"Find in files" doesn't work on Unix files


Hello,

I have a VC++ project which uses files located on my Unix account
Browsing (eg. go to Definition etc) works fine, however, if I use "Fin
in Files" it does not find any single instance of the string entered.
guess? it is a Windows (find)/Unix (grep) problem, but is there also
solution to it? That would be great.

Thanks,

Bar

This looks like a bug. What does filemon say about the IDE trying
to open these files? Does it try at all? Do the calls fail?

Thanks,

I'm trying to "html-ise" some text, where an empty line should be interpreted as a paragraph break. I thought that $text = str_replace("\n\n", "</p><p>", $text); would work, but that doesn't find anything to replace in my strings, and $text = str_replace("\n", "</p><p>", $text); gives me too many paragraphs, of course. As an example of what I want, this message should be divided into three

If i turn off this option, the problem goes away. I have other...

Hi guys, I often use the "Find" (aka CTRL-F) tool in "Visual Studio .net 2003 7.1 c++". I noticed that that dialog box does not go away when I perform a search (it stays on the screen). This is different from the behavior of VS6. I find this frusterating because a mouse click is required to close the window (I cannot ALT-TAB back to the find window to press ESC).

Hi, I'm not sure if I've broken my VS.NET installation or if there has always been a bug of some sort, but basically Find in Entire Solution (ctrl-shift-F) isn't finding strings in my solution's project files which I KNOW are there. For example, if I search for Page_Load (which is in many many files) it finds nothing.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
