Visual Studio 2013 does not rebuild all code resulting in old code deployed through wsp

I recently converted my SharePoint 2010 project from Visual Studio 2010 to Visual Studio 2013. I have the Premium version with Update 1.
I quickly noticed that 2013 has bugs. For instance I could get a build error out of nowhere while developing, stating that a method recently added to Class
A used by Class B, does not exist. The only way to resolve is to restart Visual Studio. Sometimes a rebuild would do the trick too.
I can live with such quirks as a developer. The big problem is that it does not build the latest version if you are using the "Publish to File System"
to get a wsp for deployment on another server.
I've had problems with incomplete builds since my first deploy with wsp built by Visual Studio 2013, but I was not able to pinpoint it with certainty until
last night.
I have two classes used by a timer job. In a new version they back up some files after using them. After upgrading with the new wsp, I restarted the timer
job service on all servers and ran the job, but the files did not back up. So I went and added a log statement to the backup code of one class and did another clean/rebuild/publish to file system from Visual Studio. I upgraded using the new wsp and then restarted
the timer job service on all servers. When I ran the timer job service, the class where I added the log statement backed up the files it should. The other class still did not. So I added a log statement to this class as well and deployed that. Then this class
started to backup files too.
So I conclude that Visual Studio 2013 is failing at its core in a very dangerous way leaving assemblies built in an unknown, incomplete limbo state.
I am downgrading all projects to Visual Studio 2012.
This post is mainly to share my experience with the community, but if someone at Microsoft wants to investigate the issue, here is a suggestion on how to reproduce:
Have Visual Studio in Debug build.
Make a change to a class in a SharePoint project.
Deploy the change to a local SharePoint installation.
Change to Release build.
Use Publish to file system to get a wsp. Open this wsp, copy the assembly, reflect and investigate to see that code change is actually there.

  • Visual Studio 2013 - does not recognize asp tag in website project? ...

    Hello,
    I inherited a web site that uses user controls to set the pages beginning and end tags in all *.aspx pages.
    Below is the typical structe of an .aspx page:
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <%@ Page Language="VB" WarningLevel="1" Explicit="true" Strict="true" %>
    <%@ Register TagPrefix="pt" TagName="page_beg" src="/inc/pt_page_beg_1.ascx" %>
    <%@ Register TagPrefix="pt" TagName="page_end" src="/inc/pt_page_end_1.ascx" %>
    <pt:page_beg id="page_beg" title="Welcome" runat="server" />
    <div>
    Other markup for main body goes here
    <asp:Literal id="lit_1" text="Some Text" runat="server"/>
    </div>
    <pt:page_end runat="server" />
    The user control "page_beg" outputs an <html lang="xx"> tag where xx is a selected language / culture, along with
    the head, title and body tags in addition to other tags depending on various properties set in the control.
    The user control "page_end" simply writes out the footer of the page along with the body end and html end tags.
    Now, when I load any .aspx page in Visual Studio, all of the <asp tags are underlined and when I hover the popup text displayed is:
    "Unrecognized tag prefix or device filter 'asp'."
    If I enter a body tag near the top of the page the error disappears (but obviously, I cannot leave a stray body tag in the page).
    My question is how do I get Visual Studio to recognize the asp tags in this type of scenario?

    I'd try them over here.

  • "Visual Studio Online does not support your browser. Please upgrade to a supported browser to ensure a fantastic experience" message with IE 11

    Hi All,
    I have recently migrated from TFS 2010 to TFS 2013. When developers are accessing TFS Web interface from IE 11 they are getting message "Visual Studio Online does not support your browser. Please upgrade to a supported browser to ensure
    a fantastic experience!" and page is not showing up correctly. I can open Web interface from Chrome without any issues. Also I figured out if I open Developer Tools (F12) in IE Web Interface also works fine and screwed up again
    when I close Developer Tools.
    What can be wrong with IE11 settings?
    Regards,
    Oleg

  • Edge 2013 does not discover all Exchange servers in the org

    We have the following co-existence setup:
    Edge 2013 sitting on the DMZ.
    1 CAS 2013
    1 MBX 2013
    1 CAS/HUB 2010
    1 MBX 2010
    After creating a new edge subscription on the edge server and successfully completing it on the 2013 mbx server, when I run get-exchangeserver on the edgeserver I get only the 2010 CAS and the 2013 MBX. 2010 MBX and 2013 CAS are missing.
    All mailflow is working fine, yet if I shutdown the 2010 CAS, incoming mail flow stops, because for the edge server the 2010 CAS is the nexthopdomain, it doesn't find it and gives a 4.4.1 error in the SMTP receive protocol logs.
    I have tried re-creating the subscription several times, I tried forcefullsync, it syncs fine yet it does not discover all the servers.
    The firewall on the edge is disabled and in the internal servers as well, just to be sure that there is no communication error.
    When the edge server receives an email from the internet it sends it to the 2010 CAS/HUB server and then to the 2013 MBX server.
    Also the documentation from technet states the following for Edge and messages arriving from external senders.
    Mailbox server and Client Access server installed on different computers   In this configuration, the Client Access server is bypassed for inbound mail flow.
    Mail flows from the Transport service on the Edge Transport server to the Transport service on the Mailbox server.
    So in my config, the CAS should be bypassed, but yet that's not happening. The "proxy to a CAS server" option on the connectors is not enabled.
    I believe all the above would be resolved, If I could make the Edge server discover all of the servers in the org.
    Ideas?

    Hi Dimitris,
    Base on my knowledge, I think this is a normal behavior on Edge server. Since the computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed doesn't have access to Active Directory.
    We will create an Edge Subscription from mailbox server(Exchange 2013) or hub server(Exchange 2010). So the Edge server will only connect to these servers with transport role.
    According to the Edge Subscriptions document, it said:
    “The Edge Subscription process provisions the credentials used to establish a secure LDAP connection between Exchange 2013 Mailbox servers and a subscribed
    Edge Transport server.”

