Visual Studio crashes for C++ After installing 11.1.060

[dajum]

After installing 11.1.060, when I set a breakpoint in other VS2008 projects that only have only C++ code, when debugging and the breakpoint gets hit Visual Studio crashes. Uninstall 11.1.060 and the crashes do not occur. It seems I can debug my FORTRAN projects without problems, but not C++ projects. Is this a known issue? It is very repeatable for me. I'm running on a 64 bit machine, running 64 bit apps. Vista Ultimate 64 is the OS. VS2008 SP1 installed.

Thanks,

Dave

There is no Intel mentioned in VS under Additional Products.

It still crashes with the DLLs unregistered and the library being called C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Compiler\11.1\060\libx

Note I didn't recompile or link my dll.So I wonder how renaming a library directory changesanything.So I also renamed the bin to binx. It still crashes even with that.

I run the AutoCAD 2010 acad.exe executable. That loads my dll (which actually has the suffix .arx).

I wanted you to rename the LIB folder because that's where the Fortran run-time DLLs are. Is your DLL Fortran or C++? I'm trying to isolate the part of the Fortran install that is interfering. So far, I can't imagine what it would be.

Are you willing to attach a ZIP of your DLL? You can mark the reply private if you don't want others to see it.

I did the modify to remove the Parallel debugger, and it got an error, so I redid the modify with the "recommended settings" option in the window that opened.

Problem solved for me! Now why doesn't it work to have the parallel debugger installed? Problem for you guys!

Thanks for your help,

Dave

It certainly is. Update 6 is available now from the Intel Registration Center, so please try that and let me know what happens.

Installing 11.1.065 including the Parallel debugger still causes VS to crash when it hits a breakpoint. Uninstalling the parallel debugger fixes the issue. Using Modify to uninstall the parallel debugger seems to end with it thinking it might not have uninstalled correctly. I check it uninstalled correctly this time and it seems okay.

Ok, thanks. I am going to escalate this to the Parallel Debugger developers.

Steve,

Has this issue been resolved yet? I just installed on a new machine and got bit by it again.

Thanks,

Dave

I believe the issue is resolved, though there is not yet a newer update. This seems to be an unusual issue though - it doesn't affect many people. Of course if you're one of them....

Which VS version are you using?

Visual Studio 2008
