Visual Studio 2008 Remote Debugging like Visual Studio 6.0

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:02:55 Z

Hi!

Is it possible to set up VS2008 for remote debugging like old good 6.0? That means: i have an application running on the remote PC, i have my project (sources) on the laptop, i press F5 and my application magically starts on the remote PC and i can (!) set breakpoints and watch the variables.

Everything that is written down in the MSDN does not work, the Microsoft support is not able to help me.

Single stepping (F10) on VC8 debugger = Exception, after migrating to Windows 2008 Server

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 09:05:24 Z

I've done my due diligence trying to solve this issue myself and have hit a dead end. After migrating from W2K3 (x64) server to W2K8 (x64) server I can no longer single step (F10 key) in the Visual Studio 2005 debugger - I get an exception being throw by VC8 IDE. I can "run to breakpoint" (F5 key) ok. I have SP1 installed and the Vista-SP installed (both of which I re-installed). I noticed that this is a known problem with the VC9 debugger but I could not see any hot fix for VC8. I've only seen one other person with this problem for VC8 + Windows 2008 server, yet no posted solutions. I did install the VC9 Express edition a week ago, so I'm not sure if that had affected my machine in any way; I've since un-installed it. Any suggestions?

Windows 7 Application Not Responding Window While debugging

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 10:46:42 Z

Hello, recently upgraded to Windows 7, I like it a lot, but one annoying thing is that while debugging, Windows 7 thinks the program is hung and the not responding window comes up, and makes my screen all white so I can't easily debug or continue program execution. Has any one else experienced this? Is there a way to turn this off OR increase the time for application not responding... ?

Many Thanks

Get a compile time of each cpp file?

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 09:23:50 Z

Hi Guys,

I am new to this forum. I want some information regarding the build time.
I have a requirement in which I want to calculate the time required by each file to get compiled.
I got one setting
Tools > Options > Project and Solutions > VC++ Project Settings >Build Timing
But this tells the build time of whole project, but I want for each signle cpp file.
So is there any way to do this or any third party tool is available which can be used??
Pls guys it's urgent so pls reply.........

Debug Mode stops in appmodule.cpp _tWinMain

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 16:08:24 Z

Progams compile and run no problem in "Win32 Release" mode, but stop on entry in "Win32 Debug" mode. I do not have this problem on a second system, but I cannot see any differences in the settings between systems. The appmodule.cpp souce is displayed with a comment "export WinMain to force linkage to this module", and continuation is not possible. (WinXP Pro/Visual C++6.0)

Visual Basic compiler Error

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 05:06:37 Z

hi,

our application has a website and 5 projects in the solution.the 5 projects contains the class files of the aspx classified based on the modules in to 5 different project.

when i am running my application in debug mode,when i need to make a change to any class file in any of the 5 project,i stop the debugging and when i edit that file,Visual basic compiler error keeps on occurring until i close the project or sometimes my development environment itself restarts.i am using VS2005.

PS:The error doesnt come when i make changes 1st time,it occurs only when i stop the debugging and then make changes.

regards,

IE6 crashes when running application in debug mode in vs2005

When i am running my application in debug mode and when a post back occurs my IE6 is not responding.this occurs randomly across different forms in the application.

Prevent Debugger from Miscillaneously altering Class Field Values

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 22:24:31 Z

Yea...this is annoying.

So, I have this rather complex class model that I'm debugging and finding the Debugger (or VS, whatever) is changing a value that it shouldn't, and I cannot find where the value is being changed.

First: This is a SQL Parsing class, so it basically can take a string that is a sql statement, and break it down into its constituent parts, verify (validate) the SQL statement against the database, so I can have a more meaningful error reporting engine. And then, based upon the type of command(select, insert, update, etc) I can give progress reports as the command is executed.

Given the nature of this object model, you can imagine that I have some 8000+ lines of code and can't really post it all, but the concept here is pretty simple (in my mind), and if i was back using unmanaged code, I would expect there was some form of Memory Overload. (IE a pointer going to a space in memory, and another pointer that was not nulled properly is being assigned to while it points to the same memory block). Since .Net is managed code this should not occur (unless .Net is more messed up than we thought).

