• Visual Studio Local Variables invisible to debugger?

  Recently the VS2005 C# debugger has been exhibiting strange behaviour. Here is an example: private void Test() { double dd = 2.0 * 3.0; return; } Up until recently, I could set a breakpoint on the return statement and place the mouse over the "dd" variable to see its value. Also, I could open the "Locals" window and see "dd". All of a sudden, the local variables are "invisible" to the debugger. Nothing shows up when I hover the mouse over ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS 2005 Crashes Frequently, esp. When Debugging

  Frequently when I am debugging in VS 2005, my whole IDE crashes. This happen reliably if I am debugging on a PDA/Smart Device and the PDA crashes. Admittedly, my program probably caused the PDA to crash because of something I did, but even if the PDA crashes, the IDE should not crash. It should be able to recover gracefully. Also, if I select a large block of memory in the memory debugger window and select copy, then the IDE crashes too. ...Show All

• Visual C++ \CLR Compilation woes!

  Iv compiled my current C++ project as \clr as i want to start putting in some specific C++\CLI code to serialize my MFC objects to .NET equivalents. The program crashes on startup, something to do with the stack frame being corrupted. My first concern is the program has ballooned in terms of the size of the executable image.

• Visual C# Save Binary file

  How do I save a binary file, eg. png, exe. code: byte [] buffer = new byte [255]; int start = readBinary.Read(buffer, 0, 255); while (start > 0) { writeBinary.Write(buffer); start = readBinary.Read(buffer, 0, 255); } That's because you didn't say it was a png, and so he's given you code that saves it as strings, with a new line at the end of each. You should use Environment.NewLin ...Show All

• Visual C++ Unit testing unmanaged code

  Over the last few years we've been writing an application that has a number of modules and DLL to make up the core product - most of the code is written in unmanaged C++ dlls, which use STL - the Wn32 Interface is all C++.NET though, which calls these DLLs.  This is done to give us the ability to use the core code under other OSes (eg, MacOSX).  Unfortunately, it looks like Microsoft are doing everything possible to make non-C++.n ...Show All
