There I show a trick which will help to solve this problem, but the runtime developers should not relax and must correct the connection loss bug. I need this not for raspberry pi. This is just an example which works not only for raspberry but for other linux platforms too.

A temporary solution to the problem. You need to create a global Boolean flag. Use it to free the file handle manually without leaving debugging (assign a hotkey, for example). When the handle is released, you can exit debugging.

This means that the runtime cannot properly close the handle of such file.

RaspberryPi B, CoDeSys 3.5.10.x

Example project.

You can try keyboard for example (you need to change path, see: ls /dev/input/by-path on your device):

fileName: string := '/dev/input/by-path/platform-3f980000.usb-usb-0:1.3:1.0-event-kbd';

Steps to reproduce the problem:

Login and download the project.
Run project.
Logout.
Build/Clean.
Login ... CoDeSys loses connection with runtime.

Worked with all events and not only with SysFileAsync library (CAA File with the same result).

So the question: Why CoDeSys 3.5.10.x loses connection in this case?

How to restore connection:

sudo /etc/init.d/codesyscontrol stop
sudo rm -R /root/PlcLogic
sudo /etc/init.d/codesyscontrol start
