Visual Studio 2010 Debug not stopping at return 0;
Hello, I am beginning to learn C++ from books and in doing so preparing for college courses on the subject. Right now I am trying to get familiar with Visual Studio and make sure it's working.
I searched the issue but a plethora of different situations that cause it were extremely overwhelming, and after playing with a dozen different settings to no effect I posted here.
I am running the application as an administrator under Windows 7.
Start Debugging finds and stops at syntax errors correctly but at the end of my simple program - return 0; it does not stop and closes the win32 console application.
Start without debugging produces the expected "Press any key . . ."
No question is too stupid, but compared to much of the topics on here this one is... stupid. So pre-emptive apologies for that & any insight is much obliged.

Can you post the main function? I've never seen that kind of issue between release vs debug configs.
The IDE automatically stops with "Press any key . . ." when you run an app, but not when you debug it.
Ha. Well I guess they figured if you are debugging you can set breakpoints. Funny. So don't forget to set a breakpiont at the return 0; Stoooopid design.
Thanks a lot for that. I was tweaking hard because it seemed like VS08 didn't function that way.
