Windows XP x64 with VS.NET 2005 & Edit & Continue

Published Thu, Oct 20 2005 8:54 AM

i'm using Windows x64 for a while now, and it's really, really fast. The userexperience is great.

There are some major drawbacks:
- Virtual PC does not work
- Deamon Tools does not work
- Edit & Continue is not working in VS.NET 2005 (and will not be working with the final release of Visual Studio 2005)

But the thing irritating me most is that every time I try to type some code while debugging I get a messagebox that Edit & Continue is not supported in windows x64
Does anybody know how I can get rid of this messagebox ?

Pascal,

Where did you read that Edit & Continue will not work with Windows x64 in the final release of Visual Studio 2005? Please provide a link.

Thanks!
Nate

Ok, I found the following two items that confirm what you said about Edit & Continue. For me the question is: Can you use Edit & Continue on Whibdey if you are writing a 32 bit app but your dev platform is Windows x64?

Pascal writes about the joy of x64 Windows XP, and some drawbacks.  One drawback is no Edit...
