Created Issue: Got a strange message upon clicking any context menu item (e.g. "Build") [14170]

immitev — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 09:07:47 GMT

The message is: "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Set Associations control panel."

Then nothing seems to happen.

OS = Windows Vista

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Created Issue: Runtime error when editor not found

ThomasArdal — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 06:00:34 GMT

When specifying an editor exe file through the Configurator, the double click action in the error list fails, if the specified editor does not exist.

Commented Feature: vdproj should be supported by using devenv

lextm — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:58:26 GMT

vdproj projects are not supported by msbuild. MSBuildShellExtension could support this filetype by executing devenv.exe rather than msbuild.exe.

If this should be supported, MSBuildShellExtension needs to parse the output from calling devenv, in order to show errors and warnings from the build.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: lextm **

MSBuildShellExtension should focus on MSBuild.exe, other than devenv.exe which only is installed with the paid Visual Studio users. Maybe someone can create a separate DevEnvShellExtension somewhere.

CLOSED ISSUE: Can't use MsBuildExtension for Vista Home Premium, VS2008 Express and .Net 3.5

ThomasArdal — Tue, 27 May 2008 06:58:03 GMT

I get this comment:

"Build project could not be resolved. This error is caused by a poorly created API for MSBuild tools like MSBuildShellExtension. Sorry :("

When I click on this error in the Error List:

Filformatets version kan ikke genkendes. MSBuild kan kun læse løsningsfiler mellem versionerne 7.0 og 9.0 begge inklusive.

What is wrong?

/JRO
Comments: This where never an issue. You have to configure the tool to build with .NET 3.5 manually. I would like to be able to figure out which version of .NET to use automatically in a future version.

COMMENTED ISSUE: Can't use MsBuildExtension for Vista Home Premium, VS2008 Express and .Net 3.5

pjerrotluna — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 20:34:22 GMT

This is fixed.
I have to go in the configuration and for all extensions choose v3.5. Then every compiles for .Net 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008 C# Express.
Please mark this issue fixed, Thomas Ardal.
And thanks again for this amazing tool.

CREATED ISSUE: Column reorder should be supported

ThomasArdal — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 14:14:25 GMT

The order should be saved as well.

CREATED ISSUE: Column width in error list logger should be saved

ThomasArdal — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 14:13:34 GMT

Same as window size.

CLOSED FEATURE: MSBuildShellExtension should support .NET 3.5

ThomasArdal — Sat, 01 Mar 2008 08:56:07 GMT

MSBuildShellExtension should support .NET 3.5

CLOSED FEATURE: Error list window should show number of errors and warnings in title

ThomasArdal — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 19:15:45 GMT

This way you can minimize the window and still track any errors and/or warnings while building and you doing something else.

CLOSED ISSUE: Error list should show before letting the build continue

ThomasArdal — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 19:15:12 GMT

The build starts before showing the error list window, which can cause some weird errors where warnings are displayed, even though the warnings button is disabled, the error list window do not show on small projects etc.

Show window before letting build continue.

CLOSED ISSUE: Runtime error in configurator if extensions is selected before targets

ThomasArdal — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 19:14:10 GMT

If the user clicks the extensions icon before having selected the targets icon, the configurator crashes.

CREATED FEATURE: Import/Export settings to/from Configurator

ThomasArdal — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 12:20:29 GMT

It would be cool to be able to export settings from the configurator and import the export file in a configurator on another machine.

CREATED ISSUE: Double click on item in error list should show the file in the choosen editor even though the build file is not known

ThomasArdal — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 14:25:47 GMT

When double clicking a file in the error list window, an error dialog is shown if MSBuildShellExtension cannot find the buildfile containing the failing file. If the buildfile cannot be found, the choosen tool should open with the file instead.

Example: If choosen Notepad as default editor, and build file cannot be found, an error dialog is shown. In this case, the tool could open the failing file in Notepad directly.

CLOSED ISSUE: Verbosity on targets is not saved

ThomasArdal — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 14:57:20 GMT

If another verbosity is choosen on a target, the new verbosity is never saved.
