Re: How do I get the function and page name?

I'm not sure this will get you the line number you are looking for but here's a way:

Dim st As New StackTrace(ex) 'create a stacktrace from your exception
st.GetFrame(0).GetFileLineNumber() 'get the line number

Also, I don't think this would work in release mode since the line number (among other information) is retrieved from the debug symbols that are created only when in debug mode. Anyway, you can give it a shot.

hope that helps,
Imran.

For the function name, you could use:

Dim mb As System.Reflection.MethodBase = System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod()
Dim FunctionName As String = mb.Name

hope that helps,

That has information about getting the Web page name and such. Part of what I need. Still need to get the actual function I am in

This seems to work.

Dim d As String = Mid(ex.StackTrace.ToString, ex.StackTrace.LastIndexOf(vbNewLine) + 3, ex.StackTrace.Length)

Dim c As String = Mid(d, d.IndexOf(".") + 2, d.Length)

Dim LineNum As Integer = Mid(ex.StackTrace.ToString, ex.StackTrace.LastIndexOf(":") + 6, ex.StackTrace.Length) - 1

Dim FunctionName As String = Mid(c, c.IndexOf(".") + 2, c.IndexOf("()") - 7)

Am hoping for a more direct route.

Thanks

How do I programatically get the page name and function My code is running?

I use this code:
Catch ex As Exception

      Dim cookie As HttpCookie = New HttpCookie("Error")
      cookie.Value = ex.Message
      Response.Cookies.Add(cookie)

      Dim ThisPage As String = "SavingsTracker.aspx"
      Dim FunctionName As String = "GetUsersAgency"
      Dim URLString As String = "ErrorPopup.aspx?Page=" & ThisPage & "&Function=" & FunctionName
      Response.Redirect(URLString)

To capture errors during testing. I use it quite a few times and having to declare the function name and Page is tedious.
I write the error to a cookie because some times it is two lines and query strings no likey.

Can these values be gotten? Also what about line number? That would be excellant!!
