Title: OutOfMemory Error with EA 12 and Visual Studio2013
Post by: stao on April 29, 2015, 09:02:46 am

Since EA 12 i always get a generic OutOfMemoryError when trying to debug my addin with Visual Studio 2013.
The error appears right after the EA starting icon shows up.
Never had a similar problem with older EA versions.

Is this bug known?
What can i do about it?

I've seen two reports sent in to our support address for this. (If you weren't one of those you're the third person who has reported it)

All I know so far is that it's only launching EA12 to debug an addin from VS2013. You can still attach to a running EA instance.

I don't know how VS2013 has changed from previous versions, but I don't know of any change in EA that should have caused anything similar.

Researched a bit further. There's a similar issue being discussed over on the Microsoft forums.

Visual Studio 2013 debugger change in behaviour causing issues debugging C++ apps (https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/303bfdd1-bfce-41dd-b456-279b4a15c077/visual-studio-2013-debugger-change-in-behaviour-causing-issues-debugging-c-apps)

All that means is that the issue impacts more than just EA 12. I still don't know why it works for EA 11.

I'm sorry, but I have to say that I don't think EA is doing anything wrong here. There's no significant difference to the startup between the versions, so I have to say the difference is VS2013.
