It won't take no for an answer

Just found this:
private void trySave(ref clsWord objWord, string strFullPath, Format format) { try { objWord.save(strFullPath, format); } catch (InvalidOperationException ex) { if (ex != null) { trySave(ref objWord, strFullPath, format); } } }Quote William Edward Hickson[^]:

Yeah, but your version stops after three goes... :laugh:

For a moment I thought about that, but then I just gave up

What is the point of using ref?
objWordis not assigned any value. I guess, the author has never heard of reference types and value types, doesn't differentiate them and also is a former C++ developer. -
If an exception is generated, a variable, representing it, can NEVER be
null. And the checkex != null
just looks stupid.
-
Also, it will sound very upsetting for the author, but if the exception mentioned above is ever generated, he is about to face an infinite recursion, hence he will also face the full power of the
StackOverflowException.
Summarizing the above, I'd say he better work in McDonald's. To get a chance to become a manager :rolleyes:, that is a real chance to afford Ford Mustang GT... someday :-\ .

Lol. Btw, to add some background, I'm a contractor at a company that bought another company in the same business. A very successfull software came in the bundle (and of course they plan to merge its features into their own software), but little to no documentation came along and now people are having a hard time figuring bugs things out. It is BS at so many levels, indeed, but the other products make up for it.
