[SOLVED] Visual Studio debug failure

[andwilson]

Anyone else having problem to debug Amibroker DLL with Visual Studio 2012 or 2015 ?

When VS debuger starts Amibroker it gives the following message

The program '[6368] Broker.exe' has exited with code 3 (0x3).

If I launch Amibroker and from VS then try to attach to process,
both programs , Amibroker and VS, close without any notice.

Hello,

If you want to debug your DLL you need to use version 6.16 or earlier.

So it means we have to wait for final release 6.20, right?

[andwilson]

Only if the DLL you want to debug uses any feature introduced after 6.16

Well, I meant that I don't want to install multiple amibroker versions. I will test it once version 6.20 is going to be published in next few weeks.

I've checked with current 6.20.1 and debug is not possible

the support says it is blocked, but doesn't say it will be back ...

I guess it will be the same way as MT4 - you cannot debug from VS

Currently final statement by AmiBroker.com:

"If you need to debug your DLL you need to use version 6.16 or earlier. Newer versions are designed NOT to be debuggable to protect our intellectual property."

So ATM unfortunately it looks like to stay that way for any future release.

So I will tag this thread as being "SOLVED" (meaning it is solved in regards to being not a bug).
