    Return a copy of an array instead of a pointer for it's elements

    Just as a matter of interest, would this work for you? I am not suggesting whether this is "good" or "bad" practice, but it seems to answer your question. My "point" is that passing an Object Array by reference provides a way to return a variable number of parameters of indeterminate type. I...

    Question How To Handle This Exception

    @JohnH@ Almost every reference example on Microsoft's web site is like this, containing a simple "catch all" exception handler. Why would Microsoft write example code and supply it as "samples" when it flies in the face of their "advice" elsewhere? And if the developer budget is limited where...
