ArcGIS 10.0 Snippet Finder in Visual Studio 2008

isburns — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 21:55:08 GMT

Has anyone successfully used the ArcGIS Snippet Finder in Visual Studio 2008 Professional with C# for ArcGIS 10? In a VB.NET project I am able to search the snippet finder successfully, but in a C# project when I click on search the snippet finder just closes with no warning. I also noticed that in the Visual Studio Code Snippets Manager that for C# the ArcObjects path (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC#\Snippets\ArcObjects) was not present so I added it manually. It was present for Visual Basic however (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VB\Snippets\ArcObjects).

Anybody know what gives or how to get it working?

Thanks
Shea

This shouldn't been happening unless the installation is either corrupted or the installation did not complete successfully. I checked my machine and I see the snippets at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC#\Snippets. You can may be run a repair on the SDK installation.

The repair of the SDK installation fixed it. I didn't have any problems, warnings, or errors during the installation and it was a clean install on a new machine of both ArcGIS and Visual Studio so I'm still not sure what caused the problem initially. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion.

Hello,

I'm trying to access the Arc snippet finder but this error keeps showing :

"Invalid value of ='-1' is not valid for an 'index' parameter name :index "

I'll appreciate the help

Thanks
