Whats up with that...  Like you have a choice?  Select "No..... its not a 
compiler error?"

It should be "Ok"... or better yet "Sorry!"

the application is compiled and builded anyway
If you choose "No"..... RB still does nothing and the application is still 
compiled and builded anyway 

Very useful

Ah sorry I didn't catch the humor, I don't know if this is because of my 
understanding of English or because I'm busy thinking I'll have to review 5 
thousand lines of code to find what was wrong

Posts: 102              That reminds me of some forensic software...

It would sometimes get stuck in what seemed like an eternal loop (left for 1 
weeks, it still kept trying to process data which should take an hour max). 
Before you wonder - I was on vacation for a week, not sat idle.

Anyway.... If you tried to cancel the loop, you could see on the title bar 
"Cancelling......". That too got stuck in an eternal loop. 

If you hit cancel again, you were given the ever so helpful message "Would you 
like to cancel the cancelling operation".

If you hit yes and then tried to cancel again, you were greeted with "Would you 
like to cancel, cancelling the cancel operation". I was never quite sure 
whether it was someones humour or a serious question.
