I have the Immediate window option available in my menu, but when I click it or do the keyboard shortcut, nothing happens. It's quite difficult to debug an application without an Immediate window.I've tried resetting my settings to general developer and all of the other suggestions I found on the web, but still, no immediate window shows up when I click it or do the keyboard shortcuts..

EDIT: I know that I can use DebuggerDisplay, but unfortunately it is very limited. The class in reality is quite complex and I need to have the possibility to define a logic in what I show during debugging, if possible.

I upgraded to VB2010 from VB2008 early this year and have been working on a Windows Service which I am now debugging. When I was using VB2008 in Windows XP SP3 I would put a Stop statement in the code and when execution got to it a dialog would open asking if I wanted to debug it using a development environment listed in a provided list. The list contained the VB2008 VS IDE which I selected which would in turn transfer me to the IDE in debug mode. I was very happy with this setup.
Now I am using VB2010 with Windows 7 and when the execution reaches the Stop statement the service just stops. It no longer offers the choice and ability to "jump" into the development environment via the dialog that I mentioned.[code]...
I'm developing a Windows Service in VB.NET 2008, but I feel like I'm going to have an aneurysm. To debug the service, I've added a 15 second wait to the initialization code, which gives me time to start the service and attach the .NET debugger before anything happens, so I can hit breakpoints and such. I really miss "integrated" debugging with this type of workaround, and testing seems to be a huge pain.
What's the best way to do "regular" debugging of a Windows Service that's in development? One option I'd considered was moving all of my logic to a DLL project, leaving only control logic in the service itself, and then creating a Forms project that essentially just had "start" and "stop" buttons on it, and called into the DLL to do everything else. This way, I can debug my code normally, and then just deploy the compiled service when the DLLs are ready.
I'm converting all of my Windows XP production applications to Windows 7 and I am having a couple of problems.
1: Whenever I get an error, on the XP machines, it breaks execution and stops on the line of code with the problem. In Windows 7, it just throws a generic exception and I have no idea where the line of code with the error took place. Very frustrating.
2: In XP, I can edit changes on the fly while I am running code if I place breakpoints or follow along the code. If I try that in Windows 7, it says that's not allowed with 64 bit applications.

View 3 RepliesI'm writing a Windows Service:
Code:
Public Class Service1
Protected Overrides Sub OnStart(ByVal args() As String)
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break()
[Code].....
I've installed the service, I can run it with no errors but... I can't debug!
I thought that with the line System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break()
the service should stop and wait for my input. But NO!
I also tried to click on Tools > Attach process to debug but I can't see anything, just a gray background!
In the registry event it's written that the process started successfully, but the process doesn't show me the message box "Up and running"
I've just installed Visual Studio 2010 Express on a new laptop running Windows 7 64 bit.
When I debug a VB project and an error is encountered a message is sent to the immediate window, but execution is not halted. This means I am unable to look at variables etc.
I have a procedure that loops through the directories/subdirectories on a file server and sets the permissions. Procedure is called on a button click of a form.
I need to display on the form which directory is being processed. Similar to if we use the Debug.writeline which writes to the output in Visual Studio. I tried using a ListBox but it only displays the last one and only displays the last one once processing is done. I want to be able to display each directory name as it is being processed.
Psuedo code as follows:
For each dir in L drive
setPermissions(dir)
'display in ListBox dir name
lstProgress.Items.Add(dir.Name)
Next
A VB routine assembles a string of email addresses. It is sent to the clipboard with
Clipboard.Clear
Clipboard.SetText Atext
Where Atext is the address string The email client is opened with
lRet = ShellExecute(hWnd, "open", "Mailto:", vbNull, vbNull, SW_SHOWNORMAL)
At this point, when the email client is Outlook, the clipboard doesn't show what was added to the Windows clipboard above regardless of whether we use a left click in the BCC box or a CTRL-V.
Simple question that does not seem to be covered: If I use a lot of Debug.WriteLine statements in my code, will they be completely absent in my production version?
I mean: Is the compiler smart enough to not emit any code for those calls? Or would I have to surround them by #if DEBUG..#end if directives?
Had this matter on Xp machine and visual studio 2010 ultimate after windows update between december and january: even the simplest windows form program crash on start when starting for debug (inside Ide, F5) unless putting breakpoints on each line of the autogenerated (and marked as "debugger step thorugh") code.(see: [URL]) I was wondering if this matter affects only Xp machines, or if someone with Seven or Vista had same matter.
View 2 RepliesI want to start learning how to add menus to my vb.net projects. how to code and design them.
View 4 RepliesThe situation is that I have a menu strip on the form from which the user can select an item, which opens a sub-menu, which opens another sub-menu which contains a combo box listing some options.
Eg. File>Project>Load>combo-box control
When the item is selected in the combo box, the code executes and modifies values on the same form, but the menu system does not collapse by itself.
I have to click on the form and then the menu system collapses.
I tried setting the focus to the form, but that does not collapse the menu system.
Does anyone know how to get the menus to collapse automatically?
I was wondering if ToolStripMenus and ContextMenus support icons? (e.g having an icon next to the text), please tell me that they do because I cant find any property like that and if they don't that's a real shame :)

All of my pages are built dynamically in code behind pages (I think thats the correct terminology (?), I load a series on HTML files then builld the page).
I want to use drop down menu (which will be in my header file). I tried this one: [URL]
When building the menu in frontpage in the html file it was perfect. So I added the ref to the css file in my aspx page but rather than allowing for the drop down option is just displayed all options (although the formatting remains as per the stylesheet).
Is there a script or a well known method out there for HTML drop down menus that will work when loaded into an aspx page?
I have a problem and that is related to Menus in VB.NET.

I need to activate only these menus.
