    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Adding a program during a debug         *
    *                      session of an interactive program       *
    *                      would result in a hang.                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Adding and removing a program to an RDi debug session would
    cause the UI to freeze. This was due to a threading issue as
    the job was run on the UI thread.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The job has been moved off the UI thread and thus the hang no
    longer occurs.
    

Temporary fix
