Try compiling it on your machine, just in case something got corrupted when you downloaded the file. Here the source code:

What happened to the File Browser in the version you just posted.

I just tried one from QB64 Home page, couldn't get it to work but at least it had a file browser.

It was running ctrl + o and browsed files picked one in Kiara Folder and agreed to default filename.vwatch.bas ran it and ran right into unable to compile message. Trying dev 1.5 156996b It had loaded all kinds of vWatch stuff seen in IDE

Also, vWATCH doesn’t play well with “Output exe to source folder”, but if the .vwatch.BAs file was properly output, you should be able to manually compile it and it’ll connect with the vWATCH interface.

Also notice that vWATCH is yet to be updated to deal with new QB64 syntax features - no DIM AS Type var-list, for example.

My screen shot shows a bas file dragged and dropped in from another folder, I didn't continue testing because for obvious reasons the image file couldn't be found.

Just to clarify a point, the bas file to debug should be in the QB64 Folder for best results?

Post by: FellippeHeitor on February 23, 2021, 08:47:25 am: Not necessarily. If vWATCH generates the .vwatch.bas file but warns you it couldn't compile it, you can still manually load it into the IDE and compile it/run it yourself. The resulting exe does not need to be in the same folder as QB64.
