So when I make changes to my form in VS2010 professional (writing in VB.net) and hit debug, the instance of my form that pops up doesn't include the changes i make. I have to hit Rebuild Application everytime before I run the debugger and its extremely frustrating. I reset all settings and nothing seems to work.
Im developing several applications under Visual Studio, and now have a real nightmare in hands. When i start to debug, VS hangs completely. Windows allows me to start task admin, and close the "devenv" process.I have serious problems here. I need to deliver my projects before the deadline!
Win 7 Pro 32 bits, VS 2010 SP1, running on HP computer based on Intel i5, 4gb ram. everything works as intended, except VS. When debug crashes, the devenv process uses about 25% of CPU and 250~400Mb of ram.
I have an app I'm developing using vb/vs2010. It's an x86 app running on a 64 bit machine. It hangs when I run it in the debugger or the debug exe. When I run the Release exe, it runs fine. System memory doesn't seem to be a problem. I show 1.8 gig free after I load the Release version. I show a similar number when the debug is hanging. Just to make it all really mystifying, the debug version works if I step through it a line at a time.
I was woking on a windows app today when my errors were no longer being displayed as they usually would, instead the debugger just jumps out of the method. It works in other projects, I have put this: 'Dim i as Integer = "A"' in as my first line to try and raise an error but it just exits the sub on that line.
The output window makes a note of the exception but the usual popup trace does not appear, any ideas how I get it back??
I'm running VS2010 4.0.30319 SP1. My WPF project runs once in the debugger, then won't run again unless I wait 30-60 seconds. I've found that in Task Manager, there is an associated vshost32.exe process that starts when I first load the project. It remainswhile the project is running, but exits when I close my app. After 30-60 seconds, the vshost32.exe reappears and I'm able to restart my app. But until vshost32.exe reappears, my app will not run.
This is kind of an off-the-wall question but does anyone know if VS 2010 has somekind of utility that will allow you to just drag & drop controls onto a form or something that will help in visual design. I'm just talking for visual purposes only. No code-behind files or anything...almost like a canvas where you can place controls and labels, etc.
I am wanting to make a tool where I can load up a previously coded project and then add error reporting to each sub/function.My problem is this: When I open up some forms, the layout is not as desired. Here is an example:The sub header: "Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click" is extended over two lines... (when opened up as text) is it possible in VB settings to change this to be only on one line? Or is there a 'word wrap' feature I can use when viewing text?
The Window Layout setting seems to have gone away in VS 2010. I'd rather my environment default to Multiple Documents. I really can't stand Tabbed. Tabs are good for browsers and cell phones, but not so good for a programming IDE.
I am working on a University project, and I am trying to customize the design (background color, foreground color, border style) of the TABS in a Tabbed Layout, but I can't seem to find these properties in the properties windows.
I am currently working on creating a web browser. I have chosen to use multiple layout engines. I found this MDI Tab Control, and thought that it would make this task easier to accomplish and be useful in other aspects of my project. I am at a pause. I have a menu strip with an engine item, and within that I have Layoutengine1 and Layoutengine2. I want it so that when someone is browsing the web using Layoutengine1, and they want to switch to Layoutengine2, that all they have to do is click the Layoutengine2 button and all the tabs that they currently have open would be using Layoutengine2 instead of the previous Layoutengine1.
i want to write a code that user can drag and drop an icon to layout which this layout become consist of coordinate (x,y) and when icon was dropped to layout by right click appear a menu.
