I have created a custom control that is included in a control library that is referenced by a VB Forms application.
When I modify the control, and have the application open in a VS window, VS usually asks me if I want to reload items that have changed.
However, a couple of times, it has not asked me this, and when I go to open the form that contains the modified control, I get an error window warning me that if I ignore the error message and continue, then I risk making VS unstable. I’ve learned to ignore this error message, continue, and immediately save the form to a new file.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is this a bug in VS?
The problem seemed to be references to controls that no longer exist, sometimes because the .dll htat the control is in is no longer available. I discovered this when doing a “Clean All” on my control library, and then getting the error when I opened a form referencing the control – the problem when away when I “Rebuilt all” in the control library.
