64 bit debugging not working

[RobP]

I'm using Intel Visual Fortran Composer XE 2013 SP1 Update 3 and debugging in Visual Studio 2013 Update 2's IDE with this simple program:

    program Console1

    implicit none

    ! Variables
    integer(4) testInt
    ! Body of Console1
    print *, 'Hello World'
    testInt = 7
    end program Console1

When the EXE for this program is compiled with the "IA 32" (the Win32 platform) ifort compiler, the debugging works as expected. The watch on `testInt` changes from a random value to 7.

But, when I use the "Intel (R) 64" (the x64 platform) compiler by setting the project to the x64 platform, the debugger will stop at correct break points. But the watch on `testInt` reports "Undefined address" instead of 7. 

What's going on here? How can I enable correct debugging for 64 bit Fortran compilations? This is interfering with COM Server development where the COM client and server must be 64-bit.

This is a re-post of a private message to Steve so that other forum users can see it...

Sad to say, that fix is not the complete story. Attached is an image that shows an element of a complex type cannot be seen as a sub-structure, but when you break it out on its own, you can see it.

As a secondary issue, the sub-structure "SQLInfo%SQLSchema%fields" is an array which cannot be viewed unless you explicitly identify an element.

I hope you have a fix for this too :)

Cheers, Geoff

Hi Steve,

Could you please provide me also with the Fix; I love using Visual Studio and I am not ablt to update Visual Studio because of this issue because in our work we do lot of fortran coding as well. :(

Thanks

Could someone send me the fix?

Me and all my colleagues are stuck on this issue. And funny thing is that there is some problem with messages on Intel side so I can't find out if Steve Lionel received my message.
 

[Steven_L_Intel1]

Yes, our messaging system is broken. I'm just going to attach the fix here. Unpack the attached ZIP into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\Packages\Debugger  This will be fixed in Update 4.

Thank you!

Hi Steve,

I've just installed Update 4 and the fix is not in there.

So I copied the FEE.dll from the zip file above in this thread and 64-bit debugging is back to "normal".

Cheers, Geoff

[Steven_L_Intel1]

Hmm - I had been told it would be in update 4. But I now see that indeed it did not get put into that update - sorry. It is in the 2015/15.0 product.

All,

I was hoping the replacing of FEE.dll (my copy was dated 2014-04-12) would fix my 32 bit C++/Fortran debugging problem under VS2013.

I had already figured out that I would have to capitalize all variable names and use C++ notation on arrays (eg h2kflags(4) => H2KFLAGS[3]).

My Intel Fortran is Composer XE 2013 Update 4.

I miss hovering over a variable name to get the value or right clicking and Add Watch!

Any other solutions out there? Thanks!

[Steven_L_Intel1]

You aren't getting the Fortran debugging support enabled if you have to use C syntax. Is this an all-Fortran application or is there a managed code part?

Hi,

I have the same problem debugging 64bit applications. All parameters say 'Undefined variable ...'.

Hovering over variables does not show their values, etc.

I'm using

Does the Locals window show variables and their types? Show a screenshot.
