I found a simple workaround for this. Change the debug port on the remote machine (Tools --&gt; Options). I would use something arbitrarily high, like 63342 to avoid colliding with any existing ports but you just need to use any unused one. Once changed, you should be able to connect.

The [hotfix 2588507][1] ended up resolving the issue after all. I am running several instances of visual studio 2012 for several days, and debugging remote processes constantly, and have not seen yet a single &quot;invalid access to memory location&quot;

I came accross this error message in VS2013 and resolved it by running VS with administrator priviledges.

Hope this helps out someone.

I have a very large .txt file with hundreds of thousands of email addresses scattered throughout.  They all take the format:

    ...&lt;name@domain.com&gt;...

What is the best way to have Python to cycle through the entire .txt file looking for a all instances of a certain @domain string, and then grab the entirety of the address within the &lt;...&gt;&#39;s, and add it to a list?  The trouble I have is with the variable length of different addresses.

In [this post][1] there is a Python example to convert from csv to xls.


  [1]: https://superuser.com/questions/301431/how-to-batch-convert-csv-to-xls-xlsx

However, my file has more than 65536 rows so xls does not work. If I name the file xlsx it doesnt make a difference. Is there a Python package to convert to xlsx?

This is another attempt to resolve the problem stated [here][1]. Unfortunately the topic was closed without adequate resolution found, as apparently the original poster had issues with symbols, not with visual studio problem itself.

**Problem Statement:** Visual Studio 2012 (and 2010 for the same matter) will stop attaching to remote process after a period of time with &quot;invalid access to memory location&quot;. Restarting Visual Studio fixes the problem.

I am currently on VS2012 update 3, but the issue also occured in RTM, and all intermediate updates.

The [referenced thread][2] suggests patching operating system with [hotfix 2588507][3], however I am unable to apply it, because it seems to be not downloadable, possibly because of intermittent issue.

Have anybody successfully addressed this problem and if yes then how?

I was wondering what were the differences between those declaration of getters and setters and if there is a preferred method (and why). The first one can be generated automaticly by Visual Studio. How about the others ? Thanks

1st

    string _myProperty { get; set; }

2nd

    string _myProperty;
    
    public string myProperty
    {
        get { return _myProperty; }
        set { _myProperty = value; }
    }

3rd

    string _myProperty;
    
    public string getMyProperty()
    {
      return this._myProperty;
    }
    
    public void setMyProperty(string value)
    {
      this._myProperty = value;
    }

I just deployed an asp.net mvc 3 web application to AppHarbor but it failed:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(3932,5): error MSB3541: Files has invalid value &quot;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; HEAD&quot;. Illegal characters in path. [D:\temp\q5cmde4m.uk1\input\MyProject\MyProject.csproj]

This happened after I opened the project with Visual Studio 2012 (the application was created with VS2010).

I&#39;ve noticed that the auto complete feature in [Visual Studio][1] no longer works properly once my project has reached a certain size (in my case ~4,100 lines of code). I&#39;ve also noticed that performance also degrades once the number of third-party libraries increases (namespaces and class attributes and methods are no longer visible).
  
Is there a way of manually updating the auto completion database or create a new one for an existing project?

I am currently working under [Visual&amp;nbsp;Studio&amp;nbsp;2008][2], but I have experienced this issue in [Visual&amp;nbsp;Studio&amp;nbsp;2010][3] as well.

Refreshing the auto complete (IntelliSense) database in Visual Studio

We have a really big solution with more than 200 projects and thousands of files. Despite of that the solution used to load pretty quickly in Visual Studio 2010 as well as 2012. However, after copying the whole SVN repository to another location, loading and closing the solution suddenly took extreeeemly long. (I am talking about 30-60 minutes here!)

Why does it take sooo long to load my solution in Visual Studio?

I want to run my application from IIS on my local machine. I created the virtual directory and added the application to it and in the properties folder of the application I checked the radio button &#39;Use Local IIS Webserver&#39;. I then started running my application but I&#39;m getting the following error:

&gt;Unable to start debugging on the webserver.see help for common configuration errors.Running the webpage outside of the debugger may provide further information.
&gt;
&gt;Make sure the server in operating correctly.Verify there are no syntax errors in web.config by doing a debug.Start Without Debugging.You may also want to refer to the ASP.NET and ATL Server debugging topic in the online documentation.

How do I get rid of this error?

I&#39;m using Visual Studio 2010 on Windows 7 and IIS 7.5.

I want to make a custom Exception in C#, but in theory I do need to do a little parsing first before I can make a human readable ExceptionMessage.

The problem is that the orginal Message can only be set by calling the base constructor of `Messsage`, so I can&#39;t do any parsing in advance.

