web service hangs

Hi I have a web service that returns a custom class (i.e. not a builtin like
a string or int etc). This class has properties that are also custom
classes. What is happening is if any of these properties are set to null
(which is a legimate scenario in this case) then the service hangs right when
it returns the object. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks

Define "hangs". Is it taking 100% CPU, is it "just not returning", is it
timing out, or what?

Hi John thanks for the reply. What happens is as I step thru the code I see all the property accessors being hit. When one of the properties is null the cursor passes over it and nothing further happens. The CPU looks OK in the process manager, it was only at like 1 or 2%. It doesn't even timeout (unless I simpluy haven't waited long enough, about 3 mins). It just never returns.
Thanks again

Sorry, did you say which Visual Studio version you're running?

Try single-stepping through the code in the property accessor that fails.
Carefully note the values in the "Autos" window. In particular, there's a
null out there somewhere: what does the code do with the null? Perhaps it
tries to dereference it and an exception is thrown?

Thanks John, I'll try that right now. This is happening with VS2005 standard edition on 2003 server sp1.

Hello all. We have about 10 Window's services that we wrote in c#. We use them to process row's that we have queued up in various SQL tables. The services seem to hang at least once in any given 24 hour period. Once we reset the service, it goes about its processing business until the next time it hangs. We are wondering if the hanging problem is due to a load issue (too many windows services on a single machine), a code flaw, or an...

Hello, I'm experiencing a problem that I'm hoping someone might be able to shed some light on. I have an ASP.NET page on a Windows 2000 machine that makes web service calls to a .NET web service.

While the ASP.NET process is in this state, looking at the TCP connections, the TCP connection never shows up for...

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,...
