I have a serious bug here.
My IDE gets reproducably stalled with 100% CPU load when typing Shift-N. This seems not to occur with other characters. I don't know if this is specific to C#.

I will go back to 1278 - but this one hos no C#-Properties on Alt-M.

I am useing VS.NET 2003/C#/VA1283.

Regards,
Torsten

Is/was the stall when typing N at the start of a new symbol? Within a symbol? When picking from a members listbox? Somewhere else?

What happened after the stall, i.e. did a listbox appear?

Ok, I have reinstalled 1283.

First I tried to reproduce it with a fresh console app, but I couldn't.
Then I loaded a simple project with a couple of dlls, and an exe and it happened immediately (possibly during symbol parsing?).
After that I tried the console app again, and now it also happened (definitely not during symbol parsing).

It seems that it doesn't matter where the cursor is in the code editor when typing Shift-N.
After the stall absolutely nothing happens. The IDE just stands still with 100% CPU load (ok that is not really still is it), and I have to close it in the task manager. No listboxes appear.

It does not happen with 1279.

Could you provide that solution/workspace to us, so we can try to reproduce that behaviour?
If you cannot give out the code, cause it's production-code, it's okay, so don't worry...

Can you post a small screen shot of where/when you press Shift+N?

Might Shift+N be assigned to a command?

I have sent a screenshot, although nothing special with it.
It seems to happen at various places in the text, but not in front of using statements.

The only add-in I have installed beside of VS is Project Line Counter 2.10.
I do not think that Shift-N could be assigned to a command since you cannot assign Shift-'Character' keyboard sequences in the VS options dialog.

I have cleared VA cache and history and also rebuild the VA symbols. When I closed the IDE and reopened my console app (the one from the screenshot), everything seems to work fine.

Then I opened one of my larger solutions. VA parses the symbols, and when ready I hit my Shift-N, and there it is again. The IDE stalls with 100% CPU load. After that I terminated VS and reopened the console app, and now it also happened there immediately.

May this have somthing to do with corrupted cache or symbols?

I'm seeing a lock up as well, but I'm getting it when I type a using statement (C#). As soon as the listbox should be shown the IDE goes out to lunch with 100 CPU.

This doesn't happen everytime, but it's constant enough that I can't use 1283.

I'm using a :
Dual-CPU
VS 2003

I have the same problem typing Shift-D at the start of a literal string. If I disable VA the problem doesn't occur.

I have noticed that build 1283 stalls with 100% CPU usage when scrolling. This does not happen with 1274.

I'm still seeing this problem with 1284. Devenv.exe goes to 100% when I start type a using statement.

I'm using English VS 2003
I do have Dual CPU which may affect it.

I am using English VS2003. I do have the NUnit add-in installed.

I do notice that other posters have mentioned that the problem occurs with large projects. That is the case with me as well. My solution has 10+ projects and several hundred files. We are using the Infragistics NetAdvantage library as well.

We have another test build with more logging and a possible fix for performance and crash problems. If you have recent trouble with either, please try build 1285.

Tell us if build 1285 helps. If not, send us a log.

So far I haven't seen a lockup with 1285.

Yes, up to now everything seems to work with 1285.
