Constantly having to reboot my (dev alpha) device while developing

Hello.

 

Im using Momentics, C++ cascades sdk: 10.0.10.263,  on Linux pc.

Typically I edit code, build, then click on run (or debug) and see how the app behaves/looks.

Then the cycle starts over.

 

Unfortunately Im getting at most about 1-5 cycles beforethe IDE complains that it cant connect to the target or somet similar message. The only thing which seems to help is to reboot the dev alpha device. This also involves retyping my password and then opening settings and resetting development mode, and then reenterimg my password again (since setting development mode to on requires that you also set a device password, and then that you reenter it!). This is -very- annoying and stunting my productivity greatly.

 

Is anyone else haing this trouble?

If I look at the icon for the app on the device after a failed "upload" then it looks "semi transparent" and I cant launch it on the device directly either.

 

It also doesnt seem to matter if I connect via usb or wifi.

 

Is there a way to upload an bar file directly to the device and install (eg via double click) it without using the sdk tools?

Re: Constantly having to reboot my (dev alpha) device while developing

use the TargetNavigator view, select your application process, right click and choose "deliver signal" SIGTERM.
This should clear your process.

Thanks very much.

 

That does the trick (much more conveniently than rebooting).

 

Incidentally if I manually close the app on the device before trying to (re) deploy then it seems to workaround the problem too.
