Ok, I already asked a question similar to this one but didn't found any
answer !
I've a solution with 2 projects in it. One of the project contains
Usercontrols and Inherited Controls. I work actively on both project,
changing the usercontrols and the second project (forms that uses the
usercontrols). When I build my solutuion, my user controls become available
in the Toolbox under "My user controls", with an icon of a user control, but
sometimes (often) event when I build the solution, the controls disappear
from the toolbox, I have to rebuild, open and exit the solution to make the
controls appear in the toolbox. Now you will tell me "Why don't you just do
Add/Remove item.. in the toolbox ?" That's what I tried, but the behaviour
seems different, the icon when I add a control like this is a little gear
(first difference), and I also can have 2 times the same control, one with
the little gear icon and the other with a usercontrol icon.
Someone can explain how this is working ? Maybe how references to
usercontrols works in .NET because we (our team) really don't know how to
work with this. Where can I find information about this ? Maybe it is just
an IDE problem.
Thanx

Hi Philippe,
This seems to be an IDE problem as I have also never been able to figure out
the logic that governs user control visibility on the toolbar. I've
eventually given up on relying on the IDE and always add user controls
myself. They indeed appear as little gears, unless you specify a custom
bitmap with the ToolboxBitmapAt tribute applied to a user control.

I added a project to my solution that contains a user control. Now I 'd like
to add the user control from that project to a form in my solution. The
problem is that the control doesn't gets added to the My User Control tab.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, Henke!

I've created library with some "user controls" and they all showed up in the
toolbox, so it is easy to drag them to a form in Forms Designer.
Now we want to use the controls in our main project which is located on another
computer. The problem is they don't show up in the toolbox.
What's wrong ?

I am having trouble adding some of my existing controls to my toolbox
in VS.NET. Here's what is going on:
1). I have an existing project that is a Windows Control Library with
a bunch of controls.
2). I start a new solution and create an Application
3). I add the existing project with my controls to the solution, then
create the reference.

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.
