• .NET Development Access Violation when doing BeginReceive on a UdpClient

  I'm attaching some code below which demonstrate my troubles. In short, I get an Access Violation thrown when doing BeginReceive after trying to Send() data to a port thats not listening (using UDP). My observations this far: Add a Sleep() between the Send() and BeginReceive(), and you get a SocketException thrown at BeginReceive() instead of the Access Violation Send to localhost, or a host on the same lan (or close, in terms of hops), and you get a SocketException Send to a box on the internet, on a port thats not being listened on, and it'll throw an Access Violation most (90%) of the times tried The Sleep() related obser ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Extending the build process using TFS Build

  Quick question for you all... If I wanted to extend then build process or change it to build a vb6 application using TFS Build server is it a matter of simply altering the TFSBuild.proj file that gets created.

• Visual Studio Request for features in next version of class designer

  Overall I think the class designer is wonderful but I have a couple of requests for the next version. It would be great if you could allow users to customize the behavior of the class designer in Tools-Options so: It would place association labels near the referencing class instead of the referenced class. Allow nested class types to be displayed outside containing classes with the ability to show the associations between the them. (The nested classes could be named "Containing.Contained") ...Show All

• .NET Development windbg/sos - !dumpheap/!dumpobj/!gcroot

  Is there any way to find the callstack that lead to allocated object in windbg/sos I can do !gcroot, but I would like to see the call stack that lead to the object allocation. Thanks for any pointers! Hi, Thanks for the links. You're right it would take more memory, but not huge amount. There is a tool called gflags.exe that comes with Debugging tools. It allows to specify stack backtrace for each heap allocation. Later in windbg I can query each memory block and see complete callstack that allocated that memory. It works fine in unmanaged world. I thought there is something like that in managed wor ...Show All
