Seems like a good idea, after all, why have a network if you store everything locally? Well, it seems that Visual Studio does not like that.
For some settings it will decide to find a suitable local directory for you. For some other settings it leaves you high and dry.
For example, when I try and build my program I get the error:
Error 1 error C1033: cannot open program database '\\server\share\working\project\debug\vc100.pdb' \\server\share\working\project\stdafx.cpp 1 1 project
The internet was of little use which is why I thought I would put it in my blog.
This goes a long way to explain my criticism of Visual Studio. After installing several gig of software, is that the best error message it can come up with? Well I will try the help, Oh, that is online only. After jumping through some hoops, the help tells me that:
This error can be caused by disk error.
Well, no disks errors here. Perhaps it means that it does not like saving the .pdb on a network share. What is a .pdb anyway???
In the end, my solution (can I call it that or as Visual Studio hijacked that word?) was to save intermediate files locally:
- Open Project -> Properties...
- Select Configuration Properties\General
- Select Intermediate Directory
- Select <Edit...>
- Expand Macros>>
- Edit the value (by double clicking on the macros or just typing in):
- Select OK
- Select OK
And that seems to sort it out.
