wlx.ini Open Bug

Hi,

When you try to open a wlx.ini file in ConfGen, I have come across a bug when there is an ‘=’ with nothing the other side of it – causes an unhandled exception crash.

In my case, I had used ConfGen to create the file and used the ‘Change Admin Password’ field under Network -> Login.
The password hash it generated ended in an ‘=’ sign – to get the file to open you then have to either remove the ‘=’ (changing the password) or comment out the line.

The dialogue box gives you:

Length cannot be less than zero.

Parameter name: length.

The options are ‘Details’ (see below), ‘Continue’ and ‘Quit’.
Continue allows the program to run, but several fields appear to be unpopulated.

The error code is as follows:

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.



For example:











When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Hope this is of some help to people!