So it should be pretty straightforward:

fields:
_con as SqlConnection
_count as integer
_dirty as boolean

properties
Connection
     Get - if _con is nothing then _con = GetConnection(true)
               return _con

Count
     Get - if _dirty then _count = GetCount()
               _dirty = false
               return _count

Now, I can only describe what is happening, not the why. There are no other threads that I've created, but that doesn't mean VS or .net has something else on its mind. I Parse the SQL fine, and at the end of my Parsing function, I call Me.Invalidate() which sets the _dirty flag to true. I then proceed to click a button on my form which runs:
cmd.Execute()
Cmd.Execute starts off like this:
try
if Me.Connection isnot Nothing then
     Me.MaxItems = Me.Count
     Me.ExecuteSQL()
end if
catch
finally
end try

Okay, so the error is happening at the "Me.Connection isnot nothing" line.
I step through (into) allowing the debugger to step into properties and operators so I can see what's happening, and the breakpoint is set at the me.connection if statement above. When the break point is hit, the Watch window shows that Me._dirty = True, as it should, I step into the Me.Connection property, and the Me._dirty becomes false.

I have No watches pointing to Me.COunt property, and the {Me} I item in the Locals Window is collapsed so the Count property should not be executed until I get there, yet for some reason, once I step into the Me.Connection property, the _dirty member is set to false, and the _count member is set to -2 (one of my error codes returned by the GetCount() method).

So, How do I tell the debugger NOT to follow any lines of code EXCEPT the current lines I'm stepping over/into? I'm not even doing multi-threaded at the moment so there is no reason that the Count property should be accessed prior to the line above: Me.MaxItems = Me.Count. Since this is happening in the debugger somehow, the breakpoints are not met, and when I step into the Get accessor of the Count property, it jumps over the if statement because _dirty is at that point False. Why?

Thanks

Properties Box in Dataset Designer Stops Updating After Debugging

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:00:16 Z

Hi Everyone,

I'm using VS2008 Professional Edition with SP1. I'm working with a strongly typed dataset, so I do a lot of debugging while having the Dataset designer open.

The problem is this: I run my project in debug mode with my dataset designer open. I finish debugging and shut down the app. When I get back to the dataset designer, no matter what I click, the properties window will only show the property of whatever was selected while debugging. Even if I click on different datatables, different columns, or different files in my project (for example a form), the properties window still does not refresh. I tried closing down the properties window and reopening it, but with no luck. It's not a show stoper since if I shut down Visual Studio and restart it the properties window starts working again, but it's been happening for months now and I've started to get annoyed by this. I've searched multiple times if anyone has run in to this issue but I haven't found a similar post. Does anyone know why this happens, and what I can do to prevent it?

Thanks in advance.

Unable to start program element not found

Mon, 27 Apr 2009 13:12:34 Z

Installed IE 8 final the other day and since when i debug in VS 2008 with an asp.net project I get an error, sometimes:

Unable to start program http://localhost:50183/directory/asppage.aspx element not found.

Now, it does open IE 8 , but IE 8 says connecting I cannot close it except by the task manager. This does not happen all the time. This is driving me nuts and I cannot find any information on this issue anywhere.

Any information on how to address this issue would be great.

ASP .net Development server localhost problem.

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:53:48 Z

____.

I am developing the asp .net web applicaiton using vs 2008.

When I try to debug the aspx page, ASP .net Development server start and should display the specific page in IE 7.0.
However ASP .net Development server started and IE launched and close immediately IE browser.

IE url address is http://localhost:1207/Default.aspx.

So, I tried to launch IE browser and type the above url, IE was closed also without any error message.

I think that the IE has some problem to display the page url included "localhost".

Could you help me solve it?

Thanks.

Getting RID of Just-In-Time debugger

Thu, 26 Jan 2006 04:28:37 Z

Hello all.

