Readonly .c file when runnning VS2008

[Chris Freeman]

I'm sure I am missing something stupid. When I debug my VS2008 Asp.Net
project the .c file is locked and I can not edit it. I use to do this in
VS2005. Anyone have an idea what changed?

The default value for the "edit and continue" setting? Sounds like you
have "edit and continue" disabled.

That assumes that VS2008 supports "edit and continue" for C source files.
I have some vague recollection that VS used to support "edit and continue"
for C/C++ code, but later took that out. I know it's present again for
C#, but I've never bothered to verify whether it's back for C/C++ code too.

Thank you for the reply, but the same thing is happening in my .vb files as
well. I did check under debugger options and it is enabled. It shows a
lock pad on the .vb file so it is locking the file for some reason.