    Hi,
    This issue might be caused because your VS2008 did not yet install BIDS report project. So, please open the New Project dialogue to check if there is Business Intelligence Development Studio component in the Project Types pane in your vs 2008. If it
    is not there, install this component (can from the SQL server intallation client tools) so that you can open Reporting Services 2008 .rptproj files in the VS2008.

  • Search for mail in Outlook 2013 does not have all emails in result.

    Hi, we have a user that tries to search for a sertain mail in her mailbox, and when she searches, a few mail comes up, but the one she knows is there, and that fits the search pattern, is not listed in the results.
    We have tried to reindex the database the user was on, we have moved her to another database, and none of these have given us the result we want.
    We have also removed the checkmark in "Search" in Outlook for "Improve search speed by limiting the number of results shown".
    If she does the same search in OWA or Outlook 2010, the result is as expected, but in Outlook 2013, it is not.
    Has anyone experienced this, and if so, what could be done to solve it?
    Google(Bing) produces very little results that are relevant to this for me.
    Hope someone here has an answer :)

  • Visual Studio profiler does not show results for XAML + DirectX project

    The case is simple: 
    1) The solution consists of 3 projects:  2 C# ones  (C# XAML project + C# library project) and one C++ runtime component initially created by the wizard, as this is a DirectX project.
    2) "Start Windows Phone application analysis"  runs OK, but when stopped  no profiling results are shown. The message is "0 total samples collected", "No call tree data is available".
    How can this problem be fixed?  What are the assumed reasons?

    (I know the thread is old - but I have found some threads on the net asking about this problem, but nowhere answered, so I'll rectify this here)
    Hey,
    do you happen to have been profiling the *release build* ?
    If so, try this:
    In solution explorer, right-click on the native C++ project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Debugging
    The top-most field "Generate Debugging Info" is probabyl empty, which is default for release build. But debugging info is needed to sample-profile functions! So select "Yes" there, and make sure the next option, "generate program
    database file" has a sensible entry.
    For me, this did it.

  • SSRS Report Designer in Visual Studio 2013

    Hi all. Does anyone know what I need to install to be able to open rptproj projects in VS2013? I found a page which says it is possible, but it doesn't go on to explain what I need to install to make it happen.
    It seems that every version of VS that comes out this is a problem. They never make it clear and you end up spending hours trying to find out how to do it...
    Thanks

    Hi BuckBuchanan,
    If we want to create SQL Server Business intelligence projects on Visual Studio, we need install SSDT-BI for Visual Studio. However, the SSDT-BI for Visual Studio 2013 has not been release, so we cannot create SQL Server Business intelligence projects on
    Visual Studio 2013. The commercial release of SSDT-BI is expected to be based on the newer Visual Studio 2013 in conjunction with the commercial release of the SQL Server 2014. For the detail information about it, please refer to following link.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/dataplatforminsider/archive/2013/11/13/microsoft-sql-server-data-tools-update.aspx
    Currently, if you want to create Business intelligence projects, you can install Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012.

  • How to create a three state approval workflow in SharePoint 2013 using visual studio 2013

  • Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows - InitializeComponent() does not contain a definition issue

    Hi,
    I have recently downloaded Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows (Windows Store App version), with Update 1.
    I create a blank app. I right-click on InitializeComponent() in the MainPage.xaml.cs and select Go To Definition. It brings me to the .g.i.cs file where this method resides.
    I go into the designer for MainPage.xaml and create a grid of 2 rows and 2 columns (all at 1*). I add one button, doesn't matter where. I double click on that button to add a click method to MainPage.xaml.cs. Without entering anything into the button click
    method, I scroll up and InitializeComponent() has an error and tells me there is not definition, even though I was looking at the definition a minute ago. I found I could unload the project and reload it and InitializeComponent() would have the definition
    in the .g.i.cs file but as soon as I add another button click or anything else I run into the same error. It seems as if the .g.i.cs file is not automatically regenerating, or it is being deleted all together when the button click method is added to the xaml.cs
    file.
    Everything I have done up to this point is very vanilla. I installed VS '13 Express for Windows, didn't change any VS setting, created a project and ran into this issue. I installed Update 1 thinking there might be a fix from the update--no luck. The xaml
    file Build Action is Page and the Xaml.cs file is Compile.
    I have tried deleting the MainPage.xaml file, after the creation of a project, and adding a new MainPage file with the added templates VS wants to include, and I still run into the same issue.
    I have searched for answers the past few days but haven't found anything that addresses my issue (most of what I found addresses VS '10 but their InitializeComponent() issues aren't the same as mine). Any help the MSDN community can provide would be
    a great help. If worst comes to worst, I will re-install VS and see if that corrects it--this would be a last-ditch effort though.
    Thank you for any help you may be able to provide

    Intellisense has a bug in VS2013 where it doesn't recognize InitializeComponent when you start working on the XAML.  My feeling is that if you try to compile this app, it will run fine (as long as there are no actual errors).

    If my reply answers your question, please mark this post as answered.
    NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined
    objects and unknown namespaces.

  • Visual studio 2013 update 4 will not install

    I am currently running visual studio 2013 Version 3, and i recently just downloaded the update 4 file.  I've tried installing it multiple times but all it does is show the splash screen and then wink out.  Checked the task processes and its not
    running.  I've checked the event log, and nothing interesting in there either.  I copied the file to another machine and it ran fine, so i know the file is good.  I've also downloaded the DVD ISO version of the updater from MSDN, with the same
    results.  Am i missing something?  Is there a different way i can debug this to find out why it's not working for me?  Thanks for any help!
