It appears that the Ice Builder for Visual Studio was updated on Friday 2016-02-26. Starting today we are seeing this error when building C# projects with Ice Builder:

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8000FFFF): Catastrophic failure (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))

    Hi Caleb,

    The failure occurs while trying to retrieve the project type GUID, can you try with this update https://github.com/zeroc-ice/ice-builder-visualstudio/releases/tag/v4.2.2-pre

    You will need to uninstall Ice Builder from Visual Studio and then install IceBuilder.vsix from the above page.

    I will publish the update once you confirm that it fixes the issue.

    No dice :( We get almost the same exception, though the stack trace is ever so slightly different at the bottom. See attached.

    Sorry I uploaded the wrong .vsix build, can you try again I uploaded a new file to same location https://github.com/zeroc-ice/ice-builder-visualstudio/releases/tag/v4.2.2-pre

    Also I'm a bit surprised with the exception, can you clarify what project types are used in your solution?
  • cepsteincepstein Member Caleb EpsteinOrganization: Volant TradingProject: Options Trading System ✭
    This fixes it. Thanks!

    Hi,

    I'm glad it worked, can you clarify what project types are part of your solution, I'm trying to determine if there is additional fixes required.

    Best Regards,

    Jose

    Not sure precisely what you're asking. We build DLLs and EXEs from C# (some generated-from-Slice) code. Is this enough info?

    We have released version v4.2.2 that include this fix and a fixes a few other issues, the new version is already available in the Visual Studio Extension Gallery.

    Thanks for reporting the issue.
