C# - Visual Studio 2008 Breakpoint Is Not Working?
Apr 23, 2010
I am working on an ASP.NET project and I cannot make the breakpoints work! The project does not stop where I place a breakpoint. It does not seem to matter where I place the breakpoint.
I am in debug mode; I am using IE 8, Windows 7 OS;
I'm having problem in using breakpoint. I'm creating a website in VS2005 in ASP.Net/C# language. but the problem is i can't seem to use the breakpoint.After putting the toggle breakpoint, and i clicked start debugging. it won't hit the breakpoint. but it will start running.however at the breakpoint (it should be a big red dot), it changed to something like this.then the program will continue to run but not hitting the breakpoint. i tried my program using my friend vs2005, the breakpoint can be hit...does anyone able to help me to solve the problem? i tried to search the solution in google and here. but seems like the solution doesn't work.
I want to F11 through a button click event but the breakpoint I have set inside it doesn't halt code execution. I can see the shortest of pauses on the breakpoint itself but the code only stops executing at the next breakpoint outside the event (which is the page load ie. a postback). Why can't I step through the code in the button click event?
I want to make spider charts like this one: [URL] I want to know can I prepare it using reporting service 2008? I am using sql server 2008 as the database and working with Visual studio 2008.
So there is a usercontrol that has some textboxes on it, but for the life of me I can't find how in the world it's getting set. Where ever it is, it's no where obvious. So my question is this. In the debugger is there anyway to pause execution of the code when the value of textbox1 changes. But remember, I don't know where it's happening. The textbox is not referenced anywhere by name, so it's obviously happening by use of some kind of generic loop through the controls on the page.
I am debugging an ASP.Net C# application in Visual Studio 2010, the application is running and execution is currently stopped at a breakpoint. How can I stop the page execution without "Terminate All" or killing the debugging process altogether, similar to what would happen if an unhandled exception was thrown? The "Break All Cntl+Alt+Break" option is grayed out in the Debug menu.
I want to stop the app from running but not have to go through a compile/start again. EDIT: I want execution to stop, not break, so that the page finishes loading and I don't continue running the application from the breakpoint forward. I've looked through the Breakpoints panel, the Debug menu and have right clicked all over but still haven't found the right option.
Is there any tool for Visual Studio 2008 which can reformat ASPX code to make it more presentable (eg insert line breaks, format the lines so they wrap when necessary, etc)?
I have an application in Visual Studio 2008. I have been working with it for some time. Today, suddenly, it will not debug, or more specifically it does not stop at the breakpoints I created in Visual Studio. It just ignores them. I tested the break points by adding one at the opening of the Page_Load event and nothing. If I put in a mistake on purpose the application will build, the internet explorer opens, and gives me an error report. It has never done this before. Usually it stops IE from opening and gives me a list of errors at the bottom of the VS screen. I want my old VS back. I don't see how this could have changed it but I'll mention the things I've worked on recently. I've been trying to configure the session states in the web.config page, and then recently I started a new web page with a conection to a database and gridview. I have restarted VS and nothing has changed.
I know this is working correctly beacuse when I publish my website to my hosting provider, and request a resource in a protected directory, and I am not currently authenticated, I get automatically redirected to my login page and then once successfully authenticated granted access and redirected back to the sure *.aspx file in my protected directory (assuming I am authorized for those resources).
So that is working no problem.
However, when I run this from visual studio 2008 (F5) in debug mode, I am not being required to authenticate. It simply serves up the protected resource without asking for my credentials.
If I put a [PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Authenticated = true)] on a BLL class method, it will throw an security exception, but the page that is calling it is in a secure directory and I am never asked to authenticate using the login page.
