Running console application in VS.net beta 1

[HKILP7M8]

Anybody know how to run a console app in VS.net 2005 Beta 1?

In 2003 I simply chose to "Start without debugging", in 2005 the window appears and closes right away. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Could you post the code for the application in question as it should work the same under VS 2005 Beta 1.

I'm trying to run this very simple console app.

 

using System;

 

namespace Ch03EX01

{

/// <summary>

/// Summary description for Class1.

/// </summary>

class Class1

{

/// <summary>

/// The main entry point for the application.

/// </summary>

static void Main(string[] args)

{

int myInteger;

string myString;

myInteger = 1960;

myString = "\"myInteger\" is";

Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}.", myString, myInteger);

}

}

}

Well... as it only show 1 line... as soon as the line is shown.... the application close... lolllll

you'll have to open the command prompt and open it from there or put a Breakpoint to see the result :p

 

have fun !!!

Arch4ngel is right, the application does what you want and as it is finished, it exits immediatly again.

 

In VS 6 (havent tried it VS.net yet) if you ran an console application as exe (so not under the debugger with F5, but start it throught the exclamation mark icon CTRL+F5) it would pause at the end of a console application and ask you to press enter to close it.

Havent tried this in VS.NET so I dont know if this trick still works in VS.net 2005

Other solution: ask for some userinput in the last line of the main. So it will wait on the userinput before closing the console.

In VS.net 2003 that did not happen, you just hit Start without debugging and there you go.

Well.. maybe... but It happened to me a lot in 2002 so... I figured It was the same... :p
