Exception when setting the path mapping during quick debug (5.5R5, VS 16.10.2)

[SchodMC]

I tried to start a quick debug session to handle a core dump. I need to set the path mapping to jump to the source files. After adding them and clicking on OK I get the following exception:

 

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Details:

VisualGDB version: 5.5.105.4124
—————— System.NullReferenceException ——————
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at BSPEngine.XmlTools.GetFileNameUnderLocalAppData(String appdataSubdir, String nameBase, String extension)
at BSPEngine.XmlTools.SaveUnderLocalAppData[_Ty](_Ty obj, String appdataSubdir, String nameBase, String extension)
at VisualGDB.Add_In.QuickDebugPreset.Save()
trace=[BSPEngine.XmlTools.GetFileNameUnderLocalAppData:23, BSPEngine.XmlTools.SaveUnderLocalAppData:0, VisualGDB.Add_In.QuickDebugPreset.Save:11]

Is there anything that I can to to resolve that problem?

Hi,

This looks like your VisualGDB installation is corrupt. Please make sure you are using an unmodified installer and do not edit any files or registry entries.

If nothing helps, please attach a screenshot of the Help->About VisualGDB window.

I just installed the latest beta Version (5,6m Beta 3) and it didn’t help. Here’s the screenshot.

 

//EDIT: I also tried a repair installation – now change. I even don’t need to enter a path mapping. Just open the dialog for the mapping from the GDB Session pane and than click on ok (without entering or changeing nothing) brings up the error message.
