I've got community 2015 version of Visual Studio. I'm working on a project in typescript and I've got problem with syncing modified datas with browser. Typically i'm working on some part of code, debug it and change, then ctrl + save and ctrl + r to refresh browser. And It looks that newly generated source maps aren't applied becouse I still have old version of .ts code! (but javascript is corrected). So javascript and .ts arent synced eachother and it's really hard to debug. What should I do to make it work?
EDIT:
ofc, My files are edited in Visual Studio, not in browser.
ALSO:
I noticed that in most cases it's good to work on anonymous mode in chrome. It helps to keep files synced (even I've got checked disable cache).
It helps to keep files synced (even I've got checked disable cache)
For development you should return the file with cache disabled using http header:
Cache-Control:no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate
I'm doing some very simple web dev and using chrome's debugger. The included javascript never seems to update when I modify the source. I can delete the contents of the whole file and it still loads stale code (unless I restart chrome). If I remove permissions on the file, it notices and won't load the page but when replacing permissions the old code is back. This happens both when fetching via http and the local file directly. No amount of spamming reload or ctrl-F5 works. I've tried clearing and manually deleting the cache and even setting the don't cache option in the developer options. I don't think chrome's in local modifications mode but I can never tell (this "feature" is amazingly buggy if not sometimes quite desirable). I don't have this issue in firefox but specifically want to test chrome at the moment.
Has anyone seen this before? What are the common causes? What can I do to prevent this happening?
I'm running fedora 18 with google-chrome 31.0.1650.39-1 - and after noting a newer version - 32.0.1700.19-1. Both have the same issue.
I think ctl-shift-r does a "hard reload," ignoring any cache.
I normally get this problem with Dreamweaver, the new code refreshes fine in the dreamweaver window but when I wanna test on chrome it loads the old code. It generally just takes a couple refreshes for the code to catch up - I assumed the problem was because I was running the files off an appache server which could be causing the delay however it's still local
I'm working on an ASP.NET app with Visual Studio.
The problem is that every time I launch the app, the IE has some css and js file cached so I have to manually clear the cache and only then run the app.
Added a external command in VS2012 that runs this tutorial but it runs only once and then it does nothing (I didn't check what triggers this one time).
I'm looking for either VS configuration, external tool, command line, anything that will let me clear the cache by a single click without the need to open the IE.
Thanks
OK, found a solution for my problem.
Don't know how I didn't see it before but the IE debugging window has a button for clearing the cache.
I couldn't find anything similar in Chrome (didn't look in FF and Safari) but for now I'm working only on IE so that's fine.
btw: I tried several other alternatives such as writing scripts/deleting registry entries but nothing worked. Some worked for the first time until next machine restart.
I hope someone can come up with a more efficient way.
I've been working on a fairly simple ASP.net project with some javascript to show and hide some content on the page. Every now and then I'll make some changes to my javascript and they won't show up when I run the project again. Going into debug mode, Visual studio (or internet explorer I guess?) just skips over the changes I made.
This only happened to me once in VS12 and I noticed that the debugger showed a functions(dynamic).js as it went through the steps and a separate functions.js where I had made my changes. I resolved this issue by renaming my javascript file.
My project has moved to VS10 since then and this issue keeps happening more and more frequently.
Any insight as to why this could be happening?
I am struggling with breakPoint issue in VS 2012 for more than hours. I am from eclipse background, there I never heard about such issues.
Problem :
The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded
for this document.
I have placed the break point in click action of Jquery.
I found the issue using the IE script debugging., The file loaded was old file., i.e I have modified a lot, but I can see no changes in the one which is loaded in IE. How to fix the bug
What I have Tried :
I know this question is duplicate, but being a newbie to VS and C#., I could not understand the older answers. For example, in this answer, he told to choose Debug -> Windows -> Modules. But I doesn't have Modules under windows in VS 2012. Also even though I read, I could not understand the explanation.
Also I am quite new to term Assemblies and PDB. Though, I located PDB files as he said. But how to open the .pdb file?
Need :
Could anyone explain me the same answer in easier term (with more explanation).
I found this out by accident with my VS2012 and ASP.NET MVC, maybe it can help somebody. I noticed that breakpoints in javascript that's inline in the *.cshtml file like this won't get hit (note that this file is a cshtml file):
But breakpoints in external *.js files will get hit:
Try to add debugger; key word before $.getJSON
Also make sure if you use IE to un-check the disable script debugging
Internet Options> Advanced tab> Under Browsing.
As I think this issue is related to Javascript debugging not C#
This results for me:
In your web application make sure Silverlight and ASP.NET debugger are enabled.
How to get there?
=> Right click on the Web Application => Properties => Web tab. Under Debuggers section make sure Silverlight and ASP.NET are enabled.
Running Visual Studio 2013 or Visual Studio 2015 RC, I've found that to get a breakpoint to work in a .js file I need two things to be true:
I need to start Visual Studio by right-clicking the VS shortcut and select "Run as administrator". (If right-clicking on the Taskbar icon, select the application shortcut icon from the pop-up menu and right-click on that to get a context menu that includes "Run as administrator".)
I need to set Internet Explorer as the default browser that will be opened for the web debugging session. If I choose Chrome or Firefox, the breakpoint doesn't work for me.
After opening and closing VS, rebooting the PC with all with no chance, this workaround worked for me in VS 2012 ( Ver 11.0.50727.1 RTMREL ):
In Project Property Pages, under Start Options, in Debugger section, only ASP.NET was enabled. As soon as I enabled Native Code and SQL Server, that red circle with plus sign inside, enabled again.
No idea why this worked! No active connection in Server Explorer nor using any native code in the project!
I had the same problem. You can use VS2017 to debug JS code this way.
When you set VS to launch the browser (Chrome in my case), it opens a new Chrome window. I was trying to debug the specific code (different URL from the window that opened) in a new tab. So I had the 'The breakpoint will not currently be hit. Breakpoint set but not yet bound' in VS.
I found out that if I opened the new URL in the original tab it suddenly worked. Seems that VS is tied to that particular tab.
Hope this helps.
These are the particulars of my situation: VS 2017 - Mainly C# code with some embedded HTML/JS which I needed to debug, Chrome (Version 68.0.3440), Windows 10
As this is Javascript code, so you need to use a javascript debugger. Generally internet browsers come with a debugger/inspector menu, which allows you to inspect/debug your javascript easily. Such debuggers come with a lot of useful features such as HTTP request/response inspection, browser session/local storage, etc.
Actually there is "Modules" option, but it's enabled only when you are in debug mode.
You can just press Ctrl+D,M combination when you're in debug.
In few words, PDB is a file that contains all debug information about your assebmly, you can not debug an assembly without this file. Assembly is a file that contains precompiled code for exetuion via CLR.
Could you provide a bit more information about your problem. What kind of application you are trying to debug for example?
Also, if you have located you pdb files made EXACTLY for your assembly, you can load it by right-clicking your assembly in modules window and selecting Load Symbols From > Symbol Path
Try deleting all breakpoints and restarting debugging in Visual Studio.
