VS2015 VSIX System.OutOfMemoryException

问题

I created a new VSIX project and added a new item -> Extensibility -> Custom Tool Window

Then I tried to build, but it gave an error:

I did not edit any code, so why am I getting this error?

System : Windows 10
editor : Visual Studio 2015
.NET : 4.5

回答1:

I also meet this problem. It happens after added new tool window.

From the exception stack, I discover that the error is caused by reading image. So, I go to check the image created along with tool window. Finally, I discover that xxxx.png is a bad file and cannot be opended.

After deleted xxxx.png and commented bitmap node of xxxx.png in package.vsct, the VSIX project build successfully.
