VS2008 in DEBUG mode - Didn't close command-line window when stop debugging

[Jauch]

Hi,

I use VS2008 and intel fortran 11 on Windows XP SP3.

After I did the update SP1 for the VS2008, I know have a litle problem when stop a debugging session...

If I am executing the code step-by-step and "stop" the debug execution, the command-line window (of proggram execution) do not close. I can't close the window even in task manager and the windows do not shut down anymore...

The only way to interrupt the execution of the program in midle of a debug session without have this weird results is to close the command-line directly, wait to windows tell me the window is not respond and press the YES button to close anyway. Then, the VS2008 says that an error raised and stop the debugging execution withou any visible problems (maybe there is a memory leak, but not shure).

Someone already have this problem?

Maybe I must install the intel only after apply the SP1 to VS2008?

Thanks!

I see that http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/showthread.php?t=72245 seems to discuss something similar. The order of installing SP1 should not matter. I haven't seen others report this issue, though.

I'll take a look :)

Thanks Steve!

This issue, if I understand your description, sounds like the same issue I had and addressed by creating a thread in this forum. The title of that post dated February 19, 2010 is: '"Stop Debugging" stops debugging but does not terminate and close debug execution window.'

One of the replies to that postled me to a microsoft forum which indicated that a Windows Automatic Update KB978037 was likely the culprit and affects Visual Studio regardless of the compiler being used. I set a restore point and uninstalled the update and resolved my problem.

Here is the link to the thread that I mentioned in my earlier reply:

Note: for some reason, at least on my system, the link contains an inappropriatespace which should not be there - "7 2119"

I have reported the link problem.

Thanks to all.

The problem really was that hot fix (with SP1 installed).

I uninstalled it and everything is working know :)

Thanks!