I tried overring the Message property like this:

	public class CustomException : Exception
	{
		string _Message;
			
		public CustomException(dynamic json) : base(&quot;Plep&quot;)
		{
			// Some parsing to create a human readable message (simplified)
			_Message	= json.message;
		}

		public override string Message
		{
			get { return _Message; }
		}
	}

The problem is that the Visual Studio debugger still shows the message that I&#39;ve passed into the constructor, *Plep* in this case. 

    throw new CustomException( new { message=&quot;Show this message&quot; } )

results in:

![Visual Studio Exception Dialog][1]

If I leave the base constructor empty it will show a very generic message:

*An unhandled exception of type &#39;App.CustomException&#39; occurred in App.exe*

**Question**

It looks like the Exception Dialog reads some field/property that I don&#39;t have any access too. Is there any other way to set a human readable error message outside the base constructor on Exception.

Note that I&#39;m using Visual Studio 2012.

I want a specific directory to be copied to output folder (&quot;bin&quot;) on every build. I think it can be handled via post build scripts. But I&#39;m not sure how to copy a directory itself. I know how to handle specific files.

For eg, this works for a file:

In

&gt; Project &gt; Properties &gt; Build Events&gt; Post Build

    COPY &quot;$(SolutionDir)Resources\Release Notes.pdf&quot; &quot;$(TargetDir)&quot;

---
But suppose I have a directory `Template`, now I need everything under `Template` to come to `bin` folder upon successful build **maintaining the folder structure**.

I tried this:


    COPY &quot;$(SolutionDir)Resources\Template\&quot; &quot;$(TargetDir)&quot;

Only the files in `Template` directory gets copied this way and not the sub directories and the files inside `Template` folder. I want the folder `Template` itself to come inside my output `bin` folder. In other words, `bin` should look like:

    bin &gt; Template &gt; abc.xxx  
                     xxx.yyy
                     Subdirectory1 &gt; asd.qwe
                                     zxc.qwe 
                     Subdirectory2 &gt; ...

This could be a duplicate, but I couldn&#39;t find a relevant thread. Thanks.

I&#39;m writing an application in C# that opens an Excel template file for read/write operations. I want to when user closes the application, excel application process has been closed, without saving excel file. See my Task Manager after multiple runs of the app.

![enter image description here][1]


I use this code to open the excel file :

    public Excel.Application excelApp = new Excel.Application();
    public Excel.Workbook excelBook;
    excelBook = excelApp.Workbooks.Add(@&quot;C:/pape.xltx&quot;);

and for data access I use this code :

    Excel.Worksheet excelSheet = (Worksheet)(excelBook.Worksheets[1]);
    excelSheet.DisplayRightToLeft = true;
    Range rng;
    rng = excelSheet.get_Range(&quot;C2&quot;);
    rng.Value2 = txtName.Text;

I see similar questions in stackoverflow such as [this question][2] and [this][3], and test answers, but it doesn&#39;t works.

I&#39;m not sure what I did, but all of a sudden, my **Visual Studio 2012** will not debug any tests.

If I select a test from the **Test Explorer** and tell it to run, it simply outputs this in the Test Output window:

    &gt; ------ Discover test started ------
    &gt; ========== Discover test finished: 29 found (0:00:01.3371755) ==========
    &gt; ------ Run test started ------ Process with an Id of -1 is not running.
    &gt; ========== Run test finished: 0 run (0:00:01.4711861) ==========

what the heck does that mean?! After doing this a few times, the error changed to:

    The Operation was Cancelled
which I sure didn&#39;t do.

It&#39;s doing this on every test in the list.

however, I can RUN the tests no problem, and they pass... but I cannot debug the tests.

What might I have done? I did not actively go into any settings and change anything, perhaps a stray click somewhere, but where?

When I debugging in VS2013 update3, msvsmon.exe crashed when hit at a breakpoint.

It shows &quot;The debugger&#39;s worker process (msvsmon.exe) unexpectedly exited. Debugging will be aborted&quot;.

I&#39;m not using remote debug.

Is it possible to shut down the msvsmon.exe to avoid calling it when debugging ?

I want to debug Android APPs on my phone (LG nexus 4). I&#39;m travelling and I forgot my USB cable. When I work at home I can do it just connecting the USB cable and executing the command &#39;adb tcpip 5555&#39;. Then I can unplug the USB cable and connect via &#39;adb connect IP&#39;. 

But now I cannot execute the first command because I don&#39;t have a cable. I don&#39;t understand why I have to do it every time, since I already execute the &#39;adb tcpip&#39; command before. 

What I tried now: 

I installed a terminal application on my Android and tried to execute that command there, but I received a &quot;device not found&quot; error. Maybe he cannot see himself... 

I search for any reasonable option in &quot;Android Development Options&quot; and enabled everything seemed to have relation with Wifi. But nothing helped.

I search StackOverflow, but all answers I found involving connect via USB cable before. Is there I way to do this connection without the need of a cable at all? 

Some info: 
My Nexus 4 isn&#39;t rooted. 
The android version is 5.1.1.
