I'm trying to get ZeroC Ice demos to work but I'm running into a problem.
I get this while trying both the C# and C++ demos.
Compiling works fine but when starting the server and client, nothing happens.
I have narrowed the cause down to the function ice_isA() which is called inside checkedCast().
When this function is called nothing happens, ie. nothing is returned and no error is raised, the debugging stops and the program does nothing.
What may be the cause of this?
This function is the first function called from the Ice library so it may as well have nothing to do with that specific function but instead something with my setup.
I run this on Windows 8 Dev Preview (essentially the same as Win 7 x64) with Visual Studio 2010 professional. The included Visual Studio 11 is uninstalled as it caused other problems.
Seems like it was just that it didn't work well with Windows 8. A switch back to Windows 7 solved everything.

I've recently installed VB6+SP6 on a new Windows 10 PC and it seems to work fine in itself.
But as I'm trying to get IDE add-ins working I'm running into this type of error:
This particular example is from the Microsoft add-in at this link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/837910/mouse-wheel-events-do-not-work-in-the-visual-basic-6-0-ide
but others are all doing the same thing.
I've never seen this before - what is the cause?
Thanks
EDIT: MZTools 8 and VBAdvance have WORKED even though others have not; those both had their own installer which apparently does something right.
I had issues with VS2015 before and eventually had to reinstall my OS. So after that, I installed VS2015 + Xamarin on my Windows 10 PC. Before I had reinstalled my OS, and before it went all haywire, everything was working fine. The AVMs launched and everything worked well. Now, apparently, even after reinstallation on my OS, the ghosts of the errors don't seem to go away.
This is what's going on:
When I create a simple project, and I debugged the sample code in it, I got this error:
So, naturally, I used the x86 version VM. Then I got this error:
I dug around in Stack Overflow and the other parts of internet and tried multiple things, but nothing seems to have worked. I really would liked to have this sorted out so I can go ahead with my project. Any help is appreciated.
I've tried to remove/reinstall HAXM and
Tried to Install Visual Studio Android emulator
Nothing seems to have worked. With the latter, the debugging is SLOW. It just doesn't do anything. The emulator launches fine, but nothing happens after that. No, I don't get the Stop Debugging button, so..
Thanks
Recently, I needed to refresh my Windows 8.1 PC, and now that I have finally finished getting all of my programs reinstalled and everything is back to normal, I am ready to finish work on my Windows 8.1 app, but I am having an issue with compiling my apps. Every time I try to compile, I get the following error.
Now normally when I need to refresh my developer licesnse, Visual Studio tells me, but this time I didn't get any prompt at all, and that is the error that I got when trying to compile. How can I fix this? I am installing updates for Visual STudio at the moment, and I am hoping that doing so will somehow magically fix the problem, but I am also aware that it probably won't.
EDIT: Now that I have updated, the message has been shortened to "Can't resolve Windows.metadata."
For some reason, even though the Windows 8.1 SDK is supposed to be installed with Visual Studio Ultimate 2013, it wasn't for me. I was able to find the Windows 8.1 SDK by Googling it, and it came up as the top result. I installed it, and suddenly all of my errors went away and Visual Studio started recognizing them as legitimate Windows 8.1 app code.
I am going bloody insane, I have installed a different type of Windows 8 (pro) at work, and now VS12 gives me this error. At home I have home edition W8 and everything works fine. I found ONLY ONE PERSON encountering this error EVER in Google, and he solved this by switching to .Net 3.5. But I am running an XNA 4.0 game (with a hack to make it work on VS12) and I don't have this option. Has anyone else EVER encountered something like this?
I am attempting to create a simple silverlight 4 application in visual studio 2010 ultimate running on windows 7 x64 and I am unable to use f5 debugging.
The error is:
Unable to start debugging. A fatal
error occurred. For more details,
please see the Microsoft Help and
Support web site. HRESULT=0x8004005.
In researching this I see a few people who say that reinstalling the developer runtime will correct the issue. I have done this several times but the issue remains. I have also tried running without debugging (works fine) and then attaching the debugger to the ie silverlight process, however this doesn't work either (it only breaks on the 'throw new Error(...)' javascript eval code.
I can do f5 debugging of asp.net projects without issue.
I have looked at several other silverlight debugging posts and either their error is different or their solution did not work for me.
This appears to have been caused by a windows phone 7 tools beta. By uninstalling it and installing the rtm version, the issue went away. shrug
