VB.NET GetObject() Problem
« on: July 30, 2010, 12:16:49 pm »

Hey guys... just upgraded to 15 last night.  I have always had it (since 12) tied into my home automation through simple VB.NET scripting.  Now, with 15, this is failing.  The function I use to grab the MC object is:

Code: [Select]
function chGetMCObj()
dim mcObj
On Error Resume Next
mcObj = GetObject(, "MediaJukebox Application")
If Err.Number = 429 Then
mcObj = CreateObject("MediaJukebox Application")
end if

return mcObj
end function

When I run this, I simply get the error (immediately following the execution of the GetObject statement, it doesn't make it into the "if" statement):

Quote
Deleting Variable, Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The steps I used to upgrade:
  • Installed 15 (got libraries converted, tested, etc)
  • Uninstalled 14
  • Rebooted
  • Reinstalled 15 (got the last.fm plugin not found error)
  • Rebooted

Everything in 15 is running along fine, but this call to GetObject is still failing.  Any ideas?

EDIT: Nevermind for now.  Something else is going on here... ran a test and was able to grab the object, however something is failing here.  Will need to do more testing.  I hadn't changing anything else on the system, except this upgrade, so there may be some other function in the script regarding MC that is actually failing.

DOAH.  It was something else that happened in my HA that just coincided with this upgrade.  Everything working along smoothly as before.

MODS.. feel free to delete this thread.  Thanks.
