Bug: VS2017 - Cancel build does not work

On a file with generated code (my own generator), I forgot a ) on a line type.
So I canceled the build when I saw that.

The build stops, but VS doesn’t see that it is stopped; I have to kill the instance.

I haven’t seen this recently, can you send us the project that does this?

That does not exist anymore - I am busy generating a API wrapper - at that point I had thouthends of errors, now only 10 left (file is about 35.000 lines of code).

FWIW, one problem you’ll never have with Water. :wink:

6

can you let us know if/when you see it again? I’m not sure we can do much until we can reproducethis locally.

Ok.

And nothing to worry about; the VB compiler crashes on a file like this :smile:

Take this file (about 100.000 lines, full of errors).
GeneratedEntityClasses.zip (371.4 KB)

Place it in a project, compile (this takes a while with all the errors) - cancel the build, and VS has to be killed before you can compile again.
