VS2005: Function evaluation disabled because a previous function evaluation timed out

Ok, I know this is not GIS related-stuff, but since I am an object-oriented programmer, I thought that my fellow programmers friends would appreciate this little tip !

If you ever encounter this error while debugging using VS2005:

Function evaluation disabled because a previous function evaluation timed out. You must continue execution to reenable function evaluation.

After a lot of investigation, I found out that this a bug in the VS2005 environment. This behavior seems to be corrected with VS2008. Nevertheless, here is a small workaround that does the trick.

Try to close the “Autos” and “Locals” debug windows, if they are currently shown. That solved the problem, in my case.
