Hi,

I just downloaded the release version of 7.5 and tried to use the new features. According to the YouTube video you've posted in the blog, I just hit F12 to go to the decombiled definition? That doesn't work for me, it still goes to the metadata code like without Reflector.

Then I tried the "Go To Decompiled Definition" command from the context menu on various items (classes, methods, ...) from various assemblies (.NET and third party), but it never does anything. No error, no action, nothing. The task manager shows about 10 % CPU usage for about a second and that's it.

And the "Open In .NET Reflector" still has the same bug I described here: http://forums.reflector.net/questions/247/open-in-net-reflector-not-jumping-to-typemember

Please help, I'd really like to use that new features, they look great in the video ;-)

edit: Could it be a license problem? I have VSPro, but on the first start of 7.5 it showed a dialog asking to install the VS Addin, and this dialog mentioned that I could try all features in the trial version.

I think the wording in the initial add-in dialog is an oversight. I've just applied the update and got the dialog mentioning my "30 day trial", but Reflector is still activated.

Thanks Richard - I've passed that on.

Please can you tell us what the ".NET Reflector/About .NET Reflector" menu displays?

Thanks - that looks fine.

Please can you drop an email to nick dot maidment @ red-gate dot com to let us us know which operating system and visual studio edition you're using. Clive and I would like to try and arrange a phonecall and/or screensharing session if possible?

Looks like this was a problem parsing the code links, we're working on a patch for this now.

(Feb 16 at 09:01) nick_maidment ♦♦

@nick_maidment If this will then work for me, how will F12 behave? Will it always go the the decompiled definition? If yes, is it possible to disable this? Because I'd like to continue using F12 like before (go to metadata) and only use "Go To Decompiled Definition" when I'd really need to see the code.

For now yes, it will always go the the decompiled definition. While the behaviour isn't configurable yet, we're definitely looking at this for the future.

@nick_maidment Can you share any information on when this will be configurable? Will it still be in 7.5.x or only 7.6 or 8.0?

Not as yet I'm afraid - though I have logged it a ticket number RP-2614 so we don't forget it. It's unlikely to be going into a version of 7.5 though.
