Wouldn't it be nice if...

Microsoft would have a windows explorer context menu on .vcxproj files that did a "rebuild" and showed you the syntax error log. I don't know about you guys, but I'm using vc2010 and the thing is just crashing on me constantly X| I've tried rescanning the solution and all that. Yeah, well, I guess it's free.

Approved. Have it on my desk by Friday.

There is lots of things Express won't do for you: easily build mixed language projects, build unmanaged apps targeting x64, have a peek at assembly code, use MFC, etc. :)

AFAIK the only thing the express versions can't do is create VS add-ins. They also have less Project/Item Templates although you can create the missing ones yourself.

It is not that I want to use MFC, I much prefer .NET, however I have had problems when downloading some CP articles and code, I couldn't always rebuild the app due to the absence of MFC support. :)

Ever tried MSBuild ? Did you realize as a coder you CAN 'program' something to appear on the context menu, and when clicked, actually do something?

That's aaaaaalmost exactly what i was lookin' for :) The options are nice, but it'd be nicer if there was an "auto-start" option that skipped the options screen. I don't really need to see the options I already picked and also don't particularly need to see the green "in progress bar"... But it beats bootin visual studio. I'll be usin it - thanks!
