IDE :: What Is "The Target "Rebuild" Does Not Exist In The Project"
Jul 6, 2009
When I am building a VB.NET project, it shows me this error:"The target "Rebuild" does not exist in the project.". I have never come across such problem. By the way, since I'm moving some projects from VS2008 to VS2010, I found in this project many references shows "System can't find the reference specifiled". In a mixed C++/CLI project, when I'm trying to add a reference, VS even shows a dialog telling that "Reference *** was not found on the reference search path.
I have an add-in that does operations to open projects in the current solution. Before I do any of those operation, I want to verify if I need to build the projects or now. Is there a way I can check if a project is out of date (Up-To-Date = True)?
I recently inherited a VB project for some maintenance. I've been making changes and testing in VS2008 using F5. It's been going well.I did a rebuild all and now it won't run. It displays a dialog saying something like "MSACAL.dll or some of its dependencies are missing." There are a number of INTEROP.....dll files in ..obj (I didn't look in ..in and am home for the weekend) but none in ..objDebug.
since I still use VB6 and the code is in VB8, I can't find the solution.The sub below is executed in a button's click event, and is supposed to save data to his database. It seems to work fine : you can add persons (in a separate form), and see them appear in the datagrid. You can stop the program, go back to the VB editor, and run it again (without rebuild), and the previously added persons will still be visible in the datagrid. But...If you add some persons, then go to the editor and force a rebuild (for example by adding more code), and than run the code again, the the previously added persons are gone (nomore visible in datagrid)!To me, it seems that the problem is to effectively update the database. I have searched on the internet about this topic, and I read that you must "set" the UpdateCommand.
When I make a change to a usercontrol, I get a warning message "You must rebuild your project for the changes to {class} to show up in any open designers."Is there a studio environment setting that will prevent me from ever seeing that message again? The Error List window popping up and stealing focus is really getting on my nerves, and sometimes it doesn't want to automatically re-hide.
I have been trying to build the "Testing a class lesson, but the Set as StartUp Project line in the Project menu does not exist! I have redone the entire project 7 times, always the same response! # different computers, all with registered versions of VB. Why does this problem persist?
I'm using visual studio express 2008, I wrote my code for a project and then when I tried to debug it I got a few errors but one main one that says this. Visual Studio cannot start debugging because the debug target "".exe is missing Please build the project and retry, or set the output path and assembly names appropriately to point at the correct location of the target assembly. Since this is my first time debugging a program with this particular instance of the program, I am in shock. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
I am learning Visual Basic Express 2008. When I follow step #5 below, the option Set as StartUp Project does not exist. How I can accomplish this. To create a test project for your class. Open the Persons project that you created in the previous lesson. If you did not save it, you will first have to go back to the previous lesson, Adding Methods to a Class, and complete the procedures.
On the File menu, point to Add, and then click New Project. On the Templates pane in the New Project dialog box, click Windows Forms Application. In the Name box, type PersonsTest and then click OK. A new Windows Forms project is added to Solution Explorer, and a new form appears.
In Solution Explorer, select the PersonsTest project, and then on the Project menu, click Set as StartUp Project. In the Solution Explorer, select the PersonsTest project, and then on the Project menu, click Add Reference. The Add Reference dialog box appears.
Click the Projects tab, and then select Persons and click OK. Double-click the form to open the Code Editor, and then enter the following declaration just under the line Public Class Form1.
I'm working on my first T4 code generation tool to add some Stored Procedure helper code to my project. I've created custom types (e.g. StoredProcedure and StoredProcedureParameter to help with my code generation and have included the assembly and namespace references in my code:
This allows me to use my custom types in my T4 template code. However, because my custom types exist in the same project as the T4 template code, I can't recompile my project once I run the template code without restarting Visual Studio. This isn't very much fun.
I read a great article that addresses this exact issue by using the T4 Toolbox, but it's not working. Either I'm implementing the VolatileAssembly directive wrong or the T4 toolbox simply didn't get installed. I'm not sure that the toolbox got installed correctly (I'm using VS 2010 on Win XP).
namespace of "system.runtime.caching" does not exist but in object explorer and microsof exist.i use microsoft visual studio 2010 and .net framework 4.0.i also cant use this name space(System.IO.MemoryMappedFiles & System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCache)
any body know what is the problem. i want my program after doing something (opening a file or any thing that can do something my program use more memory.)use memory like startup run.
I have Requests for VB(2005) very very important for my selly project!i need a button that determine if file exist and if that file exist then show a messagebox!and if not show messagebox!.
i am still new to VB, and need a little help. We have an application that runs on what I believe is VB2005. I am able to open the main .dll in VB2010, and can modify the forms, etc, and they will show the changes in the applications, but is there any way to change the current forms to the nicer looking forms in VB 2010? I guess I could just rebuild the entire .dll in the new version, but was hoping not to have to do that.
