Hello,

Visual Studio 2005 C++ Windows XP Pro

I have a sample application that I am testing, that links with boost libraries.

However, the program runs ok. However, when I try and stop the program by clicking the 'Stop Debugging' button. The program ends, but the console window remains open. So I have many of them, as during my testing I am starting and stopping the application.

Even when I try and close it by clicking the close button it has no affect. And it doesn't seem to appear under task manager when the program ends.

The only way I can close them if I reboot windows.

I am thinking it might be a thread that has not closed, and maybe that is keeping the console windows open.

Many thanks for any advice,
