Debug not working for PowerShell scripts

Post by dsotnikov »

I have installed trial edition of PrimalScript Enterprise 4.5.557 and try to use on my Windows Vista computer to edit my PowerShell scripts.Editing seems to work fine. I can also run the scripts in the tool with no issues. However, debugging does not seem to work at all.When I click the Debug Script button, the Output window shows that the profile loads and then nothing happens. Not even the first line of code seems to get executed (I tried removing the profile and it did not help).All the Step Over/Into/etc. buttons are disabled.Setting breakpoints does not help either.Stop Script button is active. If I click Start Debug again I am being told that the debugging is already in progress - so it looks like debugger is just not responding somewhere.Am I missing something? Or is that a limitation of the trial version? Or a Vista compatibility issue? (Running as admin does not help.)

There is no PowerShell debugger. PowerShell itself, has a step execution mode, but PrimalScript does not have a built in debugger for PowerShell.

Oh, thanks. I didn't realize that. Thanks for the information.
