Could not evaluate expression
-
Are all thes eprojects in the same solution or are they seperate solutions?? Is everything compiled Debug?? Are you referencing the .DLL's in the other projects directly or are you referencing the projects themselves??

Dave KreskowiakThank you for the suggestions. The projects are separate solutions. They are all compiled debug, according to Build->Configuration Manager->Configuration . I reference the .dll's in the other projects directly (Solution Explorer->References->Browse to the .dll of the other project). It's possible that I am implementing a more C++-centric solution and that there is a more c# way that would make the project more stable, and I'd be open to that idea. It could also be that there's another setting somewhere in the project that got messed up...

what is
edfed = new Sec();
this Sec class do here? have you tried to put a break point in Sec class constructor and see whether it hits or not

When you reference the assemblies in your project, if they are in the same solution, it's a great idea to make sure that you have added them as project references, rather than browsing to the DLLs and selecting those. One thing I would check - do a clean on your solution (make sure you actually remove the bin directories as well), and then do a full rebuild - look to see if the pdb file for the cr5 assembly has been copied into the bin directory of the executing process.

Thanks Jibesh. The code you reference above is in the constructor of cr5 and edfed is the variable name and Sec is the class. In this example, I also have
Sec edfed = null;
in the variable declaration section above the constructor. I have also tried putting the whole thing above the constructor as a class variable:
Sec edfed = new Sec();
But I still see "could not evaluate expression" for edfed in cr5 class.

When you say it's better to add them as project references, could you clarify this? You're not talking about going to Solution Explorer->References->Browse to other solution dll?
In the References dialog you can pick what you want to set a reference to. That includes Browsing to a .DLL, a registered .NET assembly, or another project. The thing is that project needs to be part of the solution you're currently in. It would be better for you if you added these other .DLL projects to a single solution.

I'll throw you a bone... I've copied code into a C# program that introduced unprintable characters that wound up generating bizarre compiler errors. Delete the offending code and re-type it. P.S. I find your obfusticating of code snippets ... obfusticating (it's all been done before) ... unless you're worried about your "boss" seeing what you're posting.

CodeStash - Online Snippet Management | My blog | MoXAML PowerToys | Mole 2010 - debugging made easierThat was the best idea all day. I did a clean build in all of the projects/solutions and had a compiler error where it was complaining about a deleted method. I found an old exe file in my main program debug directory. It's date didn't match the dll and pdb files associated with it (this was for the cr5 class). Every time I cleaned and rebuilt it was re-copied into the directory. Finally, I added the class as a reference in my main program and another program, and it went away. I didn't think I would need to add cr5 as a reference in a class that wasn't using it, but the other solutions were called in the program (and putting the cr5 build files in it's directory), so I guess it needed it. Thanks!!!!

I'm glad you got there in the end. Good job.

BTW, my boss is quite aware that I ask questions on websites and approves of the changes I make. He knows that we have a very small user's group and I'm the only programmer (and there's only one other c# programmer), so understands when I need to ask other people's opinion. I'm sorry if the snippets don't encompass the entire project, but I've had people complain about the opposite. They complain when I show too much code and info. Luckily, I figured it out, and I'm all set.

You have been very helpful. Thank you so much for all of your help. Is there a way I can give you "credit" on this site for your help? I know on other sites I've voted people "up", but I'm not seeing that here.

Look in messages, not Q&A Questions. It's in there.
