Compiling my FP app is taking upwards of 15 -20 minutes… never used to do this. Any ideas why?
Hello,
I think it is Visual Studio 2008 what is causing the problem.
Work around:
Open 2 VS2008 app. The 1st you keep your form open, the second you only open the same project, use the 2nd one to compile and work on the first one.
I am also still looking for a fix.
Greetings
I think I understood that…
You’re saying to open up the same project in 2 separate instances of VS2008.Then edit in one of them, then compile in the other?.. OR are you saying to edit and compile in one and do nothing with the other… ?
Yes, edit in one and compile in the other, it takes 2 seconds to build, you can upload it to the robot, but the application is hanging for a while. I will check for a VS update and keep you informed.
Best Regars,
Edwin Peeters,
..hmmm.. Not gettin’ the results you mentioned.
Only difference I noticed, and only happened once, was that instead of "devenv.exe’ process taking the entire CPU load… “explorer.exe” took the entire CPU..
… it was better, because at least you could use other apps while it was compiling.. but still… 15-20 minute compile times
Not sure I’ve got all the details on this method either,…
when I open 2 instances of “devenv” (vs2008) which one to edit in? 1st or 2cnd..
…also,
I have 14 ABB forms/controls … in one project , do I need to have them all open in the second instance?.. or none of them..?
…also,
Do I need to “reload” in the second instance everytime I save in the first instance?
Do I need to save the sln in the second instance prior to compiling in the 2cnd?
What do you do … specifically?
Seems that there must be some setting somewhere, otherwise there would much more rumble about this.
My FP app never compiled in 2 seconds … probably more like 2 minutes… but still, it’s a far cry from 20 minutes
… My PC SDK applications do NOT have this problem… they compile VERY quickly.
Let me know…
thanks
Resolution!..
PlatformVerificationTask … google it… then disable it!

It works… 15 minute compile times reduced to 3 seconds
Think it has something to do with using System.windows.forms components instead of ABB.Robotics.Tps.Windows.Forms components… and apparently, VS may not make sure the compents are compatable with a smartphone… but at this point I don’t care
… rediculous
