Not sure, but what I would do is grab the return value as an object, jump in the debugger, and see what you get. I mean, a VARIANT has, as it's claim to fame, it's ability to be many things. Perhaps you can cast the return type to the thing that it is, in this case. But, starting from object means you get something to look at, instead of a crash.

OK ,

SO if i getting back object - and the variant is actually a string array - i can do casting to Array object and by using TYPE of reflection i can know which type i have in the Array ?

I`m right ?

In the debugger, if you type the variable name, it will actually show you the type. So, just set a breakpoint the line after the object is set, and experiment in the debugger ( where you can try casts, etc, also )

Since you dont tell us anything about your app and dont show code, no. How could we?

Did you check your MouseDown handler ?
does your code contain Control.MouseButtons somewhere ?

Strange behavior of Double.IsPositiveInfinity [modified]

Stefan Troschuetz1-Aug-07 21:55

Stefan Troschuetz

1-Aug-07 21:55

Hello all,

I've posted this before in another thread[^] but I'm anxious to get some more opinions so I'm posting this again.
Consider the following small command line application:

class Program
{
	static void Main(string[] args)
	{
		NextDouble(Double.MinValue, Double.MaxValue);		
		Console.ReadLine();	
	}	
	
	public static void NextDouble(double minValue, double maxValue)	
	{		
		double range = maxValue - minValue;		
		if (double.IsPositiveInfinity(range))			
			Console.Out.WriteLine("NextDouble: Infinity");		
		else			
			Console.Out.WriteLine("NextDouble: Not infinity");		
		//Console.Out.WriteLine("NextDouble: " + range);	
	}
}

Looks very simple and should always print out "NextDouble: Infinity", but it does NOT.
If running the program in debug mode everything is fine.
If the program is run in release mode, it prints out "NextDouble: Not infinity"!!
If the program is run in release mode with the last line in NextDouble uncommented everything is fine again.

First I thought it may be some problem with code optimization that is by default activated for release build, but deactivating the code optimization has no influence on the result. I've furthermore taken a look at the IL code but could not see any obvious error that could explain the behavior.
In my previous thread I got two responses: One responder obeserved the same weird behavior and one does not i.e. the program always prints "NextDouble: Infinity" as expected.

Does anyone have an explaination or clue what is happening here?
Also, maybe some of you have the time to run the program in order to get some more observations.?

I'm looking forward to your input.

So what is the problem ??

And did you ever care to print out range (that is, if it ever goes wrong) ?

Error in my post: It should be: "If the program is run in release mode, it prints out "NextDouble: Not infinity"!!". I modified this.

Luc Pattyn wrote:

Yes I did. The last line in NextDouble prints out range (if uncommented of course). It always gives that range is positive infinity and as I said in this case the program works as expected.

Making a Form Always on Top

Richard Andrew x641-Aug-07 20:52

I set the TopMost property to true in the Load event, and I call BringToFront() in the Activate event.

But these things seem to have no effect. The form appears, but doesn't come to the front or stay in front.

The form Border Style is set to None, so it has no title bar or border.

Does that make a difference?

How do I cause a form to come in front of all other windows, and stay on top?
