.NET is Hell (subtitle: An error message from Microsoft)
-
I get an email whenever there's an error on my webapps. We recently initiated a service to do Red-Siren testing; e.g., testing for any security issues. Got an error message today. Of most interest, and danged funny at that, is the unedited, verbatim "Error Message" from Microsoft's lovely .NET Framework ...

Albeit a little late (going on 7+ years of .NET programming...), thanks for the warning Microsoft!

I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image. Stephen Hawking

I encountered one once that amused me so much I taped a screenshot of it on my office door. It consisted of nothing but an exclamation point icon and the two words: "Catastrophic Failure"
Well, it can't be clearer, Everything is wrong! time to run like a headless chicken! :laugh:

I once got an error message from a 3rd party component: "Don't know what to do" Seriously?!

This is easy. I am staring at (VB.NET): A call to PInvoke function 'exam123-DB!exam123.Exam123F::Sleep' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.

}I personally really hate the error GDI throws whenever anything goes wrong. "A generic error has occured in GDI+". Like, 'You don't say' much?

That's a perfectly reasonable error message:
- It's aimed at developers, so it can assume you'll know, or be able to find out, what managed, unmanaged and PInvoke mean;
- It tells you what's wrong; (your PInvoke method signature)
- It tells you where the problem is; (the import of exam123-DB!exam123.Exam123F::Sleep)
- It tells you how to fix it; (correct the signature)
It can't do much more for you, since unmanaged methods don't have enough metadata for the compiler to tell you what the correct signature should be.

Biggest error I ever seen is "Your Windows is successfully installed". Yes, it was MY fault. :))
Have you considered fixing yourself? ;P

Must have been written by a developer after checking his bank account ;)
