Visual Studio is not responding while using TypeScript
typescript, visual-studio-2012, web-essentials
Solution
Are you using the latest version of Web Essentials 2012? (2.0 at time of writing) And of TypeScript (0.8.1.1)? I had the same issue with an earlier combination of WE and TS 0.8.1, but it was fixed in a recent release.
WebEssentials can be configured either to compile on save, and/or on build. Go `Tools > Options > Web Essentials > TypeScript` in VS2012 and try toggling these switches and see if this helps.
Disable Web Essentials, go to the `Tools > Options` as described above, and try turning off `Compile TypeScript on save`. This way you can have all the benefits of WE without the performance hit
Update
WE 2012 has just ticked over to the next version: 2.1
Problem
I am using the typescript. I can create simple typescript samples and run. When i was creating complex type of codes, visual studio becomes not responding. Can any of you know the reason for this issue? The Performance tab on TaskManager takes approx 35%. Can any of you aware of this issue? Code i was implemented looks like below, ``` module myModule{ export class myClass implements myInterface{ // code to PartialUpdate, otalUpdate function declarations and // extra properties and methods } export interface myInterface{ PartialUpdate:void; TotalUpdate:void; } } ``` Note: Visual Studio becomes not responding while creating code itself, before starting build. I have used the following extensions: - MicroSoft Web Developer Tools, - Nuget Package Manager, - TypeScript for VS 2012 - VS Extensions for Windows Library for JavaScript and - Web Essentials 2012 And my system config is - Processor:Pentium Dual core 2.70GHZ - RAM: 4 GB - System type: 64 bit
