After reinstall projects no longer recognised by VisualGDB

[spaspland]

I have a large solution with lots of projects setup using the method described here https://visualgdb.com/tutorials/porting/multiplatform/

My visual studio 2022 install broke, and I’ve reinstalled it and VisualGDB 5.6R9.

Since then, none of the projects have the VisualGDB Project Properties option.  Forcing it to appear using shift shows Image1.png (attached) with none of the usual options available.

How do I get this working again?

Hi,

Unfortunately, it is hard to say anything specific based on the information you provided.

Our best advice would be to try creating a new similar project from scratch and check for any errors along the way. If the new project works and the existing ones do not, you can try comparing the .vcxproj files between them, and temporarily copying the working .vcxproj file into the broken project or vice versa to see if it affects the issue.

I confirm I am facing same issue.

Solved using –> Reload Project with dependencies.

 

I was not expecting such behavior.

 

thank you

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this. Normally, the project reloading should not effect the logic that manages VisualGDB Project Properties, but given the overall complexity of VS, it could have cached something in a way that would interfere with VisualGDB.

If anyone else encounters the problem and confirms the workaround, we can investigate it further and see if VisualGDB can detect it automatically.
