MapTool creates lots of exceptions

Vidar — Wed, 25 Jan 2023 13:46:57 GMT

I have a maptool where I just place a marker on a map. Nothing else, no other business logic.

The marker is placed fine, however - when you look at the debug the amount of exceptions thrown from ArcGIS.Dektop.Mapping.dll is concerning.

What is going on here, should this be happening?

Here is my simple code:

internal class FooTool : MapTool { private IDisposable _graphic = null; public FooTool() { IsSketchTool = true; SketchType = SketchGeometryType.Point; SketchOutputMode = SketchOutputMode.Map; } protected override async Task<bool> OnSketchCompleteAsync(ArcGIS.Core.Geometry.Geometry geometry) { try { MapPoint mapPoint = (MapPoint)geometry; await QueuedTask.Run(() => { var mapView = MapView.Active; //Show marker if (_graphic != null) { _graphic.Dispose(); } _graphic = mapView.AddOverlay(mapPoint, SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPointSymbol(ColorFactory.Instance.BlueRGB, 14, SimpleMarkerStyle.Pushpin).MakeSymbolReference()); }); } catch (ArgumentException ae) { ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework.Dialogs.MessageBox.Show(ae.Message, "Tool error"); } catch (Exception ex) { Log.Error(ex); } return true; } }

Hi,

I have copied your code and it works fine on ArcGIS Pro 3.0.3 and ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET 3.0.0.36057

What Visual Studio are you using? I am on:

Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2022 (64-bit) - Current
Version 17.4.3

I think problem is in project or solution configuration.

Where do you begin with this sort of stuff?! I did the migration process, but who knows if its done it 100% right. It would seem it hasn't ported cleanly. I really don't want to start remaking all over project again.

I have created new tool (with FooTool nam) in existing Esri community sample project (3.0), then copy/pasted your code inside existing FooTool class

No I don't mean that. I mean my actual project/add-in. Its huge from version 2.x of Pro. If I have to start a new addin project and copy in all the code and start again - thats a real pain in the backside!

I have solutions migrated from 2.x to 3.0, but I haven't issues like yours. Migration was painful to me too.

I have made all steps of migration documentation and repaired code changes.

Try to cleanup project. Check references of your project and etc.
