls. No problems most of the time but on some machine, the application crashes when the main form is closed with a NullReferenceException caused by the DisposeAxControl which, i guess, is supposed to dispose one of my ActiveX. This is not a big problem as the application is closing anyway but i'd like to suppress this crash message. However,...

Hi, I'm getting into the Trace-functionality in .NET, using it to provide some much-needed logging across dlls in the project we're working on. However, being a newbie, I'm wondering if some more experienced loggers can provide me with some ideas as to how to log in a simple yet flexible manner. For instance, I'd like the code to be as uncluttered as possible by Trace statements. As an example of basic logging functionality, I've come...

Hi, I am working with a program that someone else wrote. This program is full of bugs and unhandled exceptions are thrown all over the code. Instead of trying to catch the exception at each point it is thrown, I am wondering if it is possible to catch all exceptions at a top level. I tried the following but it does not work. Does anyone have any ideas about how this can be achieved?

I built a generic exception handler form which allows the user to get information from it, print it, email it, etc. for exceptions for which I explicitly didn't handle in code, such as missing permissions on a stored procedure, etc. I use this exception handler in all of my applications and it can be called as simply as follows try ... catch ex as sqlexception ExceptionHandler(ex, otherData1, otherData2)

Hi all, I'm having a problem creating a global exception handler in a windows service that I'm making. Another poster suggested that the way to do this was to use the CurrentDomain.UnhandledException event to catch and deal with any exception that crops up. The problem is, when I try and deliberately throw an exception in my services OnStart event handler, nothing seems to happen. By that I mean, the CurrentDomain_UnhandledException...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
