I have a windows forms project. It has a main form derived from System::Windows::Forms::Form
which I can open in designer without any problems. If I try and close designer though, it kills Visual Studio (v2008 with SP1).
The form includes a tab control which has pages with various System::Windows::Forms::UserControl
derived forms. So I'm guessing the fault lies somewhere in the main form or one of those sub-components. The problem is I don't know how I can narrow it down at all?
I've tried debugging from another copy of the developer environment, but I can't get the break points to work.
Any suggestions on how to attack this problem would be very gratefully received!
[EDIT] By trial and error I've narrowed it down to a single System::Windows::Forms::UserControl
derived control, and the crash only occurs when that control is nested within a System::Windows::Forms::TabControl
. Is there something the tab control does when it closes which could cause the crash perhaps?
