Run Projects From Within Visual Studio?
Nov 4, 2008
The issue at hand is that when I try to run my projects from within Visual Studio (2008 with freshly installed SP 1 ), one fifth of the times it hangs, showing me this lovely dialog telling me that visual studio is currently busy, and that I can either switch to the busy part, or continue waiting - and nothing happens when clicking either buttons.Thing is, it never continues from that point, and the only solution I found so far was to close down the process called blabla.vshost.exe. At this point my Visual Studio will either give me message saying 'Error: Unable to run project' and I can run the project again, and hope it'll work this time, or Visual Studio will say that an error occurred and then it restarts VS leaving me to reload the project.
I think it has something to do with building the .exe. I believe VS studio hangs when the .exe is already in use by vbhost.exe, and it therefor cannot overwrite the old exe-file.

Basically, the question is: Where (and in which format) should I store textual developer documentation associated with my Visual Studio projects?
To elaborate: XML comments are great, but they don't cover all use cases. Sometimes, you'd like to describe the class architecture of the project at a high level, add usage notes to your library or just leave any other kind of message to future generations of developers working on this project.
I'd like to add these documents directly as files into the Visual Studio project, to ensure (a) that they are available to the developer without further searching and (b) they are version controlled (using the same svn/git/whatever repository as the source code).
Currently, I add a folder _Documentation to the project and use text files, but I'm not sure if this is the best solution. Visual Studio does not have an option for automatically word-wrapping text1, and manually fixing line breaks after each change is annoying. On the other hand, Word documents don't work well with version control, and TeX is too much of a hassle to set up and teach on each developer PC.
Is there a well-established best practice for this?
1 I know that there's Edit/Advanced/Word-Wrap, but this only affects the display, not the file itself.

I'm creating a new website in Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate / vb and I want to add things to it, to jazz it up. So I'm adding new projects from the VS online templates. It seems there are many more projects in c# than vb. I'm trying to figure out if it's okay to add a c# and razor project to a vb website, because if not, I'll start the website in c#.
Will mixing languages between projects within your website present issues in the future when it comes time to build and publish? Or is it recommended I begin the website in c# (since there are more projects within VS) and keep the languages the same throughout the website?

Single file for all interfaces or one file per interface definition? Balena & Dimauro's of book of 'Pratical Guidelines' advocates a single file called Interfaces.vb/cs to hold all interface definitions. Their aim is to minimise the proliferation of small files, where each holds a single interface definition.I can see benefits to both approaches. Does anyone have any strong views or experience that strongly supports one approach?

When I try to add a new project to our existing Visual Studio solution, it now adds a ProjectSection(WebsiteProperties) for ALL projects in the solution, although only three of 24 projects are web sites.
Only an Undo Checkout can undo this.
What is causing this new behavior (Visual Studio 2005 SP1 v8.0.50727.762 (SP.050727.7600)) ?
How can I disable it?

In Visual Studio 2005, I can't seem to get the Intellisense menu to pop up at all when I click CTRL+Space. This seems to be limited to VB.NET files. I have tried creating new Visual C# and C# web projects, and it works fine there. There also doesn't seem to be a problem in things like CSS files in VB.NET projects. But when I create a new VB.NET web site, CTRL+Space does nothing. I have tried resetting all the Import and Export setting. That didn't work either.

In the "old days" I was working with Linux to create C/C++ programs (really really BASIC...HA!...programs, just learning to program in the courses as an intro) by creating a text file with the source code that was then fed to the compiler/linker that then spit out the executable binary.

I'm running Visual Studio 2010 on a terminal server, and have been, with relatively few problems, for some time. This morning I fired up my PC and over the UK's long weekend, the following issue seems to have developed.I've got a bunch of projects (but not all of my projects, and not all of the projects in a given solution) complaining that a particular file (which does not exist on the computer) cannot be opened, and so those projects will not compile anymore. Here's the error:
Error 31 Unable to open module file'C:Users[username]AppDataLocalTemp2.NETFramework,Version=v4.0.AssemblyAttributes.vb':
System Error &H80070003&
I could simply copy the file into that directory and be done with it, I'm pretty sure that will work,EDIT: Okay, now things have gotten to a whole new level of weird. I've rebooted the server, I get the same error message, only now the file it is asking for exists and can be opened in Visual Studio with no problems. another part of the IDE still insists that it's unable to open the module file.
EDIT 2: Can't delete the file because it claims to be open in another program, but I've logged off and logged on again, and there shouldn't be anything accessing it.
EDIT 3: Because there's a wall of comments below his answer, I'll mention here that Jared's suggestion to delete the SUO file for the solutions having the problem (not files specifically to do with any of the problem projects, strangely) was what solved this, eventually.

I have to develop an application using MS Visual Studio 2005 or above with the following objective:
* The application should allow users to create as many new forms as they want and each form should behave like a MS Visual Studio WinForm. By saying that it should be a container for drag and drop of controls from the toolbox that I will develop....
* Once the user design's each screen to his taste by placing various controls on the form, he should be able to save the form as a screen. Of course I have to provide functionality for each of the controls such as if he drags a button on to the form, he should be able to specify what action it has to perfom when clicked when the application is put into run mode. Quite similar to regular windows form button.
* My application should have two modes: a DESIGN MODE, where user can drag, drop controls and specify what they should do when put into RUN MODE. This is quite similar to MS Visual Studio designer.
* Last but not least is to be able to access the application via the browser with the same look and feel his desktop version.

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.

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.

Does anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.
At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates
Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?

This is my first try of Visual Basic 2010 Express, though I have 10 yrs+ experience in VBA. I'm running Windows XP SP2 on a desktop pc with following installed: Visual Basic 2010 Express... just installed! SQL Server 205 Express ... been running on pc for 12 months I've created a new DB in SQL for my test application, but have not added any users or permissions to it as I'm using Windows authentication.
I've created a new Windows Forms Solution in VB2010EXP and tried adding a new Data Source for my new SQL DB, but it keeps giving error message about not having rights ot the db. 2 days of searching on the web has confirmed many others with similar issues, but no obvious solution. Eventually I find a few threads about permissions and moving the mdf into the root of the HDD, so try moving my mdf file up closer to the root of the Hard Drive msf was in C:Documents and Settings\_SharedDataApplication_DataMSSQL2005Data now in C:SQL2005Data

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.
