How can I recover from a RVD crash when running automated tests?

An unexpected crash can occasionally prevent RealView Debugger from closing properly, leaving orphan processes running on your system.

This can prevent subsequent scheduled/scripted tests from completing, until these processes are terminated and the debugger cleanly restarted.

To resolve this problem you can call the "quitrvd.exe" utility in your test script to ensure that no RVD processes are running before the next test is started. This utility is installed as part of RVDS v3.0 and can be found in the "Utilities" directory.
