Hi,

When I open a large solution in VS2003. I get over 2000 errors in my task
list. The text "Empty" afters in the Class and Member dropdowns. If I close
I get the Microsoft Error dialog, and VS2003 reloads.

Any thoughts
Tim
 
Hi Tim,

Thanks for your post. I reviewed your description carefully, and I think
more information is needed before moving forward:

1. Does the problem occur to a specific project or to all projects?

2. What's the content of errors in task list?

3. Could you please tell me the detailed message in the Error dialog?

In addition, I suggest you to reboot your system into Windows Safe-Mode and
see if the solution can be opened properly.

I look forward to your response.

Thanks for the reply.

I have just read your reply, so immediately opened VS2003 and got the
following error.

Visual Basic .NET compiler is unable to recover from the following error:
System Error &Hc0000005& (Visual Basic internal compiler error)
Save your work and restart Visual Studio .NET.

However I do not normally get an error dialog appearing.
I normally get 1000-2000 errors in the task list. These error include
"Accept Button is not a member of 'frmABC'", "namespace or type 'Base' for
imports 'Base' cannot be found"
Along with "Empty" in then Class and Member dropdowns.

Also when the solution loads OK, in the Solution Explorer some inherited
forms are not being handled as forms, for example the icon is incorrect, and
the view designer option is missing.

I found these in the event veiwer

Fault bucket 44641920.

and

Faulting application devenv.exe, version 7.10.3077.0, faulting module
msvb7.dll, version 7.10.3077.0, fault address 0x000b6c80.

Hi Tim

On your final point about inherited forms not being handled correctly, do
these forms inherit from classes marked as must inherit? If so, AFAIK the
designer does not currently handle such inherited forms, so the modified
icons would seem consistent with that.

I can confirm that I frequently get the type of errors that you describe,
which can vanish simply by building the solution a second time, so I look
forward to any explanation that anyone else can offer.

Hi Tim,

I reviewed the errors, it seems that it is similar to another thread:

http://groups.google.com.au/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&threadm=OpzSe
IzGDHA.2964%40tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl&rnum=5&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Ddotnet%2Berrors
%2Brebuild%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26selm%3DOpzSeIzGDHA.
2964%2540tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl%26rnum%3D5

Please check if they are of the same sympton. If so, it is caused by a bug
in VS .NET 2003 and there is a hot fix for it.

I am standing by for your response.

Sorry to butt in to this thread, but I have looked at the other thread
myself and it describes exactly the problems I get on every other build of
my solution.

If there is a hot fix, could you please tell me the reference and how I can
get it? This problem is currently the bane of my life and slows development
tremendously.

Thank you very much.
