  1. Attempting to install 5.8.0.2 Won't Get Past "Another Installation Running"

    Hi, Thanks for sharing this issue. Windows installer unfortunately is not without its problems. I recommend a [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/manual-installation-instructions]manual installation instead[/url].

  2. Visual distractions when doing NCrunch stuff in Rider

    [quote=Der-Albert.com;17459] But for the jumping Content, I mean just Treeview of the Tests. And would assume that this is under the Control from NCrunch.[/quote] This is the one I'm not sure about. This feels like a buffering issue, perhaps related to the way windows messages are pushed throu…

  3. Visual distractions when doing NCrunch stuff in Rider

    Thanks for sharing these issues. Unfortunately, I don't see us as having much power to solve these issues right now. The mechanism through which the tool windows is bolted into the Rider IDE is built on several layers of systems that we don't have control over. Although we CAN control the conte…

  4. Test filter not working?

    I think these problems stem from a misunderstanding of the purpose of these filter settings. The 'Tests to run automatically' setting controls which tests the engine is allowed to automatically execute. Tests that do not pass this filter will still have a status in the Tests Window. They are no…

  5. Rider: Additional Files Dialog, HiDpi

    [quote=Der-Albert.com;17449]That's great, but the one I send via the Bug Report Dialog (can't type when NCrunch Tool Windows mode is Float or Windows) drives me more crazy ;)[/quote] Can you share any more detail on this focusing issue? Sadly the bug reports don't capture things like UI actions,…

  6. Test filter not working?

    Thanks for sharing this. The first thing I'd check is whether the categories are being obtained from the tests as expected. In the Tests Window, right click the column headers and choose to show the column for Category. This category needs to be an exact match for the string(s) used in the filt…

  7. Build failed on [DataRow(null)]

    Hi Tim, Thanks for sharing this issue. When using NCrunch with MSTest under Static Analysis, NCrunch doesn't support working with DataRow tests that use reference types as parameters. This is a technical limitation caused by the difficulty in uniquely identifying and transferring such types f…

  8. Breakpoints not working properly

    Thanks this really helps a great deal. A couple more things worth trying that may help narrow it down: - I'm not sure if Legacy PDBs work for the version of .NET you're using, but if they do, can you try turning them on for this project? - For some of your production code in the project, can yo…

  9. Breakpoints not working properly

    [quote=carlosirna;17438] Again, I could give you access to my developing machine via TeamViewer, or I could discuss my boss if I can give you access to a copy of our sources to let you troubleshoot the issue... but really I have spent the whole day trying to produce a something that reproduces the …

  10. Breakpoints not working properly

    [quote=carlosirna;17438] Could this give some problems to NCrunch engine? [/quote] Yes, this is highly likely to cause problems. If the .cs files are being excluded from MSBuild, then NCrunch won't detect them. Perhaps they are somehow being pushed into the compiler separately. I recomme…

  11. RDI overlay is misplaced

    [quote=Dorus;17434]I noticed RDI popups are often also misplaced when the window they're from has any horizontal scroll. Have you tried this scenario?[/quote] Could you check if you can produce this problem with the latest build? 5 days ago we released v5.8 with a whole bunch of DPI scaling fixe…

  12. Breakpoints not working properly

    Sorry, it looks as though to be able to resolve this, I'll need to have a way to examine the failure while tracing through the engine's activities. Do you have any way to reproduce this problem in a sample solution that you can share with me? You can submit small (<10MB) samples in ZIP form thro…

  13. UI scaling issues: Hot Spots

    Thanks for sharing these extra details. We've put a lot of time into trying to reproduce further problems with the DPI scaling in the way that you've described, but we can't seem to make them happen. I believe the issues you're seeing may be somehow specific to your system configuration or har…

  14. Breakpoints not working properly

    [quote=carlosirna;17426]Hi today I have no access to that PC, but for the moment I can guarantee that the ncrunch cache directory was totally empty: I keep it inside a volatile ramdisk (I use https://sourceforge.net/projects/imdisk-toolkit/) and the pc had been just turned on just to send you those …

  15. Breakpoints not working properly

    Thanks for sending through the report. This looks to be a large solution with a lot of activity. Unfortunately this means not everything could be captured in the report, though I was at least able to check the config settings which don't look to be responsible for this issue. Could you try th…

  16. Breakpoints not working properly

    Hi, Thanks for sharing these extra details. Could you please submit an NCrunch bug report after you've loaded NCrunch on this solution? The log file in the report contains a few things around your configuration that I'd like to check.

  17. Breakpoints not working properly

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. Are you running with RDI enabled? If so, does disabling it make any difference with the breakpoints? After checking the above, could you also try turning off the [url=https://www.ncrunch.net/documentation/reference_project-configuration_analyse-line-executio…

  18. Rider: NCrunch causing temp files to be made in project directory

    [quote=Der-Albert.com;17409] Not sure what you can do about that, this is more just for information. [/quote] Thanks for sharing this. Having spent a good deal of time staring at this problem and trying to find ways of dealing with it, I'm going to reluctantly need to pass the buck here. Th…

  19. RDI performance tanking when project reaches certain size

    I wonder if this issue could be due to bitpacking alignment. Changing the size of the codebase would change the number of elements, which would affect the alignment of the data being written to the log. I hadn't expected this would have that much impact on performance, but it's something worth inv…

  20. RDI performance tanking when project reaches certain size

    Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. To identify the root cause of such a situational performance issue, I would need to have a way to reproduce it. There are areas of RDI that do change internally as the number of code elements in the solution increases, but I don't see how these areas could be r…
