• cynthiars Custom Build Rule "works" but makes project undeployable

  I am trying to use a Custom Build Rule to build assembler files, much as described by Jeff Abraham and I am kind of running into the same problem. The rules files only differ on the extension used and some quoting practicalities.

• ornorn2 Missing assembly information in converted project

  This is a rather weird 'bug'. We upgraded a VS2003 Pocket PC project to VS2005. The conversion process didn't change AssemblyInfo.cs and when we go into the new Assembly Information screen in the project properties we see the settings as we set it. When we change it in that property screen, it does change in AssemblyInfo and vice versa. But when we build the project and have a look at the properties of the executable there is no version info ...Show All
