Description

I have two similar boards, breakpoints do not work with the first one, but work with the second one. Actually it throws an exception in both cases when console app finished, but for the second board I have working breakpoints.
As you can see the working (second) board has mono version 4.2.2. I tried this for the first board, but it does not work, finally I tried mono 4.4.0.
Do you have any idea how I can have working breakpoints at the first board?

MonoRemoteDebugger.1.log.txt - does not work bp
MonoRemoteDebugger.2.log.txt - work bp

Do you have firewall? The log said Network is unreachable.

[denis-ya]

No, I do not have firewall, the board connected to the laptop by Ethernet cable without any switches.
I have just found that my working board has pdb2mdb file like
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/mono --gc=sgen /usr/lib/mono/4.5/pdb2mdb.exe "$@"
and non-working board
exec /usr/bin/mono --gc=sgen /usr/lib/mono/4.5/pdb2mdb.exe "$@"
I have modified this file and now breakpoints work on both boards, but still throw an exception when application finished.

@denis-ya So Do you mean that pdb2mdb file location was different between two boards? and so make it same path, /usr/lib/mono/4.5/pdb2mdb.exe?

[denis-ya]

No, location was the same. But non-working board had pdb2mdb without
#!/bin/sh
It works now, when I added this line. But still throws an exception when app completed and not all of breakpoints work. It stops on some breakpoints, but for some breakpoints it does not stop.

@denis-ya Are you sure it runs only in main thread?

[denis-ya]

Sorry, what do you mean "main thread"? Some part of code I want to debug is running from async methods. Do you mean it does not work?

@denis-ya Now, current version does not support breakpoints in user thread. #22

[denis-ya]

OK, thanks. So this is expected behavior, right?

[techcap]

@denis-ya yes, but it will take some time to fix it.
