Running normally, then stepping crashes
Using VC++ 6. I'm working on something that opens a window, and when I compile and run it (in debug mode) I can do all the things that I should be able to do by this point.
It opens a window that can take keyboard input and when 'enter' is pressed, it parses the input and does whatever it needs to.
But when I try to use the "Run to Cursor" debug command, without changing any code at all, the window starts up, an then it accepts the input and then when I press 'enter' the window minimizes itself and freezes up. Labelled as "not responding" in the windows task list.
And this happens without adding or recompiling the code. One time I just run it normally, the next time I use the "Run to Cursor" button.
Any ideas?? Cause I have zero.
Well the problem is that when you are running to cursor - I think it breaks at that part - so the app's execution is haulted. Try hitting F5 again to continue debugging and see if that helps.
God I hate when something like that happens.
Like when my code was crashing when run normally but when I stepped trough it it went over the crash point and worked fine. arrgh. Things like that happened to me more than once. I felt like my own code waged a little war against my self. Weird things, like just some parts of the code (within the same source file) just turned back to that same code but from a month ago (thus lacking some sutle changes a know I made in the past month of coding). Its like some fucking twilight/X-file source.

This can cause other programs to behave very slowly as well under Windows.
