Visual Studio 2012 Professional Update 5 11.0.61219.00

Windows 7 Ultimate

Hi everyone,

I am having trouble with a solution freezing whenever I Clean, Build, Rebuild or open anything up in the solution. I try deleting the .suo file and restart the solution and it works for a little while. Then to solution hangs on anything again. So I delete the .suo file again but it doesn't work. the only thing works is a system reboot and we go back to the same process again. I tried a lot of things on the internet but still can't solve this. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Need to sort and display lots of text

First off, I'm a total newbie at programming, so sorry if this doesn't make much sense.

I need to sort and display a lot of text based on previous user input.  Probably 100-150 lines out of a potential 1000 or so (with embedded variables and calculations).  I've been using a richtextbox and a bunch of if...then.... richtextbox.text=richtextbox.text+.... during the form load event.   At about half way through the list, it just quits adding lines. 

Are there limits to the form load event or to the richtextbox that can be changed?  Is there a way to move rich text with a function or variable (is it just a string?) ?  Or am i just going about this whole thing in the wrong way?

VS 2015,C# Designer Process Crashes

New install of VS 2015 Community Edition Version 14.0.24720.00 Update 1, on a new Dell running Win 10 Pro, build 10586.

I created new C# Windows Universal Blank App. Opened "MainPage.xaml", see loading Designer prompt, then an unhandled exception occurs on the designer.  Error message is at the end of post.

No code has been added or changes made to the blank project.  The system is in Developer mode.

Have tried repairing and reloading Visual Studio.  Followed multiple MSDN and Google reports of similar errors, but found nothing that resolves problem.

Tried inputting a "Hello World" following this outline: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/dn765018.aspx and the app compiles without error, then crashes calling the debugger, with a message: "Unable to activate Windows Store app".

Any suggestions or ideas?

In my previous version, I could easily generated WMI classes from the management classes (below server explorer).

Now I upgraded to Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2015, and it seems to be missing! Did I forget to install a component?

Or is it just EOL?

Thanks for the info!

I cannot believe how difficult it is to get this answer. I am using vb and my solution is almost ready. I have a directory in my application. that contains necessary information for my project, and that is populated with other user files and reports. I've placed this  directory in my solution area I set my current directory (via a chdir command) to that area. Everything is swell except that I am using a windows path (eg,, c:\...\projects..), and of course that wont work when I deploy to my target website. So0000, how do I set the path?   I am reading a lot of seemingly complicated answers on how to do this, but thus far they have all been beyond my understanding. 

Anyone????

I am new to xamarin and trying to learn it using online materials. I have done the following environment setup in my laptop with Windows 10 OS.
1. Installed Visual Studio Enterprise 2015.
2. Downloaded and configured xamarin studio for VS 2015.

I am able to connect my Android device and debug the sample android app in the device.

But I am unable to debug the IOS app since I found that MAC is required for that and I dont have it as of now.

I have an iPhone 6s and would like know if it is possible to connect my iPhone device to my Window 10 laptop and have it show up in Visual Studio 2015 IDE to develop and debug my sample IOS app. If this is possible Can you also help me with the steps for the same.

Thanks,

Visual Studio 2015 WPF designer gives false errors

December 30, 2015, 9:02 pm

I tried asking this question in Stack Overflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34516507/upgrade-to-visual-studio-2015-gives-false-errors) without ay luck.

Defining a WPF combobox gives an error. Where the control should be in the designer, it says: "Set property 'System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush.Color threw an exception"

Down in the error list it says: "Color(#FF888888)' is not a valid value for property 'Color'."

I have a very simple window where the combo box is defines as:

        <ComboBox x:Name="cbCountry" Grid.Column="1"   VerticalAlignment="Bottom"  Height="28" FontSize="12"SelectionChanged="cbCountry_SelectionChanged" 

                  HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" IsEditable="True" StaysOpenOnEdit="True" IsManipulationEnabled="True"KeyUp="cbCountry_KeyUp" />

I finally narrowed it down to the Windows.Resources tag:

    <Window.Resources>

        <DataTemplate x:Key="CityTemplate">

            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">

                <Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Black">

                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding City}" />

                </Border>

            </StackPanel>

        </DataTemplate>

    </Window.Resources>

I tried removing one element at a time, starting with the BorderBrush without any luck. It was not until I removed the entire Windows.Resources tag that the error went away. Now with the error, it will still compile and run. It just craps out in the designer. Using Blend does the same thing. This project did not have this issue in Visual Studio 2012. It was only when I converted to VS 2015 does this appear. The issues appears in other defined windows, but this one is the simplest to recreate.

After migrating servers - trouble seeing web services from application

December 30, 2015, 10:32 am

We have a situation in which an error, quoted at the end of this post, appears when our asp.net c# application is forced to access the web services it uses.   The web services and application itself reside on the same server.  This was always the case, although the database resides elsewhere (and works fine).

What is critically important is that until we migrated to a newer server (both the web services and the application) we did not get this error.  We moved from a Windows 2003 system to a server 12 r2 system.  The problem appears to be that the application cannot see the web services after the migration and there are no hard-coded references to any servers in the application at all and web config files were updated.

Currently the program has been undesirably modified to avoid using web services so development can continue in other areas.  What is your advice on how to fix this?

[Win32Exception (0x80004005): The system cannot find the file specified] [SqlException (0x80131904): A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 52 - Unable to locate a Local Database Runtime installation. Verify that SQL Server Express is properly installed and that the Local Database Runtime feature is enabled.)] [ProviderIncompatibleException: The provider did not return a ProviderManifestToken string.]
