What I hate about VS.NET
-
For the past 5-6 years I have been editing my files and when the file is checked in I type the first character, it bleeped, threw up the checkout box, I hit enter and typed the rest in. Now, I start typing and all the damn text goes into their checkout edit box, including the CR. I would like to shoot the idiot who thought of that. Its Ok if you realise the file is checked out, but if you have a whole load of files open you cant tell which are checked out and which are not. Why didnt they give any feedback, this is VISUAL Studio, maybe a red LH window border or something so I can at least see that a dialog is going to pop up...
Hell I thought it was funny .....
Yeah I hate when that happens. Specially when you are tyring to fix some sort of a production bug under tremendous pressure and that damn box shows up and hitting enter does nothing. Drives me nuts. I almost always hand code, so don't really miss the old wizards in VS 6.0 and have no clue about the new ones in the .Net IDE. Another thing that drives me nuts and actually has nothing to do with the .Net IDE is that my stupid antivirus software has a script blocker. So I cannot hit help or else the IDE crashes. It also crashes each time I shut down the IDE. Shutting down the script blocker does not seem to help. I have to turn it off, tell it not to start automatically, and then reboot. What a pain. Stupid McAfee......

What? No Brain Wave Detection software? So how is the weather like in the Stone Age? Need some more stones to make your ahem, weapons? If you want I can send you an ass-load. ;P

Hehe, it rocks my boat. :) I like the GUI except for a couple of annoying things. The one which I'm currently very annoyed with is that it re-arranges the class view and editor views when you add properties and methods to COM interfaces. Sucks really bad if you have many interfaces and classes. It keeps re-scrolling the class view. :( Bad design of the automation classes I'd say. Other than that, I have no real problems with VS.NET. I like the scriptability of VS.NET, which is way better than VC6. So, by all means, call be wannabe roxor haxor programmer. I don't mind. :-D As long as I get my monthly pay check. :rolleyes: -- Nicotine free: day 3