I installed Visual Studio, and had no problems. Except one. The Just-In-Time debugger. It seems to come up all the time now, and it has broken Winamp AND Cakewalk SONAR 5. I tried disabling it in Visual Studio's options, but that doesn't stop the pop up and the subsequent shut down of the program (which did NOT happen before). Any ideas?

Trouble with the f-word (FORTRAN, that is)

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:00:46 Z

I am having trouble getting some legacy FORTRAN code (wrapped in C++ and built as a DLL) to work under VS2008. I have the now defunct(?) Compaq FORTRAN compiler 6.6 . The code and wrappers were last built and linked around VC6 vintage. I suspect my problem is to do with C or C++ runtime library versions.

Here's a sequence to show the problem:

1. Create an empty VS2008 project. Select Visual C++ , Win32, Win32 Project. Set "Application type" to "DLL" (This is all trying to get as close as I can to what was done before)

2. At this point the project builds and links fine.

3. Add a .FOR file with a trivial FORTRAN subroutine (remember those?) to the project. I compile it using a rule which executes a command line like this:
fl32 /c /nologo /W1 /I.. /I. /4Yd /4Ya /DOS_WINDOWS /Od /Fm /Zi -c /FoDebug\TEST.obj c:\Chris\...\TEST.FOR
(Don't ask me to explain this, I inherited it :-( )

4. Build is now missing DFOR.lib, so I add the appropriate LIB directory (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\DF98\LIB) with Linker>General>Addiotional Library Directories

5. Rebuild and I am now missing libc.lib. So I add C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\LIB as another library directory

Link now fails with

1>LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'libc.lib' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
1>dllmain.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __RTC_Shutdown
1>dllmain.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __RTC_InitBase

(The real code has several more such issues but you get the idea). I've tried messing around with the "Ignore Specific Library" option as suggested but without success.

Is there any way round this, or am I basically stuffed until I upgrade to a newer FORTRAN compiler?

Thanks

Chris

remote debug, breakpoint will not be hit, no executable code...

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:34:10 Z

When setting a breakpoint to debug a C++ .exe on a remote computer I get the message 'The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No executable code is associated with this line".

For testing purposes, I replicated the problem by creating a dialog based MFC application. The VS2008 wizard created the MFC dialog application using default options. The only change I made was to add a button and corresponding event handler. The event handler simply called ‘MessageBox’. The test was to set a breakpoint on the line which called 'MessageBox'. If CLR support is enabled then the breakpoint will not be hit when this application is remotely debugger. If CLR support is disabled then the breakpoint will be hit.

My application requires CLR support so disabling CLR support is not an option when using the remote debugger.

Some additional information:
- the symbols for the application exe are loaded
- the firewall is disabled on both computers
- VS2008 Pro is installed on both computers
- the local computer is running 64 bit Vista Home Premium (SP2) on a Intel quad core
- the remote computer is running 32 bit WinXP Pro (SP3) on a Pentium 4 (single core)

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas of why a ‘remote’ breakpoint is not hit when CLR support (i.e. mixed code) is added to a C++ app?

Thanks,

Ian

how do I get visual studio 2008 to break at vb line that caused program fault

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:12:05 Z

vs 2008 goes to "Catch" code when my sub breaks. How can I get it to break at the particular line that causes the break?

On csproj file open: Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Compiler could not be created. QueryService for '{7D960B16-7AF8-11D0-8E5E-00A0C911005A} failed.

Wed, 04 Jun 2008 18:59:19 Z

I wasn't sure if I should post this under the VS Install Group but after some investigation this seems to be a debugger problem.

I am running on a Windows XP SP2 box. I had Visual Studio 2005 installed.

I recently installed Visual Studio 2008, along with the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 (6001.18000.367).

I also have Microsoft Visual C++ Compilers 2008 Standard Edition - enu - x86 (and x64)

My command line build works properly using MSBuild v3.5.

