Public Sub WriteLog(Optional ByVal Exception As Exception)

[davida37]

Hello,

I have a sub which I need to be able to pass an exception.
Public Sub WriteLog(Optional ByVal Exception As Exception)

This Exception needs to be an optional input parameter. Optional parameters require a defualt value. If this is where I am having the problem.

I do not know how to give a default value for a Exception. If it was a string I would put:

Public Sub WriteLog(Optional ByVal Message As String = "")


Please help.

thanks
david

You could try Nothing

Public Sub WriteLog(Optional ByVal Exception As Exception = Nothing)

Hope this helps.
