PRB: Debugger Hangs If Remote Connection Is Lost

MORE INFORMATION

The Visual C++ development environment may be terminated through the Task List, or by using PVIEW.EXE. PVIEW.EXE is a graphical Process Viewer, providing an interface through which processes (and threads) may be examined and modified. PVIEW.EXE ships with Visual C++ versions 2.0 and 4.0.

To use PVIEW to terminate the Visual C++ session:

1. For Visual C++ version 2.0: Start PVIEW by clicking the PVIEW icon in the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2.0" group, or by running PVIEW.EXE from the <CD_drive>:\MSVC20\BIN directory.
   
   For Visual C++ version 4.0: Start PVIEW by clicking the PVIEW icon in the "Microsoft Visual C++ 4.0" group, or by running PVIEW.EXE from the <CD_drive>:\MSDEV\BIN\WINNT directory.
   
   In both cases, PVIEW may not have been installed, so you may need to run it from the distribution CD.
2. For Visual C++ version 2.0, select MSVC from the list of processes. For Visual C++ version 4.0, select MSDEV from the list of processes.
3. Click the Kill Process button.
