[Solved in 1412.10 SP1]Digital/Analog/Free memory reports, no longer working

Hello,

I've just realised that these windows are no longer updating. For the Digital IO Report window, it is just blank, no more "LEDs". For the other Report windows, the graph axes are drawn, but there is no values displayed

I'm not sure when it happened, is it when I updated VM to latest version, or is it when I switched from Trial to Licensed (thank you again Tim!), I don't really know.

Breakpoints are still working, The Expression window is still working.

If I use another serial terminal, I see these lines:
Quote:
39:348:|7781|_VMDPR

So it looks like it should work.. but doesn't Sad.

Oh and I noticed that sometimes, these messages also appear in VM's Serial window! Rarely, but when it happens, it will print many of these messages, like if your parser "crashed", until VM is restarted.


Project properties Micro Debug = Full, Report Analog, Report Digital, Report Free memory are True.

To make sure, I also tried with a blank project with just one breakpoint inside loop(), same problem.

I also tried to set a breakpoint When Hit's message to "@ReportAnalog", but all it does is print this message in the Micro Debug Trace window.

And of course I also tried to connect my arduino with the usb cable (and changed the com port accordingly) instead of Bluetooth.

Any idea what could be wrong?

Hi,

The broken messages mean the arduino buffer is getting filled and it can't send the packets fast enough.

Is ThrottleEnabled=True in project properties? That's the default so it should be True?

Thanks

Okay thanks

There is another property by the ThrottleEnabled called ThrottleMs. Please set it to 150 and try again

By the way, if you use the project properties to enable visualizations then there is little point in using breakpoints to populate the visualizations and same in reverse.

So, I have uninstalled VM, removed all settings I could find (AppData, registry) and reinstalled previous version I had (beta 14.11.1901), the visualizations are working with previous version.

I uninstall again, reinstalled latest version (I tried both release and beta), visualizations not working!
