That “Invalid operation” error message is…less than helpful.  What can cause that error message?

Hi,

Looks like our bug, sorry about that. VisualGDB is trying to create a .bin file from a static library (that is not supported). Please simply disable the .bin file creation for the static library project and the error will go away.
