Appcrash: WinUAE has stopped working (winuae-gdb.exe 4.4.0.0) [KS 1.3]

[jbilander]

Hello, thanks for this awesome project. I've just tried it out with a fresh install from marketplace (v1.0.0) and wrote a simple helloworld program. It works as expected but winuae-gdb.exe crashes after a while, sometimes after 15 seconds and sometimes a little later, a little random when it occurs but seem to always happen. It is highly reproducible. This is when running on A500 KS 1.3 (kick34005.A500) rom with or without debugging. If I close the winuae window by clicking [x] it freezes and hangs. Trying the same on A1200 KS 3.1 (kick40068.A1200) or KS 2.0 (kick37175.A500) works fine without any crashes and doesn't hang. I'm using a win 8.1 machine and latest VSCode 1.47.3 64-bit. The crash seems to be caused by different dll calls e.g. to ntdll.dll, details below, any clue what is causing this? Tried on KS 1.2 too and same problem there so problem seems to be tied to when using older Kickstarts.

Thanks for using my extension. Yeah, try not to exit your test program. Seems that's not handled by the debugger. It probably thinks the program's still running.

Ah, thanks! That worked better.
