Debugging with Visual Studio 6 (VC++) under Windows 7 64-bit-Version

I must develop some older applications (for some older customers) with VC++ (Visual Studio 6). My actual environment is Windows 7 in the 64-bit - version.
So, an old developement-environment on in a new world.
Now I have the problem, that everytime i close a debugging-session (with shift f5 or stop debugging by the corresponding menu-entry or any other keystrokes), the IDE tells me: ".... myStupidExe.exe has exited with code (0)" but the corresponding console-windows stays, and stays, and stays and can't be killed either by itself nor by any process-tool (windows-task-manager, process-explorer e.g.).
Always first closing the IDE and than starting it again gives me new access to my "stupid.exe" and a new "stupid"-debugging-session.
Who is the name of the process, that takes the handle to my "stupid.exe" and lets a very normal vs60-debugging-process "alone" .
Can anybody help?

Hi,
I am not sure if for VS6 vs hosting process is available or not, but this sounds like it: the VS hosting process keeps a handle on your exe and it keeps running on the machine
More details about VS hosting process here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms185331(VS.80).aspx
To disable it, just go to Project Properties ->Debug tab and uncheck the option “Enable the Visual Studio hosting process”.
hope that this helps,
Alina

Cannot install Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Hi,
I'm trying to install Visual Studio 2013 under Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64. If it matters the Windows O/S is an image running under Parallels.
I've had Visual Studio installed on this machine before (I can't remember the version) but have uninstalled it.
I'm getting an error "Microsoft .NET Framework required for Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop - ENU".
I've been Googling this issue for hours, trying numerous things suggested, to no avail. Apparently it's a common error.
I've got the .Net Framework 4.5.1 installed. I've also reinstalled it and repaired the installation. I suspect the error message is a stupid red herring.
I'm at my wits end on this. Any advice on how to get this bug ridden swill to install?
P.S.: Clearly this is a known and highly frustrating issue for many people. Why can't Microsoft find the bug, fix it, and put an updated installer on their download site. Is this too much to ask?

You need to go to the MSDN website for Visual Studio 2013 found @

Move a Excel 2010 Dokument Addin Project (Visual Studio 2012) to another devleopment machine with Visual Studio 2012 , but Office 2013

Hi
we do have the following situation
on computer A there is a Excel Document Addin development project , Visual Studio 2012, Office 2010 installed. All works fine.
we would like to bring the project to another machine with Visual Studio 2012, but Office 2013 installed.
Visual Studio can not build the project. It says that the application is not installed on the machine (though Excel 2013 is installed , but not Excel 2010) It seems to have a problem with the
vbproj.
In other forums I found a hint that "Hostpackage = ..} needs to be set accordingly in the vbproj. I created then a "empty Excel-Addin project" under Visual Studio , looked at
the Hostpackage entry, put that into the vbproj of "problem project. It still does not work.
It would be great if anyone could help.
Thomas

Hello Eugene
Problem is that it says that projectboard (the name of the main project) can not be loaded. All other projects in the solution can be loaded. Strange thing is , now that I try to create a empty excel Project it says that according to Excel security settings
it can not be generated !?
I opened then Excel and set all Trust Center settings to "Default" - but no effect. I really have no idea what is wrong ..!?

Crystal Report Dll problem with Visual Studio 2005

I am using Crystal Reports with Visual Studio 2005. At one time there were two different version of Crystal Decision Dll in Global Assembly Cache (GAC). So I uninstalled both the versions and then only installed 10.2.3600.
I am facing the following error when building my application in visual studio.
The type 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument' exists in both 'c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\arms website\301a5b02\e03ad7d9\assembly\dl3\c30f5560\00f92427_3857ca01\CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.DLL'
and
'c:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_MSIL\CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine\10.2.3600.0__692fbea5521e1304\CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll'
I have only installed it in .Net Framework. For some reason it appears in the temp folder. I cannot delete it and when I renamed it after the next compile it came back again.
I would appreciate any help.

Thanks for the tip.
I installed CR XI R2 with SP2 and 2.1
There are few reports in the system they use to run fine but now when I try to run them I get the following error:
Failed to open the connection. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 4060 ] Failed to open the connection. C:\DOCUME1\SSheikh\LOCALS1\Temp\ZGA370 {71BFCD35-F652-48C8-896D-B93229A4D2C2}.rpt Details: [Database Vendor Code: 4060 ]
I understand that these reports run ok independently and on production machine as well; however when I try to run them from my development machine I get the above error.
I would appreciate help to resolve this. The code of the report is with report developer and I need to know what settings do I need to change where to be able to run the reports. Also I use my machine for deployment of application on the production server.
Thanks.

Could not install Visual Studio 2013 in Windows 7 via Boot Camp

Hi there,
For a intro to programming class, I was required to install Visual Studio Express for Windows Desktop on my machine. Because I use a MacBook Pro Retina 13 , I had to install a copy of Windows via Boot Camp. I decided to install a copy of Windows 7 as I had
a license with me on hand.
Unfortunately, I had trouble installing Visual Studio as it gives me a fatal error for Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 during installation

App.Xaml cannot be edited in design view(Visual Studio 2012 for Window Store).

The
Simple Application Walkthrough specifically instructs one to edit App.xaml (because it previously had you inject a defect by changing the name of the file StartupUri property points to). So that is the scenario, or one of them. I assume it is 'valid'
to rename MainWindow.xaml to whatever you want it to be.
So there should be some way in the IDE to fix this (short of changing the file name back to match StartupUri). What is it?
Like another person here, I just edited it with a text editor and reloaded it into VS. But...

I choose oracle database and oracle provider.
In server name I write the name of my computer, and i write the user and pass of the data base (sys or system) but it gives me this error: "ora-12514 listener doesnt know the asket for service in the description one of connection" (translated of Spanish)
what i have to write in server name? host, host:port, LISTENER,.... what?

SharePoint Connection not available with Visual Studio 2013

I've installed Visual Studio 2013 in my SharePoint 2010 environment. When I try to add the existing SharePoint Connections I've used in Visual Studio 2010 there is always the same error: Remote SharePoint site connections are not supported. The SharePoint
site is located at the same server, I'm able to access the Central Administration with Visual Studio 2013, but I can't access my development SharePoint Web Application.
I'm sure I do have access to the configuration database, in Visual Studio 2010 I'm able to delete and add SharePoint Connections without any problems. The URL of the development SharePoint connection (like sp1.sharepoint.contoso.com) is not named like
the URL of the Central Administration (like servername:5000). The port of my development SharePoint is 80, but I can't access with servername:80 too. My account is in the group of the local administrators, Visual Studio is started as Administrator
and my account is a SharePoint farm administrator and additionally a site collection administrator of all site collections in my SharePoint web application.
Any idea what's wrong with this SharePoint connections?
Thanks in advance. Georg

Can you try the following workaround and see if it helps? First try adding host entry for your server name and if that works change it to sp1.sharepoint.contoso.com.

I understand your situation is different than the one mentioned in the blog but given you seem to have all the permission so may be you try and see if the error is because of above issue. Actually if above does not work (assuming your are on your development
environment), try adding your account to DB Owner on your site collection database as mentioned here.
