Break points not stopping code on modeless forms

JamesMaeding — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 00:20:21 GMT

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.

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

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

thx

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

...and for 2012 you need 4.0
