Msgbox to asp client?

**Patrice** · Jul 21 '06, 09:25 AM

Re: Msgbox to asp client?

Keep in mind that the DLL runs server side so the message box is "shown"
server side (actually written in the log as it runs in a non interactive
context).

To show a message client side you have to send it to the browser in the
response (either as plain HTML or as a client side script that display this
in a message box).
The DLL could raise an exception to signal it has a problem.

In this particular case (looks like a technical error message), my personal
preference is rather to display a generic message to the user and to warn
the support team (after all the user won't be able to do anything else than
calling the support team if the DSN is not defined).

I have inherited a VB.NET dll that I am using from common asp.

My problem is to get the messages from the dll to the Ie client, I can see
the messages in the Eventlog on the IIS server so I know they are there, but
how do I get them to show in IE?

The original code was:
MsgBox("Kunne ikke finde databasenavn udfra den angivne DSN: " & DSN)
I tried to change that to:

Result = MessageBox.Show ("Kunne ikke finde databasenavn udfra den angivne
DSN: " & DSN, "Fejl", MessageBoxButto ns.OK, MessageBoxIcon. Error,
MessageBoxDefau ltButton.Button 1, MessageBoxOptio ns.DefaultDeskt opOnly,
False)

But they still dont show up on the client, so how do I do that?

Thanks

Re: Msgbox to asp client? - Separate kernel code from interfaces

In order to use the same code for winforms and webforms one must not
use directly controls (labels, progressbars, textboxes) or msgboxes.

You can define an abract messenger which issue messages (ex: statusmsg,
errormsg, logmsg, etc ).
Depending on the context (winforms/webforms) you will bind the events
(or delegates) of the messenger to controls (winforms) or
to some kind of web output (response, labels on web forms, etc.) ...

I find very convenient this kind of mechanism, as it allows to use the
same code for winforms or webforms.
It separates clearly the program logic from the GUIs.

So will I have to send the Response Object to my DLL and return it on error,
is that what you are saying?

Re: Msgbox to asp client? - Separate kernel code from interfaces

I do not use controls in my DLL, the idea with a messenger sounds
interestering, but my problem is that I am not very good in .NET, so can you
supply an example?

Re: Msgbox to asp client?

I did send Response to my sub - then I used

Response.Write "Some message"
Response.Flush

But I cannot seem to get anything through to my client (IE) - what do I do
wrong?

Re: Msgbox to asp client?

Betina,

The most easiest way for this is to create some labels on a panel that you
hide when don't need it.

One of the labels is your messagetext.

Re: Msgbox to asp client?

I have a DLL written in VB:NET that DLL am I using from pure asp, the VB:NET
DLL consists of a lot og subs and functions which I call from my asp page.

Re: Msgbox to asp client?

Betina,

Than it is obvious that you cannot use it to let it direct reach a webpage,
which it does not even know.

You can of course throw an error and let that be catched when you are
calling your DLL in a try and catch block. Than you can show the error in
the way I wrote.

I hope this helps,
