Hi,

does anyone know if it is possible to search in visual studio, but in all solutions..?

Situations where you have 50+ projects, and want to use a function you've already written:

"Ok, so where did I do that before? I know I did something like this before... Was it this project? ...No... This one?...No... I give up, guess I have ro rewrite it..."

error MSB6006: "aspnet_compiler.exe" exited with code 1

gchq — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:39:29 GMT

All of a sudden I am getting that compiler message - usually (for me) it's a duplicated class name, but no changes have been made - no new pages created...

Under Tools - Options - Build and Run 'output verbosity' is set to Detailed, but all I get in the output window is:-

========================================================

Utility to precompile an ASP.NET application

D:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\WebDeployment\v8.0\Microsoft.WebDeployment.targets(426,9): error MSB6006: "aspnet_compiler.exe" exited with code 1.

Time Elapsed 00:00:32.57

Running the compiler in DOS with -errorstack I get

and loading the page that (I assume) is causing all this grief I get

Web Service - There is an error downloading *.asmx . The request failed with an empty response

crazypassions — Wed, 14 May 2008 14:39:38 GMT

Hello,

I have written a web service in visual studio 2005 and it works perfectly on my local machine. However, when I publish it on a web server, and try to access it from visual studio using Add web reference in a project, I can see the web service, but VS gives an error -

" There is an error downloading *.asmx . The request failed with an empty response"

Due to this, I am not able to add a web reference for the web service in my application.

Any idea? Permission issues?

Ironically, the same call from a visual studio 2008 works perfectly. (I cannot use VS2008 though, I was just testing through my options).

Please see if anybody can help here. Really urgent and important!!

Regards

Pranay!

Visual Studio 2005 Freezing (most of the time)

coffeefiend — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 10:43:17 GMT

I am running Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition and I am having trouble as it is freezing quite a lot.

I have the freezing issue when I save files or change what I am doing. By 'change what I am doing' I really mean anything. I might be editing a file and then click on a file in the Solution Explorer and then the IDE will freeze. I might just change between files that I am working (using the file tabs). I would say that the freezing occurs more often when I am working on projects that contain a large number of files.

The freezing is very frustrating as I literally have to sit and wait, or make a coffee.

I have installed SP1 and have not noticed any difference. I have also followed the steps outlined on '.Net Tip of the Day': http://dotnettipoftheday.org/tips/speedup_visual_studio.aspx. I did notice a difference from the changes suggested, the IDE runs faster but I still get my freezing problem as often.

My PC does not have the greatest spec, it has a Pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz with 2GB RAM, but I think it should be sufficient. I have experienced the same problem on new and faster PCs too.

If anyone has any ideas or advice I will be very grateful.

Thanks in advance.

add SqlDataAdapter to toolbox

Dman100 — Sun, 17 Jun 2007 00:10:52 GMT

I've installed VS2005 and I'm trying to add the sqlDataAdapter control to the toolbox. I've tried right clicking the toobox, choose items and selecting the SqlDataAdapter, but it still doesn't show up? I've googled and everything I've tried does not work.

I know there are new tools to handle the db connection (TableAdapters), but I'm still interested in learning some of the older methods to give me a better understanding, which is why I want to add the SqlDataAdapter.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Line numbers in stack trace

mike.ullerup — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:40:56 GMT

Hi,

I've noticed that I'm not getting line numbers along with my filename whenever I view a stack trace whenever an exception is thrown in my project. I'm compiling in debug mode and my pdb info is being generated along with my assemblies. I've searched the forums/google for the specifics of what I need, but everything I read just tells me that I need to set my config manager to debug and have debug=true in my web.config. Is there anything else I need to do to get them to show up?

Thanks

VS 2005 and Windows 7

WebDave — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 15:32:36 GMT

I have VS 2005 installed and applied the service pack for Vista (and windows 7). I'm some problems using the program like I used to in XP.

If I want to make a quick change to a file in my asp.net web application like web.config, I used to just double click it and it would open in VS 2005. Now it will open in VS but it won't let me save the changes.

If I set the devenv.exe to run as administrator throught properties screen I get a different error all together when opening a file. It first asks me if I want to let the following program make changes to my computer. When I say "yes" it then comes up with an error "There was a problem sending the command to the program".

If I use VS by starting from the start menu and running it, then opening the file from VS it works and I can save the file just fine.

I'd like to be able to do a quick edit like on XP.