But, when I go to open up any .csproj file (which has been converted to vsstudio 2008 proj file) in visual studio 2008 I get the error:

Project 'x' could not be opened because the Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Compiler could not be created. QueryService for '{7D960B16-7AF8-11D0-8E5E-00A0C911005A}' failed

It looks as though this regkey is pointing to the Visual Studio Debugger.

Should it be pointing to a specific location? Does visual studio 2008 have a specific location? I believe it is pointing to an inccorect file.

When I open a vbproj I file in Visual Studio 2008 I get:

The Visual Studio Debugger ({C9DD4A57-47FB-11D2-83E7-00C04F9902C1}) did not load because of previous errors. For assistance, contact the package vendor. To attempt to load this package again, type 'devenv /resetskippkgs' at the command prompt.

Debugging With Break Points

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:19:30 Z

I set the break points at page load and button click events. But when I debug the web page, it doesn't stop at page load. And also when I click the button, it doesn't stop at the click event where I set the break points. I want to check my codes and find the errors one by one. But now I cannot find which line contain errors.

Could you help me. Thank you.

Cannot run debugger - VS .net version 2003

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 09:49:17 Z

Hi all,

I'm new to programming using MS Visual Studio. I have installed VS .net (version 2003) on my PC running Windows Vista. I know there are "known compatibility issues", but I need to test the program I've written on an older version of VS, for backward compatibility testing purposes. The system that will eventually be running the program is an
older system.

When I wrote a simple Hello World program, I can't even debug it. I get the error message "'devenv.exe' does not contain debugging information. (No symbols loaded.) Click OK to debug anyway.". When I clicked OK, it simply opens another instance of VS, not my program.

Is there a way to get around this problem, or is Vista simply not compatible with this version of VS?

Thank you.

Regards,
Rayne

Visual Studio Caches Source Files before build starts

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 21:07:12 Z

Really, this question belongs in a Visual Studio Build System forum, but there is none, so the Debugger is the next closest thing because the effects can be seen in the debugger.

Here is the problem. When you start a build in visual studio, visual studio will cache the contents of all compilable source files (those with a Compile msbuild node). If any of your source files get modified during the build, then these source modifications will not be used during the build. The modifications will show up in the editor, but not in the assemblies. The result is that when debugging, your source will differ from what was used to generate the debug assemblies and the debugger will complain about this.

Before anyone asks, a good example of when this would happen is when you are generating source files from a template (or in our case a grammar spec). I have read elsewhere that this problem exists for T4 templates that generate source files, but i have not verified this.

Finally, it doesn't matter if you perform the source generation steps earlier in the build (i.e. before the compile) because the caching occurs at the very instant that you start a build. By this i mean that even if you inject your msbuild target as a dependency of the BeforeBuild target, it won't matter, because even in the before build target the source files have already been cached and any updates to them will not be used in this build.

The current solution is to simply build twice in a row, but this is by all means a terrible solution. If anyone knows of a way to force visual studio to ignore cached source files, or force a refresh of source files, etc... this would be a great help.

Finally, this is not related to the msbuild system, as this problem does not exist when invoking msbuild from the command line. It is purely visual studio related, which makes me wonder if there is some configuration option somewhere that can be disabled so that source file caching is not used.

vsjitdebugger and Local System account problem

Mon, 08 Jan 2007 15:08:38 Z

Using Visual Studio 2005

I'm trying to debug a .exe that's run as a part of windows installer custom action during an installation, for various reason I need to break into this at the time the installation is running. To accomplish this I tried adding an entry to the "Image File execution options" in the registry to trigger vsjitdebugger when the installation runs the .exe.

Now, if I manually run the application (outside the installation) everything works fine, the JIT debugger is triggered and I can debug. But when the .exe is run by the installation (the windows installer service running in the local system account) I receive the following error:

An error occurred while launching '"C:\Program Files\etc....<myapp.exe>"':

The Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger was not notified that the application correctly started.

I can see that the application is running, but I'm not given the option to start a debugger.

I can reproduce the same error by running my application manually in the system account using "psexec" from sysinternals.

I did try allowing the windows installer service to interact with the desktop, but that doesn't make any difference, so the problem here seems to be the system account

Can anyone offer some advise?

