• Visual C# Can't "save project as".

  I'm trying to do something pretty simple. I have a large, complex project. I want to save it under a new name, so that I can make changes to it (changes that I wouldn't want to risk screwing up my original project). I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this in the C# IDE. There seems to be no option. Saving it as a template isn't what I'm looking for. I want to duplicate the project so that the old version is safe, and there seems to be no way to do this. Tell me I'm missing something. "Save As" is anything but a basic operation when you're dealing with projects, and it's not at all obv ...Show All

• Visual Studio Will Not Jump To Source Code for Referenced DLL When Dubugging Project

  Using Visual Studio 2005. I have a simple project with two references added.  Both references are to DLLs that I have written.  They are in their own seperate projects. When debugging the main project the debugger will jump to the source code lines in one DLL but will not jump into the other DLL.  Both projects appear to be set up the same and I am pointing to the DLLS in the bin folders under the projects. The "Enable Just My Code" is UNchecked in the Debug / Options / Debugging Node / General list. Anyone have any idea why I can't jump to the source code   I never ran into this on VS 2003. Thanks, Nath ...Show All

• Visual C# Migration from .net to vs2005

  hello, Im writting test tools for different hardwares. I started with C# .net and everything seems to work normally. Then the company wants to migrate everything to 2005. So i opened my projects in 2005 and convert them. first of all i noticed that everything run slower (does 2005 mean better ). I have some cross threading issue but i turned the warning off with the system controls so it works like .net. And third thing which is the worst is that the program is not working with some hardware. I think the code is too slow for the hardware to respond correctly back. Is there any way to speed up the code. Im using VS2005 Professional edition. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Overriding the GetChangeSetsAndUpdateWorkItems target

  Hi, Is there any easy way to override this target We'd want to get a subset of the changesets and update the accompanying workitems, based on the Area field. For instance, for an Area A, we'd like to get the changesets that only contain workitems that are on that area. So all we want to do is to apply a filter on the changesets. However, if we override the target, we would have to write code for everything else, like updating the workitems with the "Fixed In" field etc. Regards, Thomas L Doesn't anyone have an answer for this One of the major things about Team Foundation is that it's supposed to be ...Show All

• Visual C++ Problem with Mixed Assembly and static initialization

  Dear all, I have been quering Google about this but haven't been able to find a solution hence my post here. I have two projects under Visual Studio .NET 2005: - Project1, a static, native, library with no CLR support. - Project2 a mixed (native+CLR) project which requires Project1 and includes a header from it. When I launch the executable produced from Project2, I get an assertion from _CrtIsValidHeapPointer() or a crash if I chose to ignore the assertion (as expected). The stack trace reveals that this happens for some reason after a global variable 'logger' in Project1 is being initialized. I've searched all around and the only refer ...Show All

• Visual C++ Version problem MSVCR80.dll

  Hello, I just downloaded VS C++ Express Edition, and tried to build a console application using command-line. When I start the app it does not find MSVCR80.DLL. I digged into the problem, and found out that my installation of VS is version 8.0.50727.42, but the header file crtassem.h says it is version 8.0.50608.0. The latter version number is entered into the manifest file when it is generated, and I actually don't have this version of the DLL. I cannot explain that. After VS I only installed the Platform SDK, and don't believe the file was overwritten. What is going on Gerd You have done too much digg ...Show All
