Hi,
I'm getting this error intermitantly in a custom configuration section in my ASP.NET website.
From what I can see 0.175 is a valid string to be converted to a decimal! And most of the time it works, so why is it that about once a week for about half an hour I get this error? Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Ady -
System.InvalidCastException: Conversion from string "0.175" to type 'Decimal' is not valid.

Have a look

Hi radcaesar,
Although the poster does experience the same error, the resolution in the topic appears to indicate that there is a problem with the code.
When I catch the exception, I try the following code:
Dim dValue As Decimal = CDec("0.175")
And it still generates the same exception!
Thanks,
Ady
Hello Ady1
Did you ever get your issue resolved? I'm having the same problem. Simply
Dim strString As String = "0"
Both of the lines below generate the error Conversion from string "0" to type 'Long' is not valid
=============== =====
Dim lngLong As Long = strString
Dim lngLong As Long = CLng(strString)

I'm using C# to create an ASP .NET website backed by a MySQL database.
One of the things I do often on the site is populate a DataList by
binding it to a DataSet pulled from the database. However, I'm running
into a bit of a problem with a specific field type in the database.
It seems that fields of type TEXT (a kind of binary way of storing large
amounts of text) generate the error "Unknown Target Conversion Type"

HI,all
I have a class named CCC which have some members of std::string
type.
I declare a class pointer like this:
CCC* ccc = new CCC( xml_input );
then I send the ccc to another module with msg_queue.
then this lead to a error on win32 platform, but it's works well
on Redhat Linux 9.0.
what's the reason?

Hi all
I need a string type with only three possible values: let's say "A", "B",
"C".
In other words, I need something like enum but of string type:
enum MyStrings {
sA = "A",
sB = "B",
sC = "C"

Hi,
let's assume you want to nicely print the content of a list except for
one (or some)
individual item. You could do it like this:
t =
print("text: %s\nvalues: %i %i %i" % (t, t, t, t))
If there was a conversion type which simply ignores the corresponding
list item

Hi,
I'm passing a JSON-encoded string to json_decode() and am expecting
its output to be an object type, but am getting a string type instead.
How can I return an object?
In the docs, the following returns an object:
$json = '{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}';
var_dump(json_decode($json));

Seem to be having a bit of brainfreeze this evening.
Basically I'm reducing an array of prices like so:

Additionally I can't simply convert the string to a decimal as it would be
