Hi,
I recently was at the MS dev days and some speaker mentioned that there is a
cool feature that allows edit/continue, so you can debug, edit and continue
without recompiling. But, this feature was only for VB, because the
development team thinks that c# developers aren't interested in such a
feature.
DUH! Offcourse we are, right?
So let's all post a message for microsoft that we also want a edit/continue
feature. They said they are listening at the voice of the developer
community.

Oh yeah! I am very interested in that. I have had to stop my application and
recompile many times due to that. I am used to doing that with VB and I
definitely miss that functionality.

Wow, what a neat idea!
Oh, wait, this is an *old* feature -- MSVC had it in v6.
It is beyond me why MS continually introduces features in a product, and then
all of a sudden the feature is gone in the next version.
Of course edit-and-continue is a valuable feature.

I completely agree. Going from VC6 (and VS.NET for unmanaged C++), both
which have edit and continue, to C# is really great for some types of
development, BUT the lack of edit and continue for C#.NET is a pain, because
making small changes to the application and retesting becomes a 10 minute
job (especially with the incredibly slow VS.NET debugger).

I'll add my vote.
Without E&C you have to:
1. Stop debugging.
2. Make your changes.
3. Compile.
4. Start up debugging.
5. Navigate through X screens to get back to where you were.
6. if(GotItRight){ return;}else{go to 1;}
With E&C:
1. Make your changes.
2. Set next statement to above the changes and keep going.
3. if(GotItRight){ return;}else{go to 1;}
I'd estimate that no E&C costs me on average 2-3 minutes per iteration
of the above algorithm, and that I perform 20-50 such iterations per
day. That's 40-150 minutes per day!

Does anybody know when these very old and extremely productive feature "Edit

really RAD - fixing while debugging in contrast to spend hours in debugging,
stopping execution, changing 3 lines, building code, debugging again ...
that's really old style programming. In vb I had edit and continue since I

Hi I've been using VS.NET for a while and have become frustrated. In VB6 I
could edit code during a debug session then continue.
Is there a way to accompish this in VS.NET? It seems odd that the feature
would have been removed.
Thanks,

I see the same tread after I search this topic in google, but none solutions

Has MS fixed this in VS 2005? Is is fixed in VS 2008?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
