hi,
visual studio 2008 (winxp64sp2) crashes when i open the find window (ctrl+f), even when no solution is opened.
when i uncheck the start checkbox in tools->addinmanager it works
i guess its related to the windows wow64.dll bug tracked here:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=311712
nonpublic hotfix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947841
this bug occurs, when applications install a global window message hook (like visual assist does, atleast in newer builds i guess) and another application uses CB_GETCOMBOBOXINFO to get information (like visual studio does when the ctr+f window opens)
i know its not a visual assist bug, but i would love to see a visual assist, that doesnt use globalhooks (atleast as long as this bug isnt fixed by microsoft)
thx |

I think this is the same thing as I mentioned in this FAQ entry:
http://docs.wholetomato.com?W308
In order to work VA has to hook into the IDE. Notice that the bug here is a Windows bug, and is nothing to do with Visual Assist X or the IDE its self. |
