Wierd Error message.

Expand Post »
Ok occasionally I get the following error message on my site
System.String Substring(Int32, Int32)
Error: Length cannot be less than zero. Parameter name: length

here's the wierd part, I don't use that Substring function,
I use System.String Substring(Int32) whose only parameter is start.
So I am getting an error from a function that I am not calling saying that a parameter that I am not passing is less than zero.

Any ideas?

Cosmic rays? No, sorry, no clue! I just thought I'd respond so you know someone read and thought about your post.

Re: Wierd Error message.

I would have to see the function code. The function you are a not calling.

I am at a loss as well.

Re: Wierd Error message.
I would like to see stack trace and the corresponding source code with line numbers. Make sure .PDB file is latest.

I guess it is not easy to reproduce, otherwise debugger would have helped.

Re: Wierd Error message.
It is legal to use one or two integer parameters because these overloads exist in the library: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...substring.aspx

It's possible that there is another call somewhere else? as other have said, we need to see the stack trace :-)

Re: Wierd Error message.
This Method Give this error because the number is passed into the arg is negative so it's better to post the code to understand the problem

Re: Wierd Error message.
I really doubt they are going to post the source code for a problem that was posted almost four years ago.
