Compiling Issue. C#

Question

Got an issue.

When I recompile my code, non of the changes take effect. I've tried to add MessageBoxes, change labels, the color of text .. everything. When I recompile nothing changes, it seems to load old code.

Any idea what's going on? Is there a cache or anything?

Answer 1

I've had this issue when I had a GAC'd version of the same DLL that I tried to debug. During load, the runtime would pick up the version from the GAC rather than the one I just compiled.

Answer 2

Are you sure you are running the same code you changed? Try single steppings through the app rather than run.
