Disable setting breakpoint at main

[ChangedDailyParticipant]

Hi

I am unable to disable breakpoint at main. This makes debugging certain projects impossible. I have had a lot of trouble with my standalone projects since upgrading to 5.4R6 some time ago.

This is the debug section of vgdbsettings:

I would greatly appreciate help in disabling this breakpoint!

Sorry, it looks like your support period has expired. Please consider renewing it here and we will help you get everything to work.

It was only after I renewed my subscription last year and updated VGDB that almost all my projects stopped working.

Well I’m pleased to say I managed to get this working myself eventually, just as well since it appears I’m on my own. If it helps anybody I think what fixed it was pressing “Rebuild MSBuild & Intellisense files for this toolchain” on the MSBuild settings tab.

 

[supportKeymaster]

Sorry, most likely you have changed some settings or installed a new version of a toolchain/BSP that was not compatible with the existing projects.

Although we do our best to keep VisualGDB releases backward-compatible, it is not possible for us to guarantee the same behavior for every external toolchain, SDK or library that could be possibly used with VisualGDB, sorry.
