Hi,

I'm getting a message that an external component has thrown an exception, and I'm not sure if it's VA X or not. It was thrown during debugging when I stepped into Does this look familiar (from my C:\\Users\\<me>\\AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\11.0)?

It says "An exception has been encountered. This may be caused by an extension."

It might actually be a problem with the Visual Studio XML Editor Package, since it's the last thing loaded before the error.

Thanks,
Jay

I don't recognise this, and I am not seeing any obvious signs of this in our bug database. Normally VA is fairly inactive while debugging. The only thing we should be doing is applying syntax highlighting to code files as you open them. Did this exception appear to be associated with opening a new code file? Stepping through an open file should be relatively safe.

If you look at:

IDE Tools menu -> Extensions and Updates...

what extensions are listed on you system? On a full install of VS2012 with VA I have the following extensions listed:

Microsoft Web Developer Tools
NuGet Package Manager
Visual Assist X
Visual Studio Extensions for Windows Library for JavaScript

if you have a different list this might offer a clue.

Sorry for the late response. I wrote up a reply last week, but must not have submitted it.

This error showed up in both debug and during edit, but there are several other entries in the list. I've pruned those that I'm either not using or that don't work in VS 2012.

From the timing I suspect it's one of the TFS power tool extensions, but I can't prove it. (I recently upgraded the powertoys from 2010 to 2012).

Thanks,
Jay

If you keep on seeing this problem can you please try disabling either VA or the TFS power tools extension in the dialog:

IDE tools menu -> Extensions and Updates...

and restarting your IDE. If disabling VA does not help, but disabling TFS power tools does this would strongly suggest the problem is related to this extension.

Another test would be to try turning off:

VA Options -> Advanced -> Fonts and Colors -> Enable Enhanced Syntax Coloring

since the syntax highlighting is going to be active during both editing and debugging.

I've just crashed again, but with a slightly different message:

"Unhandled exception at 0x755F4F0D in devenv.exe: 0xC000041D: An unhandled exception was encountered during a user callback."

The call stack for devenv.exe looks like this, for what it's worth:

I was debugging, and hovered over a symbol in the editor. I may have right-clicked. The only thing that seems like it could be VA X related are the lines
> msenv.dll!CVSShellMenu::ShowContextMenu Unknown
msenv.dll!CVsUIShell::ShowContextMenu Unknown

I don't believe my other extensions are adding anything to the context menu. Does that process involve stuffing Variants into SafeArrays?

Thanks again,
Jay

Thank you for the call stack. Normally VA should actually be listed if it was a factor, but I have asked our developers about this anyway, just in case it seems familiar.

Are you able to try disabling either VA or TFS power tools in:

IDE tools menu -> Extensions and Updates...

and see if this makes any difference? Hopefully you will know fairly soon, since this seems to be a fairly common problem.