VS2005 ActiveSync and Windows CE5.0 device debugging

Mon, 20 Oct 2008 12:32:37 Z

I have a Windows XP prof OS PC running Visual Studio 2005 both fully updated. I have just started debugging a simple application on a Windows CE 5.0 device remotely connected via USB using ActiveSync.

The debugging worked correctly when I created a simple c# application with a form and button but has subsequently stopped working in my code. I can step into the InitialiseComponent code but the breakpoint on the button event handler displays the message "The breakpoint will not be hit, the specified module has not loaded" although the code will be called.

I've tried all the above but even the simple application won't debug any more but I can step into the initialiseComponent code still. Any thoughts?

Are there VC++ breakpoint event handlers

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 21:23:41 Z

Hello Guys,

Is there any way to make an event trigger when a breakpoint is hit in the VC++ debugger (I'm using VC++ 6.0) and another event trigger when control is returned to the program (not just stepping through but fully returned). I need to suspend some real-time processing before breaking into the debugger or else the Window OS is crashed by the overflowed interrupts from the device. Then after control is returned I need to resume those real-time processing.

Thanks a lot if you need more clarification just ask.

Why can I no longer execute code changes while debugging

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 16:40:09 Z

When I step through my code in debug mode, I can make all of the change to the code that I like. But as I continue to step through, it only executes the old code. It seems to be running the compiled version and ignoring any change I make.

This has only just begun happening, it used to work fine. I have not change any options and I have rebooted to make sure it wasn't my PC. Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm using the 2008 Pro version.

Custom debug engine: Making the registers view work

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 14:24:04 Z

Brief description of my system:
I am extending VS 2008 and have created my own debug engine and I am able to launch, run and break. I have also created process with program, thread and a frame. Further I have created debugcode and debugcontext.

What I would like to do:
Make the registers view work

What I have done so far:
When I break the SDM gets the frame and calls IDebugStackFrame2.EnumProperties I identify the Registers GUID and fill in the IEnumDebugPorpertyInfo2 as follows:

            // Test with two hardcoded registers

            elementsReturned = 2;

            DEBUG_PROPERTY_INFO[] propInfo = new
 DEBUG_PROPERTY_INFO[elementsReturned];
            for
 (int
 i = 0; i < propInfo.Length; i++)
            {
                DEBUG_PROPERTY_INFO property = new
 DEBUG_PROPERTY_INFO();

                // Set some dummy variables as name and values

                StringBuilder sb = new
 StringBuilder("Reg "
);
                property.bstrFullName = sb.ToString() + i.ToString();
                property.bstrName = sb.ToString() + i.ToString();
                property.bstrType = "int"
;
                property.bstrValue = i.ToString();

                // Set attributes

                property.dwAttrib = (uint
)(
                    DBG_ATTRIB_FLAGS.DBG_ATTRIB_VALUE_RAW_STRING   | // Can presented as a raw string

                    DBG_ATTRIB_FLAGS.DBG_ATTRIB_ACCESS_ALL         | // All access

                    DBG_ATTRIB_FLAGS.DBG_ATTRIB_STORAGE_REGISTER   | // Indicates storage in the register

                    DBG_ATTRIB_FLAGS.DBG_ATTRIB_DATA                 // Indicates that this object is a data field. 

                    );

                // Set valid fields

                property.dwFields = (uint
)(
                    DEBUGPROP_INFO_FLAGS.DEBUGPROP_INFO_FULLNAME   |
                    DEBUGPROP_INFO_FLAGS.DEBUGPROP_INFO_NAME       |
                    DEBUGPROP_INFO_FLAGS.DEBUGPROP_INFO_TYPE       |
                    DEBUGPROP_INFO_FLAGS.DEBUGPROP_INFO_VALUE      |
                    DEBUGPROP_INFO_FLAGS.DEBUGPROP_INFO_ATTRIB     | 
                    DEBUGPROP_INFO_FLAGS.DEBUGPROP_INFO_PROP
                    );

                // Create a property

                property.pProperty = new
 DebugExpressionProperty(); 


                propInfo[i] = property;

            }

            // Create an enum of my list

            enumObject = new
 DebugPropertyInfoEnum(propInfo);

When I run this; my register view says "No data available"

The debug property attribute DBG_ATTRIB_FLAGS is not well documented and I do not know what are the correct values for a "traditional" registry property.

