My .ncb file keeps getting corrupted

[Stephen Villanueva]

I kept losing my main dialog class and that is why I was getting my earlier
errors. I could edit it under resources, but I couldn't ever add any new
events to it.

Looking at Knowledge Base Article 294704 - found a basic description of the
problem, but my registry entries seem to be correct, even including the one
the suggested to add. I have deleted the .ncb for the project and restart
VS. The Class comes back and it seems to start working correctly again.

I tried to look for articles about .ncb corruption, but the above article is
the only one that mentions it.

Is anyone else having or have solved this problem? I am really trying to
make this work...

Are you using version 6.0? This is a known problem in 6.0 that we think is
fixed in VC++ .NET. If you have a repro case in VC++ .NET we'd love to see
it.

Sorry for not getting back sooner, I was on vacation.

This is part of the 60 day trail version, of Visual Studio.NET, I received
on CD. What sort of information do you need.

Here is an general explanation of what is happening and it has happened in
every project I have started, unless I took extraordinary steps to avoid the
problem.

I can place controls on my form without any issues. I can even add event
handlers, letting the IDE bring up the appropriate code locations to add the
event handler code. If I start manually switching between the source view
and the resource view then the problem occurs. I usually do not go into the
class view until this issue has occurred, and then only to verify that the
class has disappeared.

I can't tie it down to a specific thing I am doing, The class just
disappears and I can no longer add anything new to the class. Again, it
seems to happen when switching between Resource and Source views (tabs). I
am just learning VC++ and following examples, so I am not sure where to go
and what to do. I just lucked upon the deletion of the class definition
database as I widen my search in the knowledge base.

If I am very careful and just use the Event handler wizard to add handlers I
can usually get through a tutorial example without any problems. Many times
though, fat finger typing causes problems where I have to go back and
correct a spelling or other simple syntax error. This is when the problem
occurs.

This is very frustrating for someone trying to learn VC++.

Thanks

Which tutorial are you using?
