WinUAE GUI Debugger "Not Responding"

Radertified · 05 December 2020, 01:06

I don't expect this to be fixed because there's no interest in maintaining the GUI code for the WinUAE debugger, but I'll report it anyway because it annoys me

In the debugger, double click on somewhere to change something, such as a memory address. Keep that input field open and switch to a different program. Then switch back to the debugger. WinUAE freezes and must be closed.

It happens to me a lot when I forget to press enter on the input field and I switch to my notepad to look at what bytes I need to paste into memory.

See this GIF.
In the first part, I open up the input field, make my change and press enter, switch away and return. All good.
Then I open up the input field, switch away and return. I haven't pressed enter on the field. WinUAE freezes.

I've verified this happens in WinUAE 4.1.0 and 4.4.0 on 2 different machines.

Not a big deal but thought I'd report it.

Fixed in next beta. (No, it does not mean it has become supported

)

I definitely didn't expect to see a fix to this one.

Thanks so much, Toni!
