    Break points not stopping code on modeless forms

    I am using acad 2012, and VS 2010 (C#) on win 7 64 bit.

    I made a form, and showing it as modeless via Application.ShowModelessDialog... as recommended by everyone and that works fine.

    I have a button that does something, and I set a break point right on the first line of code for its callback.

    The button runs fine, but VS is not stopping at the break point.

     

    Is there a different technique required when debugging modeless forms?

    thx

    Hi,

     

    have you set Framework4 as the current Framework for your project?

    If you don't want FW4 then a good point to look at: >>>here<<<

    And NEXTFIBERWORLD could be a point-of-interest, look to >>>this issue<<<

    yah, setting framework to 4 did the trick.

    The other options Kean mentioned are less desirable.

    Wish I could stick with 3.5, as 4 is not always on a given machine.

    Guess I can switch back before deploying.

     

    Thanks a bunch for your reply, i was worried about this last night.

    Hi,

     

    >> Wish I could stick with 3.5, as 4 is not always on a given machine.

    If AutoCAD 2012 is installed, then Framework 4 is installed, it does not run without! :smileywink:

    I lose track of what needs what. I program for 2009 and 2012 so I will just target each project for correct framework.

    Hi,

     

    >> I lose track of what needs what

    check the bottom of >>>this link<<<

    ...and for 2012 you need 4.0
