Hello,
System tray icon informs users that the apps is running in the background.
However, there are instances that the app might crash and after that the app
icon in the system tray is still displayed. It goes away when the mouse is
pointed over the icon.
I wonder if there is any way to force system tray refresh during the VB.NET
app crash?
I tried to add some code in the finalize but it didn't do anything. I think
that finalize was not even executed.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Tom

I think you might be out of luck on this one, as it would appear not
even Microsoft themselves have figured this out. Even today when
Outlook or some other MS app crashes it leaves it's system tray icon in
place until the mouse is passed over the icon. I think this is more of
an Operating System issue than an application issue.
Hope this helps,
Brian Swanson

You may want to write an external application that monitors your
application, removes the icon if your application crashes and restarts your
application.
A VB6 sample can be found here:

Notice that changes must be done in order to use this code in VB.NET.

Hi
I'm writing a commercial program which must be reliable. It has to do
some basic reading and writing to and from files on the hard disk,
and also to a floppy.
I have foreseen a potential problem. The program may crash
unexpectedly while writing to the file. If so, my program should
detect this during startup, and then (during startup) probably delete the
data added to the file and redo the writing operation.

I successfully made a system tray application.
When I do shut down the computer, how does the computer can instruct my
application to shut down?
For the moment, if I don't quit my application, system asks to kill an
unresponsive task before shut sown.
How does I make shut down run more correctly?
Thank you

I have pasted at the end of this message a small sample program I whipped up
to do some testing.
It's a form with a datagrid and two buttons. Each button clears the
dataTable that is the source of the dataGrid, and then adds five rows.
Button2 is the same as button1 just that it does this in a different thread
(I was testing if I was having some threading issues).
Anyway, it seems that the location of the call to dt.Rows.Clear()...

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.
Here is my compilation command:
