    Seriously, today is the same thing. Change the XAML, the app either won't compile ( out of memory exception was thrown ), or once I restart the IDE and it compiles, it sometimes crashes, in the top InitializeComponent call, with an arithmetic overflow. Rebuilding the app without changing the code, runs just fine. All the people who think that is acceptable, raise your hands.

      What made you think anything had changed from yesterday, or are you just getting rid of todays angst early. Surely you have something new to bitch about or are you spending so much time fighting VS that you have not had the opportunity to dip into something new? Is the memory issue only due to using a virtual environment maybe.

        No, it happens when I run on a PC, also.

          I sympathise - especially as we get out of memory exceptions on build frequently in 2005 - and the MS support site says this is a bug in 2008 - and happens MORE FREQUENTLY in 2008!

              The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. If it failed yesterday and the day before, why are you so pissed off it doesn't work today? Did you expect the stars and planets to be more favourably aligned?

              Cheers, Vıkram.

                You should have had a workaround by now. So move on!

                  Perhaps a MFC rewrite?
