STVD debugging of C source with spaces in path

I'm using STVD 4.3.0 and trying to debug C source that contains spaces in the path - e.g., ''c:\my project\trunk\source.c''. Everything builds, loads, runs, etc., but I can only debug in assembly. And while that is fine some of the time, it can be a bit tedious. In the debug source view, all the C source references show as something like ''C:\MY:18'' where 18 is the line number. Any tips or tricks to fix?

IIRC, this only started happening when I switched from using the Cosmic compiler to Raisonance

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your report.

This problem has been sucessfully reproduced in the Raisonance Labs, and has been transmitted to the R&D team so that they can fix it in the future.

A new RKit-STM8 is expected very soon now, but we will not have enough time to integrate any fix, as the validation phase is already pretty much finished. So the fix will appear in the next release (which is not yet planned)

Best Regards,

Hello Eric,

Can you try the previous version of STVD: STVD 4.2.1?

It seems there is a problem for pathnames with white spaces in version 4.3.0.

There is one simple lesson to learn from this:

Never

have spaces in

any

pathnames associated with a software development project!

It is just asking for trouble!
