A Weblog by Ben Goodger

October 5, 2007

I guess this is what things like Twitter are for, but I’m not into all the latest web2.0 guff, so…

Visual Studio is a piece of crap. I am handling weird patch application fallout:

  • open 10 files using multi-select in Solution Explorer.
  • select the first
  • find the string “Properties:”
  • select everything from just before Properties: to the end of file
  • press delete
  • save and close
  • repeat for each file

Not only does it get slower and slower for each g-d’ed file, at the end of it when I do Ctrl+O to open another file, the whole thing locks up and after 5 minutes of hang I kill it.

I will install Orcas later today to see if it’s any better as the commenter on my previous post suggested it might.
