CVI 2013 Attach to process very slow

[simonnj]

I am trying to debug an application in CVI 2013 but when ever I try to start debugging it takes approximatly 10 minutes for the debugger to start the debuggable exe.

I have tried starting the debuggable exe myself and then doing Run-> attach to process and have found that it is the building of the process list that is taking a very long time when I press refresh process list.

I have tried doing a repair on my installation but this has not helped.

Has anyone else had any experience of this problem or got any ideas to fix it?

Thanks

Hello,

Check if you have teh problem with duplicated watchpoints described here.

I've had a look at my .cws file and found that there are over 4000 watchpoints! So that would probably be the problem.

I've deleted them but not yet had a chance to compile and execute.

The watchpoints do have a habit of getting duplicated, I've not yet searched for a solution for that.

Many Thanks

Simon
