DataLinkLayerComError NullReferenceException
« on: June 18, 2015, 09:15:25 AM »
e.ErrorId = -34
e.ErrorMessage = "Could not connect to 0.0.0.0, port 44818. Timed out"

It seems to stop throwing exceptions here after adding a line to the beginning of this sub (line 1401)
Code: [Select]
If e.ErrorId = -34 Then Exit Sub
Seems like more of a band-aid fix than anything, since I don't understand why it's trying to connect to 0.0.0.0...

I think that line of code should not have the "(0)" on it and appear like this:

        If Requests(e.TransactionNumber And 255) IsNot Nothing Then

So technically it should be this

        If Requests(e.TransactionNumber And 255) IsNot Nothing AndAlso Requests(e.TransactionNumber And 255).Count > 0 Then

I changed that line, and the Null Ref Exception moved to the OnComError sub instead...

It should be basically the same changes in that sub:

            If Requests(e.TransactionNumber And 255) IsNot Nothing AndAlso Requests(e.TransactionNumber And 255).Count > 0 Then
                Requests(e.TransactionNumber And 255)(0).Response = e
                waitHandle(e.TransactionNumber And 255).Set()
            End If
