Hi, what is wrong?
I've been using visual cobol on windows 10 for ages and using the debugger. Suddenly breakpoints are ignored. This is really frustrating as I can't release a fix to a client without fully testing. It just will not stop on any breakpoints, even on the first line of programs. I'm running Exe, gnt, idy files.
On the top menus '>Start' has [DEBUG] selected. My main exe is 'Ad_Booker.exe' and it's 'DEBUG' tab has 'start external program '.... \DEBUG\Ad_Booker.exe'. The ad_booker.cbl program just runs another program called 'DMENU03A' as below and that program has a break on the first line - everything is compiled to gnt/idy as it always has been and the gnt/idy for the first program definitely exists in the DEBUG folder and i have tried emptying DEBUG and rebuilding the whole solution. I have tried breakpoints on other bits of cobol code - nothing works, the programs just run without stopping. I have rebooted the PC and done all the usual things one would normally tell a user to do!
Ad_Booker.cbl (i.e. the .exe) is just:
procedure division.
call "dmenu03a".
stop run.
Thanks, Linden
