Hi,

Given the following code:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
Debug.Assert(false, "Oopsy");
}

If I run the code above using a computer running Visual Studio 2005, I get
the assert message popup and when I click on the "Retry" button on the
popup message immediately go into debugging mode.

If I do the exact same thing under Visual Studio 2008, I get the assert
popup message but when I click on the "Retry" button I get a message stating
"There is no source code available for the current location." If I then
click the "OK" button on that message box I then enter debugging mode.

The problem here is that I don't think I should be getting the "There is no
source code available for the current location." message box.

Is there something I am doing wrong here? Is this a bug on Visual Studio
2008 or is just some setting that I have to change. Do you guys also
experience the same behavior?

Thank you.
