• Alakya VS 2005 Debugger does "run" instead of "step into"???

  I am debugging a Win32 native application written in C++ with VS 2005 Professional, and everything goes well, I can step through the code, step into (and step out of) functions, can see the values of the variables, etc. EXCEPT that at some specific function (in my code), when I press F11 to step into it, the debugger "runs" instead, as if I'd have pressed F5. This happens only with one function (so far), I can step into other functions without p ...Show All

• ksvasan Other diagrams?

  There are UML diagrams that are really only useful during planning, and become obsolete after that.  I have found robustness diagrams to be like this, although we can argue whether or not they even count as UML. Other diagrams, sequences in particular, I find to be essential tools that I simply can't live without.  I was using Borland Together with great success despite its numerous bugs, and non-existant support.  What I found wa ...Show All

• Mickey49 Question about line state stored after coloring a line

  I've been working on smart indenting and autoformatting (and a more efficient way to do brace matching) and was wondering if there's any way to access the state information that is stored for every line as it's colored I've looked through the members of Colorizer, Source, IVsTextBuffer, and IVsTextLines but it seems like the actual line state's themselves are stored as private members of Source or some hidden object. I've pondered storing a Dict ...Show All
