VB constructor problem

Hi.

I wrote a C++ server which loads a driver for a specific hardware device and loads some binary files to that device. This operation takes a few seconds(~10 seconds).
I also have a VB client which activates this server and actually initaiates this whole process in the server.

my code in VB is : Set pLock = New PXServerLib.Lock .

Problem: the VB client returns a 'runtime error 429' while server is still loading those files to the device.

Question: Is there a timeout for the constructor(Set) in VB? if yes , how can I control the timeout?

Thanks
Don

Try incrementing the OLE serve timeout by having this in your VB application startus:

VB Code:

App.OleServerBusyTimeout = 30000

you may try to break the process when encounter run time error:

VB Code:

Private Sub xxx()
on error goto errhandler:
   Set pLock = New PXServerLib.Lock 
   ... your code
   Exit Sub
 
errhandler:
set pLock = nothing
msgbox err & vbcrlf & error(err)
End sub

Wish it helps
