Lost some files in compiling

ShaningYu — Fri, 17 Sep 2010 14:53:57 GMT

I just changed another CPU and then I re-compiled my Flewviewer project (based on ESRI's V1.3 w/ customization). However, after compiling, some images are not loaded into the \bin-debug\...\images\icons\ folder. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks.

Shaning,

Sometimes that just happens and you have to manually copy the files from your src folder into your bin-debug.

From http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257046, I guess that the problem is due to the reason stated in that post:
The folder that you are attempting to copy has a path that exceeds 250 characters. Or, the folder that you are attempting to copy contains subfolders and the full path to one or more of the subfolders exceeds 250 characters.
In that post, it also mentions that:
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

You recommended approach: manually copy the files from your src folder into your bin-debug.
The files missed are several images. I used your approach. It works for some images that display on the map, but for some of images that do not display on map. Stranger.
