  Can anyone reproduce this with a simple test project I've tried with a wizard generated VC6.0 project and converted, and edit-and-continue worked fine in VC 2005. If so please upload it somewhere,

  Ted.

  I am able to reproduce this problem by creating and running a simple wizard generated mfc app on a mapped drive. This is the error when I try to apply a code change:

  -------- Edit and Continue build started --------

  Project : error PRJ0046 : Could not spawn command line because the one specified was empty.

  --------------------- Done ----------------------

   If I load the solution from the original location, not the mapped drive, edit and continue works fine.

  The bug item has been updated - not sure why they can't reproduce this problem - can anyone here NOT reproduce this I can reproduce this on a clean XP machine following the instructions I gave in the comments in the bug item link mentioned above. Can some more people post comments on this bug if they can reproduce

  Thanks

  Hi Ayman,

  in a short word, YES.

  Maybe a little more info. We write AddOns for AutoCAD, so we start AutoCAD with the debugger, but that is no debug version. Our programs are *.DLL (but in ACAD named *.ARX and *.DBX) which are dynamically loaded at runtime. Maybe that has an effect

  Every single project we've converted from VS2002 (you know the _really_ buggy one) get's this.

  -------- Edit and Continue build started --------

  Project : error PRJ0046 : Could not spawn command line because the one specified was empty.

  --------------------- Done ----------------------

  P.S. Side-by-side Assemblies, manifests and deployment projects was not a welcome addition for us either. What used to be so simple just got a lot more complicated.

  Hello, has there been any resolution of this problem. I see it also on a project converted from VC6.0 -- thanks -- Keith

  Hi,

  we use templates, but not more than the version, which is compiled under VC7.0

  In Output window I get the following message:

  -------- Edit and Continue build started --------

  Project : error PRJ0046 : Could not spawn command line because the one specified was empty.

  --------------------- Done ----------------------

  I see the same thing. I had my project on a mapped drive earlier and was not able to do edit and continue. Moved it later to a non-mapped drive and it worked. Did not realize at the time that it was the drive mapping that was causing the problem.

  I just tried it and you're absolutely correct, this happened for me too.  Edit and continue does not work on a project located on a mapped drive. 

  I noticed someone reported it at

  http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback/viewfeedback.aspx feedbackid=45ca7443-d237-436e-a1a9-d19fa5f12d18

  I'll update it with more information.

  Try to get them to make a hotfix for it, so then it will be more likely that it will get included in SP1.

  Are there any outputs in the build window I have problems when a lot of templating is used in a source file. In this situations sometime edit&continue don't work but I get some messages in the build window.
