Visual Studio - They Fixed a Bug
-
Since I often whine about Microsoft and their bugs it is time to give credit where it is due. They actually fixed one that had been really annoying me. A couple of revs ago they broke the Batch Build option so it would not retain its selections. That is now fixed in the 17.4.4 release and I am really, really glad to see it since I relied on it heavily. This version also improves support for handling multiple repositories in one solution. Thankfully, I have found no new issues with it. This has been a very welcome update.

Paul Sanders. If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter - Blaise Pascal. Some of my best work is in the undo buffer.

I have been curious for some time re/ the number of developers working on Visual Studio . May I inquire if anyone here happens to know . Also may I add I am always dumb-founded at the looooong list of fixes yet to be implemented . I also wonder re/ the total size of Visual Studio e.g. number of lines of code . I am glad I am not one of the VS developers as the complexity boggles my mind . May I also say I am often surprised simple enhancements never are made one in particular which annoys me and can find no logical reason for though it is a common Windows UI i.e. to wit in order to open a Menu item drop down list it is common to be required to click upon it which to my mind makes no sense as all is necessary it seems is merely to hover over it . Countless clicks have been wasted in this manner .

I've used VS for many years - mostly VB and VB.NET, including a pretty big .NET system controlling a multi-million € scientific machine. Last couple of years I've been using it for Arduino C/C++ stuff. I guess I haven't been stretching VS, as all the bugs I've come across have been of my own making.

There are a few others I have reported that have not been fixed, another that they stated was "behavior by design" which, as far as I am concerned, is bad design. Oh well.

Now if I can only get my broken Visual Studio Installer to work. The only option I seem to have is to uninstall VS2022 and re-install it. :(