Visual Studio 2005: Breakpoint not getting hit... No symbols loaded for the current document

Mon, 30 Mar 2009 09:08:28 Z

hI,

I am developing a package in VS2005 using C# language.

The Visual studio installation package which i create has a Intialize method by default. I have set a breakpoint at that line. But the brekapoint does not hit at that point( It does not work at any other points also). I haven't made any changes to the code and have not added any new exteernal assembly to my project.

I cleaned the solution, rebuilt it, but the problem persists. I deleted the .dll files manually. and built it again, but the problem didn't get solved.

Can anyone tell me the reason for this problem? as well as provide a solution?

Thanks,
Nayana

runtime problem optimize optimization watch 1 window variable "does not exist in the current context"

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 21:34:39 Z

Thanks for your time.
Visual Studio 2008 on Vista C#
I have also looked at some similar questions
I noticed casually but not via intense testing this problem under Vista .. I do not remember this problem under Windows XP
This is a runtime error NOT a compile time error.
During runtime I use the IDE to look at variable values (exciting)
For some variables I see in the watch 1 window of the ide
"does not exist in the current context"
and the variable name does not appear the locals window
I have attempted to turn off optimization .. this attempt fails for me and the undesired situation persists
It has been stated elsewhere that optimization can make some variables unnecessary
On the menus of VS2008 I navigated
Project <> Application Name Properties <> Build <> Optimize Code
The check and uncheck occurs .. without a successful affect.
(Is there an elaborate way to check and uncheck this option???)

Summary
Desired Situation
To see all variable in the local variables window and the watch 1 window
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Actual Failed Situation
Some variable names are not available for inspection even with Optimization turned OFF

Thanks in advance for your comments

Debugging a Visual Studio 2005/SQL Server Reports project using MSVSMON.EXE

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:00:10 Z

I am trying to use the debugger in an ASP/VB project written in VS2005. It works untill the code calls ReportViewer.ServerReport.SetParameters(paramList).

I get an error message that says:
"Unable to automatically step into the erver. Unable to determine a stopping location. Verofy symbols are loaded. Symbol not found:
Microsoft.ReportingServices.Webserver.ReportExecutionService.ListSecureMethods()."

MSVSMON.EXE is running on the SQL Server with no authentication and the remote debugging monitor says I have connected.

Thefollowing text is the last few rows in the output window. Does anyone know how I can get remote debugging to work?

Remote Debugger Very Slow To Connect, Step Through

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 22:50:14 Z

I'm connecting my development box (running Windows Server 2003 x64) to a Windows 7 x64 box. I initiate the remote debugger by using the "Attach to Process" feature under the tools menu. I type in the IP address, and use remote debugging (without authentication). On the receiving end, I set msvcmon to accept connections from any user (No Authentication).

When I try to attach, I see output on the receiving computer (Win7 x64). It prints out "Administrator Connected" every 5-6 seconds. On the sending end (Server 2K3 x64), the UI waits. It is still responsive, however I cannot cancel the attach request. There are no firewalls on either computer and no anti virus software. Eventually, after about 2-3 minutes, I get a listing of all processes and can select the one I want to debug. Once I attach to that process, debugging becomes horrendeously slow. Each time I step over a line of code, it takes a few seconds to register.

This sounds like a bad network connection issue, but that's imposable. I have tried this over routers, switches and including VMWare running on my Server 2K3 box. It does not matter what OS I try to connect to, remote debugging is just horribly slow.

Here is the version I am running:

VBNET, error message

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 02:19:17 Z

I have developed a VBNET project which has three tabs and it seems to do what I want the application to do. But, when I add another tab in the project, I get the following error message. I am new to VBNET and appreciate help in diagnosing the error. To my surprise, even when I delete the new tab, the application no longer works.

