Defects fixed in Agilent VEE 8.01 update

A note on the "minidump" feature: Since Agilent VEE 7.0, we introduced a debugging feature called the minidump. If you encounter a VEE Serious Error (VSE) in Agilent VEE 7.0 or later version, you will be offered an opportunity to send Agilent a minidump, a file that contains information that can be very useful in helping Agilent VEE R&D determine the cause of the VSE so that we can fix it.

The minidump dialog also has data fields for your name and email address, so that we can contact you if we need more information or have ideas to help you with the problem. When you send a minidump to us, please consider providing this information.

If you are concerned about the privacy of your data when sending a mini-dump, please click the Help button on the minidump dialog to see what Agilent VEE puts into the minidump file and how we intend to use it.

Minidumps have helped us locate and correct numerous VEE defects since Agilent VEE 7.0 was introduced.

Defect numbers marked in blue in the list below were detected or corrected with the aid of minidumps. Please help us improve Agilent VEE by sending us your minidumps with your name and email address.

For defect 28687: we provide separate Association files VeerunVeeFileAssoc.reg and VeerunVxeFileAssoc.reg.
