Another same issue on "NullReferenceE xception" :-
I have an (exe) executable program created in VB.NET 2003 that calls to a
MFC DLL written in VC++.NET 2003. I always get an error msg
"NullReferenceE xception: Object Reference Not Set to an Instance of an
Object" when my exe calls the following codes:
in VB.NET
Declare Function test Lib "C:\Cyob\IOComm \Debug\IOComm.d ll" _
(ByVal a As Long, ByRef b As String) As Integer
Dim did As Integer
Dim ret As Integer
ret = test(PortHnd, did) //ERROR: Object Reference Not Set to an
Instance of an Object
in VC++.NET
extern "C" int APIENTRY test(HANDLE a, LPSTR b)
{
strcpy(b, "hello"); //ERROR: Object Reference Not Set to an
Instance of an Object
return 99;
}
Why is this happening? Any idea in solving such matter?
Thanks in Advance

Sorry, the "Dim did as Integer" should be "Dim did as String"
I believe is DataType issue from VC++.NET (LPSTR) pass to VB.NET (String)
When I try to replace String with IntPtr, it doesn't give me error but the
return value for "did variable" is some numbers.
Plz help! TQ

Michael,
It looks like you haven't allocated memory to copy the
"hello" to in your strcpy call.
Try putting
b = new CHAR[strlen("hello") + 1];
before your call to strcpy.

There is a function stricmp that compares two strings without case

We have strstr that searches for a substring, taking case into account.
Is there a function stristr? If not, how to write one?

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.
