A WPF application. Debugging. Stop on break point. After few seconds Visual Studio (2008) spontaneously aborts the application execution. It is never mind what I do after stop on break point: even if I do nothing.
With very simple test WPF application everything is OK with debugging.
Any ideas?
When an application aborts that quickly without warning it's usually the result of a stack overflow in the process. This makes it difficult (if even possible) to do tear downs operations like bringing up Dr Watson.
One thing I didn't quite understand is if the application or VS is suddenly stopping.
If it's the application there is likely a StackOverflow occurring in such a way that VS can't trap the exception. Try disabling Just My Code debugging, turn off implicit function evaluation and break on first chance exceptions. That should hopefully help reveal the problem.
