Failed to install this extension, due to below error:
" This extension cannot be installed because the following references are missing:
- Microsoft.VisualStudio.Android.VC"
Anyone knows how to fix this?
Thanks
I am trying to create a GDB project but I get an error message that says "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: hierarchy" and I end up with an empty solution with no project in it. I am using Visual Studio 2015 on Windows 7. I installed all the prerequisite extensions (Android/Xamarin/etc) using the Visual Studio installer. I have tried to google but found nothing that applied to this situation.
That is very strange. I just setup a Win7 machine to try this on and cannot repro it. To be clear, the extension installed and you are creating a Makefile (GDB) project and then this message is thrown?
Yes, everything installed without any problems. I choose Makefile (GDB) and when I click OK in the "New Project" dialog box I get this error message. I have ReSharper version 9.2 installed as well (should have mentioned that in my previous post, apologies for that) so I tried both disabling it and uninstalling it and while I still could not create a project I did get a different error message, this time it says "Exception from HRESULT: 0x80041FE2" so I suspect ReSharper may have something to do with it but there does seem to be more to it than that as even uninstalling it completely did not resolve the issue.
hi,
I am trying to install this extension but I am getting an error message: "The extension manifest is invalid".
what can I do?
my Studio is Enterprise 2015
Thanks,
m.r.
Nice !!
I tried this with a centos machine. A few things I see:
The gdb command doesn't accept quoted path names: e.g if you have your putty in "c:\program files (x86...."
I had to revert back to using c:\progra~2...
The quoted command does work for the build command lines , i.e. when adding the plink commands
Also, the breakpoint wasn't hit. I.e using the a simple test program (Hello world.. type) I could copy and build and actually invoke the debugger, but the Bp wasn't hit, it just ran through.
The target linux machine did have a gdb 7.... something (mathing with the gcc 4.81 toolset)
Anything I'm missing?
the next thing would be getting Intellisense to point to the right linux files...
Actually- getting it to do a shred Linux/other/windows project as for the mobile stuff would be nice
I just got a CentOS machine setup for this and realized it may be a simple explanation. Is your breakpoint on the first line of your code? If so try setting another one. It looks like we have a bug where we always miss the first executable line of code in main.
Regarding quotes and blanks in paths, on the project properties for debug do not use quotes. The code in the extension handles that correctly. If there are paths in a parameter name used on the nmake build command line you need to use quotes there. That's existing functionality in VS we didn't touch so there is a discrepancy in how that's working. Sorry about that.
Regarding shared projects, would you not just use this as a project in a solution that has the other project types you need?
I tried to use this for debug core dump.
I wrote my core dump file name to "Remote Executable Arguments" property and I run it.
But debugger launched my program from the main function.
I expected it debug from core dump's call stack.
So, how can i load a core dump from this.
Plz help me!!
The remote executable arguments is to pass params to the executable you are debugging. I have not tried this scenario. I would suggest you try customizing the remote debugger executable property. I use that approach for code accessing gpio, e.g. "sudo gdb". You should be able to pass arguments to gdb that way as well e.g. "gdb /path/to/coredump".
I'm very interested in how this works for you, it is not something I've tried so I don't know how it is going to behave.