Using VB 2008 When I press the F5 or Start Debugging it does a rebuild even when I have made no changes since the last time. Where is the setting to tell it to only do a rebuild if there are changes?
I have a vb .net program on visual studio 2005. I modified my code for a bug fix. When I am rebuilding and running the application, it shows me the old version of my program, ie, the new changes are not taken effect. To test more, I changed a Label box text and tried to rebuild the program. The program shown me the screen with the old label text. The change was not affected. I tryed to save the application, close, reopen , unfortunately the same effect. Then I copied the project folder to my other laptop to see if visual studio had anything wrong. But then there also I am facing the same problem.
Here is the code Dim xR() As DataRow = xT.Select("TS='" & TS & "'") Dim qRow As DataRow If xR.Length = 1 Then qRow = xR(0) [Code] .....
Sometimes(not always) I get that internal index is corrupted. I read somewhere that frequent updates to in memory datatable, can produce error like that and that only real solution is to create dataview from time to time, and by doing that datatable rebuild it's indexes...is that for real....I have changed my code and now I'm creating dataview and disposing it right away...so far so good. but I was wandering is thatfact....does datatble rebuilds it's indexes when you create dataview...and if not when are they rebuild.
Anyone ever get fake compile errors and rebuild the program and then they go away? Well mine aren't going away and I can compile and run no problem. I've got something like 100 compile errors and the "run with error's" warning doesn't appear at any time and when I do run my program it runs just the way it should. However I still see like 100 errors.
I want to put a process in a SSIS package that will rebuild a solution. In that solution it creates a setup.exe that includes a sql server compact database that is updated by the SSIS package.
I am writing a custom control which is a textbox currency control. What is the best way if I make changes to my control to have my main project use the changed control?
VS2008 SP1, Winforms solution, VB.NET, compiling for x86 and .NET v2 I have about a dozen projects in the solution, with a couple of Windows forms projects and some class libraries. If I rebuild the solution, it clears out and recompiles all the projects, as you'd expect... and then disappears without trace or error message. Since I'm reconnecting to VSS 2005 over HTTP across the internet, it takes all month to start back up with everything loaded, so it's incredibly irritating. The compiled application itself works fine, and normal build and run after changes also works fine.
EDIT: Just to clarify, No add-ins except Refactor! (I know, I guess I ought to try uninstalling it to see if it's that, but it's just too useful! - I will see if there's an update though). And no custom build steps. It's just a vanilla Winforms app, with references between the projects (and some references to COM dlls for interop).
I changed config file of the windows many times. Before changing config file I stopped the service and after changing config file, started again. Every thing worked fine.
But last time when I made some changes in config file of the windows service and started it - It didnt worked, I even tried reinstalling the service but in vain.
As a last resort I rebuild the service with new config file and copied newly build files on the server and installed the service. To my surprise the Windows service worked perfectly this time.But I have only made changes to config file and the code of the windows service was untouched. My question is, do we need to rebuild the Window service if we change the config file many time?
I would like to get some advise from all of you. I created a program setup using standard procedure(adding new project.. setup and deployment, setup project). When I ran the setup and installed the program in computer, It's working. Then I decided to amend certain form in the program. I right click at solution"my program name" and click rebuild solution. then i try to run again the setup, there is nothing happen after that(It remain like before amendment). Did I miss anything here? I have never used this method before and this is my first time using it.
I have been working on a number of card games. Important, of course, is shuffling the deck.I have come up with a few different ways to do this. Currently I do not shuffle, but to deal a card, I lay out the deck in order, selecting a random number between 1 and the number of cards remaining and selecting that card. I then remove that card from the deck so that another card can be picked.There are two main ways to do this, and I am trying to figure out which one is optimal.The first is to have an array of cards. When one card is dealt, a new array is formed with that card missing. I kind of like keeping the array size exactly the size of the deck, but perhaps this is not efficient. So, the first array has length n and the new array after the card is dealt has length n-1. VB.Net makes it simple to change array sizes around like this.
At the moment, I'm writing tons of custom control, which all fits my needs. But the thing is, each time I Debug the project, it doesn't update the form designer at all, not even the code. My solution to this is to Rebuild the project, which can take time. This is very frustrating.
I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate to compile.
I am confused with the terms Build ,rebuild ,start , start without debugging in VS.NET.After writing the code what actually we want to do .We have to run directly by pressing F5 key or we have to build the solution .Usually i tried to run the application after coding and if shows any any errors i will fix that and run again .I never used build or rebuild thing .What exactly meant by building the solution .What is meant by rebuild and start without debugging.
