Edit and Continue in VS2008

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this. We know of this behavior in VS 2005. We will investiage this and get back to you.

hi

any news on this one?

Hi Tolisss,

Unfortunately no. It is on our bug list, but we have not made progress on this issue. Once we do we'll update everyone.

Is there a workaround for this, it's a real pain in the butt.

Hi Martin,

I understand the frustration. Currently there is no real workaround.

If it helps, you can use the VS tools to modify state. For instance, in the watch windows you can set the values of parameters, then continue debugging. You can use the Immediate window to run commands that can change the state of your object. It's not perfect, but it can handle some of this stuff.

I'd like to know more about how specifically you use Edit and Continue in order to understand better. Is it actually changing the code, changing initialization of parameters, renaming, etc. Maybe we can find other ways to help you work around this issue.

Thanks

I'm not changing values, I want to change the logic in my code and continue running the program.

The project I'm doing this on does not have any Unit Tests, and does not even have a reference to Typemock.dll, so it must be something to do with the IDE plugin...

I have tried disabling Typemock from the VS menu, but it still won't allow me to Edit an Continue. I'm thinking of removing the IDE plugin until I need it.

I'm sure there is a good reason why Typemock is causing this behavior, but if I'm not using it in me project (or in the solution) it should not interfere with the normal execution of VS2008.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your answers. Let's take it offline. I'll send a separate email.

Thanks,

Can you please confirm that this issue has been addressed in version 5?

Thanks,
Martin.

Martin,

Sorry :cry: , it is not part of version 5.

Confirmed not working in version 5.12.

Can't work without this function, so I guess I just have to unistall. :(

Pleeease fix.. There are many in my company that's very frustrated with this bug. And I guess we're not the only ones..
