VC++ : How to Debug a DLL ????

Vipul Pathak · Nov 9, 2001, 14:01

Hi !!

I am Writting a DLL in VC++. This is Being Used in VB. I've Tested the DLL in VC++, it works fine. But when i used it in VB, It is not functioning well. I want to check, what values are passed to the DLL by the VB Project. To Test the DLL with VB, what should i do ? I've Build an EXE of VB Project.

While Debug Session of DLL in VC++ I specified the VB EXE to Run. That Fine. But, the Breakpoints in VC++ Program are Activated and Program stops after its execution.

HELP ME PLEASE.

Hi Vipul, Do this.

1.Open your DLL project in VC++ 2.Go to "Project|Settings..." Menu item and select the "Debug tab" 3. In the list box "Category" select "General". This is generally default. 4. In the test box "Executable for debug session", enter the path of your VB executable. 5. Set your breakpoints and then press F5 to run it. 6. The program will break into your DLL

Be sure to compile your DLL with "debug info"

Hope this helps!! <IMG SRC="rolleyes.gif" border="0">
