Hi,
Im using C::B with VC toolkit 2k3 for a while now and always wanted to get debugging to work. So today i took the time, created some required libs from the dlls etc. but now i'm pretty stuck. I dont know much about using commandline debuggers and have no idea what to do.
As debugger i use the Debugging Tools for Windows (cdb.exe)
I wrote a pretty simple quicksort prog a while ago and thought i could use it to test debugging (other progs behave the same way if i try to debug them so it doesn't really matter).
Every time i start debugging it only gives me the following output:
Building to ensure sources are up-to-date

Debugger finished with status 1
No breaking on breakpoints or similar.
In the build options i enabled "Produce debugging symbols".
Btw. i use C::B rev 2687 nightly.
Did i miss something important? Any ideas?
/edit
ok seems like i just cant set breakpoints at some lines, others work. I can live with that though...
It basically works now for my small app. So ive tried to debug a bigger wxWidgets app, but i get no application window and the app seems just to be stuck at some point. If i try to step through it the little arrow marking the current line suddenly disappears on a function call and it doesn't seem to step into it. I'm pretty tired and will probably investigate further tomorrow...
