Fox learn has to be one of the best tutorial channels I have seen in a long time

@simona6229 4 жыл бұрын

Just what I was looking for and helped a lot. If I could make one small suggestion and that's the target application should be called something like 'My Forms App' so it's much clearer when we're discussing the SetUp App and when the actual app being set up. But I'm being picky, I was still able to follow, just had to concentrate.

I've learned so much from your tutorials as a beginner, so thank you. One question though, as I'm not fully understanding the difference between debug/release. How do I update my program after changing code in VS?

@darrenhind9948 2 жыл бұрын

Is this the process after code change: Change from debug to release in config manager Rebuild Change back to debug Uninstall Reinstall ?

@schultemedia 2 жыл бұрын

@@darrenhind9948 Debug is with Debug information if some ooperations fail, like if you develop in VS and get an error. Release also removes all comments and stuff like that, it is better and a bit faster if you deploy your application.
