• Visual C++ VS2005 unnecessary build for project

  In a solution, a particular project appears to Build for no reason which I can discover when I choose Build. Is there any way to determine why the IDE Builds a project, in other words why it is deciding that it needs to actually do anything when one chooses to Build Can a makefile be generated from within the IDE for a project or is there any way to get the IDE to show something which will lead me to discover why it is Building In this project the IDE will actually compile the source files, not just do the link, when it appears to be totally unnecessary. This does not happen all the time but intermittently. If I can understand what it is fin ...Show All

  Hi, Is there a way that I can read from certain lines, say, from line 3000 to line 3500 rather than reading from the beginning of the file or by using ReadToEnd Thanks.

• Visual Studio Capturing the events regarding switching between code /design view

  Hi again I have defined a custom Design view for my own Xml files, as in the VS SDK sample SampleDocViewEditor for Addin files. This sample provides immediate sinchronization between the 2 views thru the text buffers, but I want a solution similar to the VS Forms Designer, where synchronization (view drawing /code generation) happens when the views get focus or the tabs are selected. I tried to capture focus events on the design view with no success, althou I know this is not the best solution (kind of a Form.Activate event would be better, but I have no forms, only Controls on my views) How can I do this using the VS integration in the best ...Show All