Whether I am using VB 2008 Express or VS 2010 Beta 1 Visual Basic, I get the same error: "Debugging information for 'EXCEL.EXE" cannot be found or does not match. Cannot find or open the PDB file" I have filled in the Debug Tab information: Start external program: C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12Excel.exe
When a custom class overrides the ToString() method, the C# IDE uses this function to display the class in the debug mode(tooltips, watcher etc) Does the VB.NET the same? I have impression that overriding ToString() method does change nothing. I mean, in the watcher I see Name myBusinessObjectInsnace Value {MyNamespace.myBusinessObjectInsnaceType}
where the VS debugger refuses to show certain field types including dates.My call stack contains FunctionA which calls FunctionB. FunctionB has about 45 parameters and many of them are dates.When I step into functionA,
1. the debugger refuses to show a date variable when you hold the mouse over it. It just shows {Date} instead of a value
2. If you do quick watch on that same variable, it also just shows {Date} instead of a value
3. If I do ?variablename in the immediate window, I get "System Error &H80131c23&"
When I comment out the call to functionB, the date variables all show correctly in all the above methods. I will stress that the code has not yet reached functionB, just its very existence in code screws up the debugger.I'm thinking this is a memory issue and maybe vs debugger can't cope with a huge function stack frame dataspace.devenv is only using 268Meg of ram on a 2Meg box, with not much else running. Thats reasonable for this size of project.
I've been given an old VB.net 1.1, Visual Studio 2003, project.When debugging DateTime shows as #09:34:00 AM#, the date-part is hidden. I would like to see which date the DateTime is.I've tried to modify mcee_cs.dat, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum but I'm trying to debug a Web Page using the IE9 Debugger. When I click on the "Start Debugging" button, I get the error msg?
We are designing a toolbar to be used in PowerShape that was originally written in VB6. We are beginning the conversion to VB.net and for some reason, when we size the new form that is the actual toolbar, we can see the size change in Design Mode but when we run the debugger it does NOT show the newly sized form. We managed to get the Width to update after clearing the Debug and Release directories but not the Height... And even then it only works once then we have to go back in and clear the directories again in order for the width to update.
Am experiencing a confusing situation where the debugging seems to skip arbitrary sections of code (including breakpoints) and then breaks on non-breakpointed lines. The call stack reports [External Code] even though its not external code
I have a vb.net application that I compiled and all, I took the EXe and all and placed it on another pc that has only visual studio express on it.
When I open my .exe I get a message saying No debugger has been found, no Jit Debugger has been specified I can either select retry to find a debugger or click on cancel to forget about the debugger.
If I press cancel, my application launches correctly without any problem.
I have a program, I have published it, and I have been actually using it in my PC. Whenever it encounters an error, the JIT debugger comes out. How do I prevent it from popping up using try...catch blocks, or is there any other ways or code on how to do this?
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '''system time'''.this is the error that appears
this is my code:
Dim sqlCmd As String Dim x As Date x = Format(Now(), "General Date")
[code].....
the fields in the tables are all text fields.is there any way to fix this error? perhaps it is in my query but i really cant find a solution.is there an alternative to get what i want my program to do?it is basically entering an ID number and finding the record with the same idnumber and putting the system time on the timein field for that record.
When I push debug with the project I have open, it launches a previous version of the website. It keeps loading the files from somewhere else, and I can't figure out why this is happening. I'm debugging with VS2008 and my application uses VB.net code as well as asp.net coding.This is the "Default.aspx" page that it's loading (in a screenshot from debugging)(look at first image)This is what the Default.aspx page REALLY looks like in the project, and what it's supposed to look like: (look at second image)
I've got a VB2008 Form app and I'm trying to handle all my UI exceptions in a single method that handles the Application.ThreadException event. When I build a version and run it, this handler appears to be working fine. However, in debug mode, when an exception occurs the debuggernow halts on the exception and won't progress even if I hit F5. I want it to progress onwards and let the handler do its work. That's what it used to do, though I realize the difference is now there isn't a Catch block anymore. Any way to make the debugger keep going? It's making me nervous thinking perhaps things aren't set up right.
A VS 2005 VB.net forms app has suddenly started misbehaving. When I debug the debugger is jumping all over because the code is not matching. I have tried to clean both the solution and the project and rebuilding everything. I've checked I'm in debug mode. I've checked the debug settings to ensure that "require files to match..." is ticked. I also deleted all the temporary files form the solution. I even tried renaming the code file and class name of the problem file but without success. What else can I try?
I just recently had to rebuild my development environment from scratch. I've noticed that when I'm in debugging mode and I have a breakpoint set on a Procedure or Function, instead of stepping into that P or F, it just executes it without actually stepping thru the code. What do I need to change in my "Tools" and "Options" area?
