Debug Start is SOOO SLOW!
Posted by Barb at 9/26/2004 10:17:02 AM
Does anyone have this problem? I have a really nice PC, with plenty of space & RAM, but my debugger is so very slow to start up in VS.NET 2003.

Single stepping / breakpoint problem
Posted by Arpad Muranyi via .NET 247 at 9/23/2004 6:44:30 PM
Forgive me for asking a question that may be too basic, but I am relatively new to C++. I am noticing that when I single step, the arrow will not stop on the correct lines in some places, as if it was out of synch. I can't set breakpoints on the lines the single stepper "overlooks" either. ...more >>

Posted by Barb at 9/23/2004 6:21:05 AM
This is weird. I was debugging along, trying to get ASP.NET working, and I was using the Command Window in the debugger to evaluate expressions & variables. It worked fine. Now all of a sudden, the first character in the command window defaults to ">", and it won't let me type over it, so i...more >>
