.NET Error Object v2.0.3183

Softgroup .Net Error Object is a powerful display and reporting error handling solution for Microsoft Visual Studio 2005/2008. Run-time errors are an expensive fact of life both during development and following the release of software to customers. Errors take time to find and time to fix. Users soon become frustrated when software fails to function as expected without adequate warning. It is extremely important that you consider carefully how your application will handle and report errors. Designing and implementing an effective error handling strategy can accelerate development and significantly reduce development and support costs.

It is essential that all errors are correctly handled by your application. However, there is more to effective error handling than just placing an error trap in every procedure and displaying a simple message box whenever an error occurs.

Implementing an effective handling strategy ensures the following:

· Errors do not go undetected.
· Applications do not terminate abruptly without warning or explanation.
· Components are robust and predictable.
· After an error, application stability is restored.
