VS Frustration

Why oh why can I not edit and continue???

VS 2005 Pro.

Multi project solution.

All solutions set to debug. But I cannot edit the source when debugging.

Any ideas??

Thanks

Are you hoping to Edit and Continue into a project which is referenced as
an File rather than as a project?

If so this will not work

This is a solution that has worked correctly for a while but seems to have
lost its way.

All references are to projects not files.

Thanks

What /sort/ of Projects?

Edit & Continue /only/ works for a [limited] subset of project types.
If you have to attach to a running process (Windows Services, anything
web-by) then, AFAIK, you're out of luck; it just doesn't work.

Simple windows forms app. Like I said it has worked. Most likely some MS
service pack. I am on the anti-OS Vista which seems to have many more
things not working than working. And yes I have installed the VS Vista
service packs.

Thanks

If you go into the My Project window for your project and select the Debug
tab, are either of the "Enable unmanaged code debugging" or "Enable SQL
Server debugging" options checked? If so, uncheck them and try again.

Oh, and additionally, on the Compile tab, click the Advanced Compile Options
button and make sure that the Enable optimizations checkbox is unchecked.

Delete BIN and OBJ folders.
Clean the project and rebuild.

It might work.

Lloyd,

I am frustrated that there is Edit and continue in VB.Net again. I forget
forever that I have explicitly set the debug off now. I never have used it.
This is one of the things I like much more from C#.

Cor,

I have read your dislike of edit and continue but I was not soliciting
opinions just looking for help in fixing the problem with the solution. I
use it all the time and it returned because of user requests I would
imagine.

LLoyd,
I am now doing things one at a time to see when or if it fails. I
really wish that MS would after so many years get rid of the non resizable
dialogs they use (a pet peeve from windows 3 days)
That was my frustration for many years in VS, however after a communication
with the VB.team about that, it is changed in the VS versions after 2003.
Although they did a half job it is much better now. You can now resize the
dialog windows in Visual Studio, they only don't know yet that after there
should be grips on those dialogs, so you are not aware of that, maybe in the
2014 version.

By the way, this is my main frustration with Microsoft products in Office
and Vista. In Office there is a dialog box for languages; In countries
outside the USA like Holland, where normaly more than two languages this is
often used (It pops up even automaticly). That listbox is 2 lines high and
not resizable even the site bar his onreachable, you can only click on up
and down, this has been in all versions of Office even the newest.

As well has Vista a non resizable Start box, where maybe it is for English
suitable, for Dutch it is really a pain.

However I have in no way communication with Microsoft of these parts more
than you. The arrogance of those Microsoft parts for users outside the USA
is really terrible. I have stopped to use connect, I get only messages back
like "It is not seen as a major problem and will not be fixed".
