If not, you can configure the JIT compiler to disable optimisations and generate tracking information – see here on how to set the configuration. This … Read more
I had this same issue going from e.g gcc to visual studio for C programming. Make sure your include file is actually in the directory — not just shown in the VS project tree. For me in other languages copying into a folder in the project tree would indeed move the file in. With Visual … Read more
I’m afraid there isn’t an option to change this in Visual Studio, at least not one I can see. I’ve had the same issue sometimes, and generally use three ways around it: Select the lines to comment out and use the keyboard shortcut: CTRL+K, C Cut the closing */ and paste it at the end … Read more

In the beta, the setup of the EF Tools (also known as “SQL Server Data Framework Tools”) contains this MSBUILD targets file: … Read more

I had both the http and https ports setup as the same. <site name=”{projectname}” id=”3″> <application path=”https://stackoverflow.com/” applicationPool=”Clr4IntegratedAppPool”> <virtualDirectory path=”https://stackoverflow.com/” physicalPath=”{myPath}” /> </application> <bindings> <binding protocol=”https” bindingInformation=”*:57287:localhost” /> <binding protocol=”http” bindingInformation=”*:57287:localhost” /> </bindings> </site> To solve … Read more
I had the same problem, the tests failed for apparently no reason. Later I found that a buggy method was causing a StackOverflowException. When I fixed my bug, the VS bug disappeared. Maybe it works most of the time because you don’t run the faulty code.
