I am using visual c++ and have multiple dlls in my solution. When i change 1/2 files and build that dll then all breakpoints added in other files of that dll does not hit.
To fix this I need to rebuild that dll again which is quite time consuming.
Can you please suggest how to overcome this issue?
I have VS2015 installed too and I have never faced this issue in VS2015.

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.
I failed to reproduce this issue. If this issue is reproducible, could you please share us detailed steps/sample code snippets to reproduce this issue and check further?

Sorry but i can not share code snippets with you.
Steps are very simple. I Have a solution which contains more than 50 projects. When I Clean build any of the project every breakpoint in every file of the project hits. But as soon as I change some code in any file(e.x. xyz.cpp)of that project and do build only then breakpoint of edited file hits(xyz.cpp) but all other breakpoints applied in other files of this project shows:
Again when i rebuild the the project then all breakpoints starts hitting again.
Thanks
Antriksh

Does removing the hidden .vs folder in your solution folder and renaming ComponentModelCache folders in this directory:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\17.0_XXXXXXXX\work? Can you confirm that if this issue is reproducible in a newly created solution/project? -

I don't have any 17.0_XXXXXXXX folder at the mentioned location instead i have 16.0_XXXXXXXX folder. Shall I rename it? If yes, Is there any specifc name to be given to 16.0_XXXXXXXX folder?

Yes, I’m sorry, 17.0 is for VS 2022, 16.0 is for VS 2019, you need to rename 16.0_XXXXXXXX folders. The name is specific but the eight characters are randomly generated, you need to rename all the 15.0_XXXXXXXX folders.

2023-05-31T06:22:39.98+00:00 Sorry I got confused.
- Do I need to rename 16.0_XXXXXXXX folders or 15.0_XXXXXXXX or both?
- What should be the new name?

2023-05-31T09:02:43.8966667+00:00 Hi @Antriksh Kakkar ,
Renaming 16.0_XXXXXXXX folders is enough, as the issue only appears in VS 2019(VS 2022-17, VS 2019-16, VS 2017-15, VS 2015-14...).
Actually the purpose is to remove those folders, renaming does the same, but safer and quicker. So any new name is correct.