I am closing and re-opening brosers, clearing cookies, etc..., but no matter what I do I am not automatically redirected to the login page, and the secure page when I launch from visual Studio running on the embedded local host. Thiis working perfectly externally, same build, same web.config, pointing to the same database, on the hosting provider. (yes, eventually, I will be using dev/test/prod db configurations to test, but for now for simplicity I am keeping it the same)
Not only is it maddening, but worse yet, it would obviously make testing this application impossible after the initial release.
nfortunately, I can't get my breakpoints to work when in debug mode in Visual Studio 2008 (ASP.NET 3.5, Windows 7, IIS7). The website compiles and opens in debug mode, but the breakpoints themselves generate the following error message:"The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document."There are some recommended solutions online, but for various reasons, either they haven't applied or I haven't been able to make them work. I've been trying to find the solution for about 12 hours now, and I'm getting desperate.(Note 1: This problem is specific to this website. I do have other websites that I open in VS2008 where the breakpoints work fine.)(Note 2: There is only one website/project associated with this problem. This website does not have multiple projects.)
can Visual Studio 2008 be All-In-One tool to integrate source code continuously from team members, build, unit test?
Having used Visual Studio Team Edition 2005, unit testing each method within VS itself. I strongly believe that it is feasible to add-on tools. Example ankhsvn tool to use SVN from Visual studio [URL]
In my investigating i have come across number of tools(shown below) to use with Visual Studio 2008 professional
Development tool:- Visual Studio 2008 professional using Subversion as source control tool. Continuous Integration:- Hudson or Cruise control Build tool:- NAnt Testing:- NUnit, Selinium As Visual Studio 2008 can be used for unit testing I think NUnit is out of consideration.
In the same way i would like to have any other tools/add-ons to Visual studio to implement continuous integration, building and unit testing. This process should be automated such a way source code between team members is continuously integrated, built and unit testing is done as configured.
Objective is to use few number of tools as add-on to Visual Studio or achieve most from Visual studio itself (example unit testing). Visual Studio should be all in one tool.
I am aware that Team Foundation Server best suits my requirement, but it is out of scope due to its cost.
(A colleague helped me answer this so I will post the question and answer...)When I try to debug an ASP.NET app, I am getting "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. The source code is different then the original version" and no matter what I do or how many times I build, kill the web server, kill the browser, restart Visual Studio, etc.
I just recently upgrade my asp.net web project from visual studio 2005 to visual studio 2010. The upgrade was successful with no problems however im missing some features with this project. The One Click Publish feature(which is greyed out) in the header area of Visual Studio 2010 and the Add Config Transforms feature which is no where to be seen when you right click on web.config. When i create a new web project straight from visual studio 2010, these options work fine.
I have VS 2008 Professional Edition.....I want to test a function like this:
public int getIdByName(string name) { var item=from x in DATAB where x.name=name select x.id; . . return idValue; }
now I test end I have:
[TestMethod()] public getIdByNameTest() { string name="Bob" int expected = 1; int actual; actual = ClassGET.getIdByName(name); Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual); Assert.Inconclusive("Verify the correctness of this test method."); }
The error in "test run" is:
Failed ......[Class]....... Test method threw exception: System.ArgumentException: The specified named connection is either not found in the configuration that is not for use with the EntityClient provider or thought is invalid
How can I ensure that web application converted from 2003 visual studio to 2008 visual studio
to have two files as it is when create a web file in visual studio 2008.The web application is in Chsarp. I have converted these filesfrom 2003 to 2008 but they still have three files each.
i am downloading thr Visual Stuio 2008 Professional Version from microsoft website which is a 3.1GB software and a trial version which expired after 90 days, i want to know this trail version includes everything ?
i am confused by reading this on the VS2008 download page :
"Instructions

If VS 2008 and VWD 2008 are both installed on the same machine, will they both use the same Projects folder to keep my projects in?If so, can I open the projects and run them interchangeably with VS2008 and VWD 2008? This is the folder that is located at " User>Documents>Visual Studio 2008>Projects
I have upgraded a Visual Studio 2005 Web Site in a 32 bit server to Visual Studio 2008 maintaining the same 2.0 framework in a 64 bit server with Windows 2008 R2 Server. The Web Site has several class libraries.
After porting to Visual Studio 2008 2.0 Framework using the Upgrade Wizard, I found that I was unable to hit a break point in the Project code behind files while I was able to in the class libraries. The bin folder has the dlls and the corresponding pdb files for the class libraries. I did start the Web site as an Administrator and made sure whole bunch of IIS7 properties are properly set.
I tried to rebuild the solution as a Web Application in Visual Studio 2008 and gave up that approach as I faced hundreds of error messages pointing to missing references and namespaces inspite of adding whole lot of references and namespaces to the Web.
