I can't support makefiles ... Too old school :) I almost only get that with typed DataSets, because they gen so much code. If that is the case, or if you have just tons of your own code, break out the stuff that you don't need to debug, and do a release build. Then just reference that assembly from where you still need to debug.
Agree with the frustration factor, but still love VS.NET _________________________ casey http://www.brains-N-brawn.com -----Original Message----- From: Moderated discussion of advanced .NET topics.

GUI generates are ok for small - medium projects but for large progets Install C++ makefiles and build from a batch file. Ben PS: I always found that if you use the default locations ( eg bin under each project) you have a lot less trouble otherwise I would use makefiles. > -----Original Message----- > From: Moderated discussion of advanced .NET topics. > [mailto:ADVANCED-DOTNET@;DISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM]On Behalf Of Dave Adair > Sent: Thursday, 31 October 2002 5:50 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] Tearing my hair out - I am thoroughly > disgusted with VS.NET > > > WHEN is Microsoft going to fix the problem with VS.NET where it cannot > build the solution because it is locking DLLs that are >64k in size?
