It can easily be made using the good old copy con command: c:\sob\csmf\pos\analpore>copy con: .wtf you are a useless pos ^Z 1 file(s) copied. etc. :)

Yes, it does happen, however, it does not allow you when you try to create directly through Windows Explorer. As it allows, it definately does not look like an OS Restriction :)

Today I found another VS bug. Again present in both VS2008 and VS2010 flavors. :sigh: Not that it is a bad bug, it is purely cosmetic, but you would expect a company like MS to be professional and to find and fix a bug in the last 4 or more years (perhaps it does the same on older VS too, I dont have any to test with). Anyways, the bug: Open any file whose (file)name starts with a
.(a full-stop, eg .wtf). :doh: PS: I tried to find a report on the MS Connect site, but found no results. I could report this bug, but like MS I can't be bothered. Update: Here is what I and some of the others are seeing. The tooltip shows the correct text. http://i.imgur.com/zDUKB.png[^]xacc.ide

Are you referring to the bug where the filename does not appear in the tab(only the path)? Maybe they are using some open source code in there and it is respecting the fact that on Linux, files with names starting with "." are considered "hidden" files.

Of course, you could just name files like normal people, and avoid this problem altogether.

The problem being? I opened the file and edited it and then saved it. I id not find anything unusual except the tab title.

How did you manage to create a file named .wtf in the first place? Explorer does not let me do that.
pick one: - DOS - Command Prompt - most applications - CreateFile etc etc. For a moment you sounded like a computer user. :omg:

I think you stretched it too far.

as a developer, you would have to. It is an essential part of testing. :)

Quite easy to rename from a command prompt.

Alright - when was the last time *you* accounted for filenames that start with a dot? If you ask me, there's nothing wrong with the IDE (in this instance).
