missing debugging information

Hi,

 

I have encountered some strange debugging behavior, so I decided that it might be caused by some corrupt debugging information and deleted the *.dbg file. Starting CVI (9.0, extended debugging mode) then results in a somewhat confusing popup window:

 

Unable to find debugging information file for... OK, this is correct. However, there is a checkbox 'ignore missing debugging info files', but it seems not to do anything. The behavior seems to be the same whether it is checked or not.

 

Moreover, no option is given to rebuild the debugging information - all I can do (except undeleting the *.dbg file using Windows explorer) is 'terminate execution', browse for a *.dbg file, or choose 'don't debug'... 

 

Obvious questions: 1) what is the purpose of the checkbox? 2) how am I supposed to regenerate the debugging information?

 

Thanks!

OK, one possibility to answer 2) is to delete the directory cvibuild.projectname, CVI then will automatically recompile all files in the project...
