<0> has anyone else ever done something as simple as executed a "tadoquery_variable.open" command and gotten a popup box at runtime which says "unspecified error" ???
<1> XenReborn: That's an ADO error which means "Crap, something's not quite right"
<2> "you probably forgot to initialize com"
<2> or something.
<1> So, start troubleshooting.
<0> Drk`Angel: like ???
<1> All sorts of stuff. Version mismatch between MDAC and ADO, something weird in the connection string, corrupted files.
<1> yadda yadda yadda
<0> Drk`Angel: I HAVE BEEN ! I checked the database itself, nothing that should be doing this, i set the parameters for all the other adoqueries in the same manner, executed the same sequence of statements, accessed the same adoconnection, everything is apparently the same syntactically correct and out of 11 datasources and 11 adoqueries this is the ONLY ONE which is causing trouble.
<1> Well, something's not right.
<0> the only thing that works is commenting out the code
<1> It is one of the most frustrating errors to troubleshoot.
<0> yeah you got that right buddy, so how do i troubleshoot it if it never gives me any information ?
<1> When you get that, it means "Go home and get blasted, work is gonna be fun for a few days"
<0> what do i need to look at though ?
<2> LGPL.



<2> Thats one of those persistently vague licenses.
<2> distribution wise this should not be any problem should it ?
<2> I really wish that javascript book I want was out.
<2> it's not due till april.
<0> Drk`Angel: i mean seriously it doesn't provide ANY data on whats wrong, do you know where i should start looking ?
<3> ki9a you might know this... there's a procedure in VCL that will give me a string of a value that belongs to a set, e.g. pixelformat of TBitmap, pf32bit etc... is there a way to get a string of a property/value/enum item
<0> anyone actually know how to solve an "unspecified error" dialog which arises as a result of an unknown generic exception relating to ado and microsoft access and tadoquery in delphi 2006 ???
<2> PixelFormat is an enum
<2> GetEnumNAme
<2> and GetEnaumValue
<2> gotta go.
<4> XenReborn: i had an ado error that just said "Catastrophic failure" once.. never got to the bottom of it
<4> if you find out, please say how you did it
<0> warjest: this is not ending, i'm gonna start migrating to our mysql database and see whether its just a ****ty micro$oft error
<4> you can't compare access/ms to mysql
<4> try mssql firstr
<4> i hate mysql
<0> i hate mssql
<0> mysql is comprehensive to me
<0> and when i get errors from it they make sense lol
<4> mysql data integrity is ****
<4> if it truncates data on an INSERT/UPDATE it doesn't bother to inform you
<4> it should kick back
<5> If you are switching around, consider posgresql.
<5> err postgresql
<1> "catastrophic error" means a ****up with com/activex.
<1> "unspecified error" is actually an ado error
<4> i laughed when it raised the exception, i took a screenshot of it somewhere
<1> "aieeee! *crash*"
<1> Actually managed to troubleshoot a few catastrophics when we were doing COM+ 3 tier
<1> pita.
<2> I like the errors we get sometimes
<2> in interop.
<2> AccessViolationException
<2> (in .net, that's rare)
<2> completely missing callstacks.
<6> ki9a, make some more cool WPF demos :)
<7> iligal to talk about cracked components here?
<1> Let's see, a channel full of sofware developers who make their living by selling software ... and you want to talk about cracked software?
<1> You should feel honored that you're not already banned.
<6> perhaps he was asking about how to prevent cracking? :P
<1> Benefit of the doubt is a good thing, yes.
<7> better to ask, some channels it's legal. But then i know now :)
<8> well at least he was semi-smart dumb***
<8> btw Finalbuilder takes the prize vs. AutomatedQA BuildStudio and Visual Build
<8> I highly recommend it
<2> any php experts here?
<2> I'm working with SoapClient
<2> __soapCall specifically.
<2> $res = $c->__soapCall("VerifyUser", array('VerifyUser' => $n));
<2> where $n is: $n->aUsername = $username;
<2> but for some reason unknown to me
<2> it always p***es the actual parameter
<2> as 'param0'
<2> not 'VerifyUser'
<9> lo
<2> great
<2> my questions always go unanswered :)
<8> ki9a: why would you be working with php?
<2> hacking mediawiki



<2> really don't feel like writing my own.
<8> ki9a: you've done asp.net before, right?
<2> of course.
<8> how do they compare? which do you prefer?
<2> asp.net
<2> for sure.
<2> comparing the power of php (a scripting language) with asp.net is not fair
<2> the only thing php has going for it
<2> is htat it's supported just about everywhere.
<8> I was curious, because I've never worked with php
<8> which reminds me. my company bought the asp.net controls from telerik a couple months, for me to start experimenting with
<8> just been so damn busy with other projects
<8> I was working like a slave on a .net project that was being rewritten to java
<8> that got canceled
<8> but I wasn't complaining
<8> however I now have a new respect for the Java language...
<8> but still no respect for Java programmers :)
<1> java made you its bitch, huh?
<8> Drk: not bad at all
<8> the netbeans ide made it very easy to transistion from vs.net
<8> the code translation was 95% similiar for cl*** libraries
<8> the GUI portion was the only slow part
<8> and that was because "out of the box" the swing controls had very little functionality
<8> compare to the commercial ones we use in .net
<8> but the translation was certianly doable.. infact Java will be a very feasble option when starting a new project... depending on the requirements
<2> java is scary.
<8> yes. but the netbeans ide abstracts most of that from the developer
<8> just within the last year or so
<2> next question.
<2> anyone good with javascript ?
<8> all the other major ide's ****ed compared to the latest release of netbeans
<8> no but you can use vs.net as a debugger
<2> firefox too
<2> if you want to.
<2> but thats also not my question :)
<2> I want to know if anyone here ever worked with XmlHTTPrequest
<10> ok i though lets leave diemen early
<10> so i left at 13:00
<10> and just arived home....
<10> long live NS
<2> heh
<10> 3 cm snow and 50% of the trains died :p
<10> well...
<10> i went from diemen to schiphol
<10> tere i sat in the train to enschede
<10> bu after 15 mins the told us i wouldnt go
<10> so i went to the train to amersfoort
<10> so we arived in hilversum..and stopped there cos there was an accident and it couldnt leave
<10> so i went to utrecht central station
<10> and waited 50 mins for the train to enschede
<10> god
<10> and i payed 35 euro for that
<2> you had fun today.
<10> well i got dungeon siege for the psp yesterday
<10> so i could keep myself entertained
<10> but brr those stations are pretty cold
<10> dutch railways, sigh
<11> anyone have a copy of israel kamakawiwo'ole's over the rainbow?
<11> can't find it on urge :(
<12> heh, http://www.shaveeverywhere.com/
<2> I wonder who designed javascript.
<2> must be the same guy that did TCL
<12> comparing those is quite a step
<12> however, the "cl***" model of js is quite horrible; yes
<12> in what other language is a function a cl***? :P
<13> mmm smaltalk maybe
<2> ootje: which I wanted to ask. can cl***es nested? :)
<12> Is that OS/2?? You're not supposed to run be running OS/2 yet, we're not finished evaluating it! RELAX, IT'S MICROSOFT WINDOWS 386!!!
<12> http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/software/the-most-ridiculous-windows-video-ever-234831.php
<12> weeeeell
<12> nested as in how?
<12> it's the whole arcane ".prototype." thing
<2> I guess if I wanna hide things
<2> I just have to name them funny.
