Creating a test app to perfect some code before putting it in a production
app. Test app works perfectly, doesn't work at all in the production app.
Can't figure out why...

Without some more info it's hard to help but the usual culprits are 1)
connection strings 2) configuration files 3) assembly references 4) project
references of third party tools.

That's where System.Diagnost ics.Trace comes in really useful

Here's the breakdown...

I wrote a class to handle a TCPListener, respond to connection requests,
etc. Compiled it into a dll. Made a quick & dirty test app to test it.
Able to connect, exchange data, etc. I do this by generating events and the
test app catching the events and acting on them. All works great.

Go to the production app, create a reference to the dll, add the "imports"
statement to the app, do all the exact same calls and event handlers that I
did in the test app, but for some reason I'm not getting any events
generated. It's supposed to generate a "ConnectionRequ est" event when
there's a pending connection so I can accept the connection. Works fine in
test app...not getting an event fired in the production app. I've got to do
more digging before I get too specific. It's got to be something obvious
that I'm overlooking.

Frustrating data entry problem

by: John | last post by:

Hi I have a very frustrating problem. I had a perfectly working app with a sub form on a main form. I added a few fields in tables here and there and now I can not enter data on in the sub form for some of the main form records. The sub form simply does not accept any keys. Also the drop downs drop but when I click to select nothing happens and drop down list just remains dropped. What could be the reason for this? Driving me crazy.

"Declaration" vs. "Definition"

by: Kobu | last post by:

My question is about the use and meaning of the terms "declaration" and "definition" as it pertains to the C language. I've read sources that mix the two up when talking about such things as setting aside storage for an object, defining/declaring a struct, parts of a function, referencing an external variable in another module. sourcefile1.c ============== extern long globalfoo; /* declaration? */

code in InitializeComponent vanishes. Very frustrating

by: David Cho | last post by:

I've noticed that my code in InitializeComponent where I am linking event handlers to events vanishes from time to time. One of the things that triggers the disappearance is when I do something wrong the the aspx page, causing an "Error Creating Control" error. It's not always reproducible, but when I do that, some of the lines of code in InitializeComponent vanish without warning. Is this a "feature" from Microsoft? Is there a way to...

Not a question. Just didn't know where to put this montage. So realtek gave me a exe that will create a dump. The device refused saying that it only works with realtek. Like Duh!

Frustrating syntax problem

by: Sejoro | last post by:

At this point in life, I thought syntax wouldn't be a problem, but it is. I'm trying to write yet another school program, but keep getting compile errors in the main function when I try to pass an array of structs to any other function. The error is operand expected instead of ",", and at this point I've managed to get it down to one error. What am I doing wrong? I've tried everything.

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
