Visual Studio 2008 Debugger Is Not Reporting Some Common Errors?
Oct 31, 2009
I'm currently using VS2008 and VB.NET.When I attempt to populate a Queue that has not been instantiated with objects, the program simply hangs without throwing an error.I have run into this issue multiple times in different parts of the program in the past few days.What could be the cause of this?
Here's the code:
Structure ConsoleBufferLine
Public EntryDate As Date
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 have a weird problem that seems to of started happening yesterday afternoon. Basically, VS seems to of decided to act as if I had set like a "On Error Resume Next" style rule where instead of telling me about exceptions it just ignores them completely.For example, I just created a fresh new project and stuck this in the form_load event:
I have installed VS2008 in my machine. I made a small program in the VB. When I start debugging, the system responds by indicating that the program is running but I don't see any output. Is their a possibility that VS2008 debuggers woun't work with Windows XP Home Edition which comes with my laptop.
When working in a VB.NET project in Visual Studio (2008 specifically, but hopefully the answer applies to any version) is it possible to have intellisense/auto-complete only show the "All" tab instead of the "Common"/"All" tab? Or alternatively, have it default to the "All" tab.
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 event works ok, but the problem is that I don't know what field was clicked. Should I use objectinfo or something else? VB.net won't recognize for example e.objectinfo.
I am using Visual C# 2010 Express and Visual Basic 2010 Express on my Windows 8 developer preview PC.Before, there was no problem, both VB and C# work fine.But today, both VB and C# can't handle errors. I have created a simple application with VB and C#. (.Net framework 4.0) the codes are here:[code]But visual studio shows the dialog shown in first image instead of this dialog. So, I can't debug my program.If I enable break exception when thrown in Exceptions dialog, the problem solves, but at that point, visual studio breaks on EVERY exception , even handled exceptions... I don't want to break on every exception...
I have a large solution which contains a mixture of C# and VB.Net projects.If I get compilation errors because a project which several other projects depend upon fails to build, it is very hard to see the actual error(s) because of the number of VB errors in the error list window in Visual Studio. C# errors found in the projects I compiled show in the error list, but all VB errors appear (including in those projects I have not just compiled).Is there any way of turning off this behaviour so that VB errors only appear for projects that I have explicitly compiled?
I'm developing a windows form app in visual studio 2008 express. I'm usin a sql compact 3.5 database on it through the program, several changes are made to database data, and so, i have on form1_closing event, a code to save the dataset back to database, something like:
Private Sub Form1_Closing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Me.Validate()
[CODE]................
But when i run my program on the debugger, the changes i mkae, don't get saved, are lost...is this a charecteristic of debugger, or is my "saving code" wrong?
I already built the program, and the data is not being saved. how to saving the data ? by the way, all changes to dataset are made something like this:
I've been googling to find a guide on how to access a database with visual studio.I cant find anything complete or up to date. I should point out that I dont have a great deal of experience with SQL.I'm not really 100% sure where to start. Most of the guides I've found tend to assume your accessing an existing SQL database and I need to set one up from scratch. I'm not sure if I'm even setting SQL server up correctly. point me in the right direction on where to get started. A good, up to date tutorial would be great.
For my purposes the SQL database will only be written to from the local machine but there will also be another machine writing to this database.I'm currently using Visual basic Express 2010 and SQL Server Express 2008 R2, mostly because they are the most recent when I googled it.
creating windows applications - have always created web apps; I would like to create some reports for my users to view and I need to do it using window applications in visual studio 2005 version. In looking at my options, I see I can either create a .rdlc report from Report designer, or I can create a .rpt Crystal report.
We are in very critical position. In our orgnizantion our development team using Visual Studion 2010 with sp1 and they are using MVC 3. When they try to insert table or create a new dataset, the visual studion 2010 simply restarted again and again. How to fix this issue. The below are the event log files for the above issue.
Will i be able to successfully install 2010 beta 2 side by side 2008? because i want to test 2010 features and some development toolkits such as silverlight while i don't want to uninstall my visual studio 2008 professional.
I have a Visual Basic project and when working and modifying code, the compiler will crash and then a message will say something like "Microsoft visual studio encountered a problem and was shut down." I've tried editing code from the solution and the project. Both produce the error. Usually occurs when adding an "IF...Then..." condition. May work for hours but then crash. Solution will compile and build.
When I was learning QBasic I found a list of most common errors and it told me whether my errors were syntax errors or logic errors. Where I can find a similar list for VB 2008 Express Edition?
Is there a way or a tool that can automatically correct some common errors like "Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.DateTime?' to 'System.DateTime'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)"?I would want it to be able to automatically add (DateTime) to the offending line instead of going all over them manually. Is this possib
I am currently working on an VB.net program that handles an object defined in a COM dll.The problem is that sometimes that object causes a crash: an exception that cannot be handled with a 'Try Catch' is thrown and a dialog asking to debug with Visual Studio appears.
In a while loop, I am writing a progressively increasing integer value (between 0 and 100) to the Value attribute of a ProgressBar control, when it disappears from the window in which it resides. I have verified at the time that it disappears that the Min is 0, Max is 100, and Value is a valid integer in range.
How do I disable the background compiler for Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008?
For my sins, I have to work on a large VB.NET project and it often locks up for 20 seconds at a time whilst doing the very helpful background compilation
I'd rather work blind between compiles and be able to do some work.
I am trying to make a console program in Visual Basic on Visual Studio 2008. I want to ask the user of the program if he wants the premium version or the standard version. If he chooses the premium version, then I want it to say premium in his "receipt" later on and if he chooses standard, then standard in the receipt.
I have Visual Studio 2008 Professional and I'm trying to make it so I can click a button to send the application to the System Tray and then click the icon in the System Tray to make the application come back.
Can anyone provide me a method or sample code to do this?
I am very new to Visual Studio Application Development. I'm mostly a DB guy. I used Visual Studio as a Report Designer, not much of an .Net guy though I can understand it. I am now asked to create a .net application and I'm trying to create a "Hello World" starter app. I opened my Visual Studio, click File-New Project and all I see is Business Intelligence Projects and Other Project Types. My step-by-step guide says choose Visual Basic, Windows Forms Application. But I can't see it as an option.
I recently loaded my copy of MS Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition, with Visual Basic, on to my new laptop, one with a Windows 7 operating system. This version of Visual Studio had been on my other laptop, a Windows Vista machine. When I attempt to run any of my Visual Basic applications which has a MSFlexGrid container on it, I get this error message "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application... The error is: Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG). Also,
