Question

When starting the debugger, Visual Studio just hangs for about 20 seconds, then terminates the debugging session, without any warning.

The 32-bit version works fine, but is no good if our plugin uses 64-bit native code from a third party.

As a developer, I'm sticking with Petrel 2012.1 on my workstation for the time being - might the issue be fixed in a later release?

Was it helpful?

Solution

It's not a bug but a feature – the license protection mechanism. But you can attach your debugger to Petrel 2012.1 64 bit when Petrel's UI is visible, the initial steps only are protected from debugging.

OTHER TIPS

But of course you would still need to use 32-bit version of Petrel if you want edit-and-continue while debugging: Why doesn't Edit and Continue work on the x64 CLR?