How to stop MS VB 2008 Express edition from saving the project every time it runs

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 02:26:01 Z

MS VB 2008 Express saves the project any time one runs the project. Is it possible to stop the software from saving the project every time.

Beginer question (C/C++).

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 22:23:23 Z

Hello.

For long time I use Borland Builder. It getting old (2002) and I got access to MSDNAA resources so I decide to try new Visual Studio 2008 Professional. I'm a physicist so my programming skill is not super high. I got problem with understanding how debuger work here. I prepare very simple example:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <conio.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
int value;
FILE *in;

in=fopen("test.txt","rt");
fscanf(in,"%d",&value);
printf("%d\n",value);
fclose(in);

return 0;
}

Let's assume that file "test.txt" don't exist. In such case program crash in line "fscanf(in,"%d",&value);". In Borland Builder after a run this program I got window with some error message and then editor set cursor in this line - so I know where problem is. In Visual Studio however when I compile and run (as a "Debug" build ofc) I got window that say:

"Debug Assertion Failed!"

and I can see that problem is not in my program but in file:

f:\dd\vctools\crt_bld\self_x86\crt\src\fscanf.c line 52

witch is fun because I even don't have drive F:

Question: is there any way to force VS2008 to show me where problem really is located???

Best regards

Yansen
PS Sorry for my bad english.

Remote Debugger not working with XSLT

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 16:01:16 Z

When I try to debug an XSL transform on a remote server, the debugger halts at the breakpoint in the XSLT/is able to step through, but no information from the XSLT is available.
The "Locals" window shows several {urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt-debug...}... entries - it seems as though the debugger is still in ".net mode" and doesn't switch to xslt.

The exact same files and project work perfectly when using the integrated webserver.

Local system: Windows 7 RC, Visual Studio 2008 SP1
Remote System: Windows Server 2008 R2 RC, Visual Studio 2008 Remote Debugger SP1 x64

trying to get t-sql debugging working from VSTS(uite) 2008 SP1

Sun, 03 May 2009 21:00:37 Z

OS: Win7 RC
VS: Team Suite 2008, then Team Explorer installed, then SP1 applied
SQL: SQL 2008 Standard with SP1 applied
Project: ASP.NET 3.5 Web Site (not Web Application)
current account ("Owner") is in the Administrators group and UAC is turned off (set to the bottom of the slider)

To enable T-SQL debugging, I went to the web site project properties, "Web" tab, and turned on the "SQL Server" checkbox under the "Debuggers" section at the bottom.

When I then "Start Debugging" (F5) I get an error that T-SQL debugging failed

Cannot debug some of the code in process w3wp.exe [760]. See below for status.

Managed code succeeded.
T-SQL code succeeded.
T-SQL code failed (0x80040a07).

the "succeeded then failed" for t-sql is very odd, of course.

unfortunately, I can't find any hits for what 0x80040a07 might be caused by.

If i open one of the sprocs using server explorer and try to set a breakpoint, the breakpoint has the yellow exclamation mark warning with a hover-over comment of "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document."

I've also tried having the connection string specifically use "sa" to connect to the sql server, then having the connection in server explorer also use sa, but that didn't help.

I've also tried (from googling around)
1) regsvr32 sqldbg.dll
2) exec sp_sdidebug 'legacy_on' (doesn't appear to exist on SQL 2008)
3) sp_enable_sql_debug (didn't seem to help)

I can't seem to get debugging working from SSMS either.
1) trying to Debug -> Start Debugging with a breakpoint set in the sproc results in:
"Data is Null. This method or property cannot be called on Null values. (System.Data)"
2) I can set a breakpoint in the sproc, but when I execute the sproc it doesn't hit the breakpoint, it just executes the sproc

Any hints/tips on what I could try next to get t-sql debugging working? Not being able to step into a debug the sprocs is quite the PITA :)

Thanks!!

James
