VO2740: debugging with .exe on network drive: show variable content wrong

Post by kitz »

Hello,
because of security policies only exe's under program files and on network drives are allowed to connect to our sql servers.
This is enforced by WIP (Windows Information Protection).
As I deploy my internal programs on a network drive anyway, this is no problem.
But if I try to debug an exe running on a network drive I often see valid content of variables neither by hovering over a variable nor by evaluate expression (Ctrl-X). E.g. there is a variable containing an array and it shows '.t.' or some statements later '%'.
Of course I can insert text boxes to show the values and in this case I see correct values for the above example (Array address and count of members).
Any clues how to fix this?
Conversion to X# is in progress, but still a long way to go...

VO 2740. That is from 2005. Really ? That was in the Windows XP days.
I fear that it will be difficult to fix that.

Robert,
I know, but just wanted to know if there are tips I could try.
I have to do some modifications every month but I have not yet finished converting to X#. So these minor changes take more time which I would like to spend on conversion...
