Visual Studio 2008 is a piece of shit!

It’s been one of those weeks :(

It should be noted that I was able to take a screen shot, upload it to Wordpress and make this blog post before that message went away and I was able to interact with Visual Studio.NET again!

    You are spot on ! it *IS* a piece of shit. They have so many bugs that crash Visual Studio if you are using MFC. It seems that once you start compiling and debugging, you are then FROZEN from adding any further new classes via their piece of shit class wizard.

    Another thing that I can’t stand is the HTML dialog boxes. Why can’t they give you an option to use CDialog instead.

    I had to go back to the one that *REALLY* works, VS 6.0 MFC.

    I had the same thing happen with a few days left to launch on a huge project.

    HULK WANT SMASH!

    Agreed. VS2008 is a buggy piece of shit, especially on Vista64. I’m going back VS2005.

    It has worked much better since I switched over to Windows 7. Even with 64-bit Windows 7 it runs much better.

    My problem before may have been more Vista than VS.NET 2008.
