How to proceed after Delphi 2010 "Debug session in progress. Terminate?" message?

I am getting a lot of occurences of the message "Debug session in progress. Terminate?" when trying to re-run my application after routine editing in Delphi 2010. My Application has already been run (maybe several times) and quits without any problem back into my editing mode, yet after completing my edit sometimes the Run option is disabled and I get this "Debug session in progress. Terminate?" message. I then have to be careful to save my edits, and then use th开发者_如何转开发e Windows 'Close Window' to abort Delphi and restart the IDE. My Application is quite large and uses FastMM4. I'd like to eliminate problem but would be happy with a neater way of detatching the debugger from whatever it is latched on to. Any suggestions?

Incidently, my App compiles fully (and is released using) Delphi 7 in which I have no problems at all, not even when I Ctrl-F2 from within the middle of executing my App.

Chances are some thread in your app is still running keeping your appl from terminating fully and thus keeping the debug session alive. Depending on the state of your app and the rest of the app's termination process, you could in that case still have "running" in the IDE's caption.

frogb's question about hitting Ctrl-F2, was (I am guessing) to see whether that was indeed the case. If you hit Ctrl-F2 when your app is fully terminated, nothing should happen. However, if some thread is somehow still active and keeping the debug session alive, Ctrl-F2 should terminate it and if your IDE's caption showed "running" that should now disappear.

The fact that you can hit Ctrl-F2 in D7 even when your app is still running and have it end correctly is to be expected. That is exactly what Ctrl-F2 is for: ending all still running threads (pretty roughly I might add).

Are you sure your application and all its threads have completely terminated? What happens if you press Control-F2 when you get back to edit mode? Is there any change in the main window caption when you do this?

I can work around the problem (it does not happen too much) but I have further information showing the problem in some captured images. This is what I see after the program is stopped..note the greyed out 'Detatch from program'..

Then this next set of messages appear, leading to being forced to terminate the IDE...

Perhaps the menu item Run/Detach from Program?
