try
{
some code
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
some code
}

How can I loop with "forEach" statement through all exceptions ?

Hi,

Here is one example for SQLError

try
{
some code
}
catch(SqlException ex)
{
foreach(SqlError sqlError in ex.Errors)
{
some code
}
}

Sometimes you get more than one exeption at the same time ( especially SQL for example )

hi,
As was already mentioned, catch "catches" only one Exception. I think you are trying to do something like :

<br />
try<br />
{<br />
 //some code<br />
 if(stg)<br />
 {<br />
  myBadFunctionThrowsMySpecificExcpetion();<br />
 }<br />
 else<br />
 {<br />
  i= i/0; // throws another exception<br />
 }<br />
}<br />
catch(MySpecificException ex)<br />
{<br />
 // handle my specific exception<br />
}<br />
catch(Exception ex)<br />
{<br />
  // handle generic exception (in this case divide by zero)<br />
}<br />

When exception is raised in try block, it is catched in "closest" catch if throwed exception is (in meaning that operator is would return true - same type or derived class) the same as declared in catch block. If exception of diferent type is thrown, then it passes thru first catch block to another (if present),.. etc. You must write catch blocks from specific to most generic; if you wrote catch for System.Excpetion first, all exceptions would be handled in this block. No other would have chance to trap error.

I only hope this is answer to your question Smile | :)

You are close to the problem, but i want get all error messages from all risen errors there. In the last message I have wrote an example for SQL tasks. Here it works, because you can assign a specific error, so I think it shpuld be possible to loop within all possible errors ( I need the name for the element and elements-> foreach(element in elements))

how about:

try
{
   // something error prone
}
catch(Exception e)
{
   Exception ex = e;
   while(ex != null)
   {
       Console.WriteLine(ex)
       ex = ex.InnerException;
   }
}

Hi,

A question:

How can I create a popup with a textbox or a combobox in it?

e.g. in MS Access 2003 there is such a thing if you do
a right click on a table column to add a filter...

Thanks in advance!
Hornox

Don't know if the following will work, but maybe you'll give it a try.

Create a simple Form, which contains the TextBox, ComboBox or whatever you want.
Catch the MouseDown or MouseUp event of the controls ,which should open the popup form after a right-click on them, and determine whether the right button was clicked.
If so create an instance of your form, assign the mouse coordinates to the Location property of your form and show it.

Maybe try it the other way around. You have a "splash" type screen which is your main constructor. It can load fast as it is small. It fires off a thread that starts the loading of the main app which uses delegates or some such to report back on the loading progress.

Here is an article that may help you out; A Pretty Good Splash Screen in C#

You can use Application.Run more then once in an Application.

Try creating new splash form, pass it to Appication.Run method
then run your main form (Application.Run(new MainForm());)

When you need to close the splash screen just close the splashForm
(splashForm.BeginInvoke(new MethodInvoker(splashForm.Close));)

Custom Control problem

I have made a Custom Control and I'm having troubles in design time - I have omitted the Dispose method to the ABox in the code below.

Using the following code in design time (adding an ABox to a Form), i can change the MyComp.MyText property in the property editor and the Text property on my ABox will change.

But I can't change the MyComp.MyList property and make it change the ABox' Items values. It works in RunTime but not in design time.

How come?

Any and all ideas would be very welcome.

Hi,

Try calling the InValidate() method, even after you set the value in the property.ie,

In "public StringCollection MyList" and "public string MyText", in the set block , call Invalidate after u set the value to MyText.

Try this and let me know...

Look at your project properties to see what the pre-build event is (if you don't already know). Whatever it is (batch file, script, etc.) you can try running it separately, from a command prompt and proceed to debug it. The article refered to by spif2001 has a batch file, for example.

Additionally, if the script has any error output, you should be able to see it in Visual Studio's "output" window.

By the way, I think you get that message whenever the specified script returns a non-zero errorlevel.
