Alien Assembly Search
-
I have a general R&D solution I use to fiddle and explore various technicalities in. I add little disposable projects here and there as I need to explore some CLR or language feature or something. I only have one project at a time configured to build, the one I'm busy on, so I don't get dependency problems etc. So, I add a little WinForms project to test aspects of inheritence, and I hit F5 to run it, but this damn Assembly Search dialogue pops up, defaulted to a TestDriven.NET assembly. I check the key mapping for F5 and it's normal. I exit VS and start again, with the same damn Assembly Search dialogue invading my precious peace. I disable TestDriven.NET and on trying again I still get this hell spawn dialogue popping up. Then I notice I have an AssemblySearch project in the solution, :-O, and it's set as the Startup Project :-O I didn't expect it do do anything because it's excluded from the solution build, but, it wasn't building, just running.

That happens. ;) I discovered that same thing a while back, the thing that bothers me most is having to mark side projects (tests) to no build or vise-versa. It is irritating to have all subprojects rebuilt when I only want to rebuild the current one, especially if the current one is trying to test a piece of code that is causing an error in one of the other projects.
