POVisual Studio 2010SP1 locks up when typing class=" in MVC3 project using razor
text
Body
copied!<p>Sometimes, not always, Visual Studio locks up when typing <code>class="</code> on any element. This doesn't happen all the time and I can't seem to identify a pattern other than VS has usually been running for a while.</p> <p>Also, I have ELMAH installed and set to email me on exceptions. Relatively often, although not always I get an email when typing <code>class="</code> like below. Why would it be trying to start the project when typing class?</p> <pre><code>System.Web.HttpException: The controller for path '/Views/TechSupport/@Url.Content(' was not found or does not implement IController. </code></pre> <p>To resolve the issue I restart Visual Studio. Sometimes the problem persists and I need to restart it again. Usually it works properly at that point, without the above ELMAH email. If not then I reboot.</p> <p>This is my only MVC project, so I don't know if it's specific to this project or not. It did seem to happen very early on in the development process though. This only happens when I type class=", nothing else triggers a crash/lockup.</p> <p><strong>EDIT - ADDITIONAL INFO:</strong> For some reason, when I just typed class=" an error dialog box popped with the message <br/> <code>Cannot load "c:\Progra~1\MICROS~2.0\Common7\Packages\vwd\mso.dll"</code><br/> When I click OK I get a second dialog box that says <br/> <code>Visual Studio has encountered an exception. This may be caused by an extension.</code><br/> It then goes on to suggest I use the /log parameter when start VS, which I will be trying now.</p>
