How to debug a DLL?

[pitti platsch]

As the title says, how can I debug a Win32-DLL?
I had no problem debugging a executable, but when I put Breakpoint into my DLL-code and activate the option "Produce debugging symbols [-g]" in the compiler settings window, the code does not stop at the breakpoint.
I even have copied the host application into the folder where my DLL is produced.

thx

You might experience the bug described here:

There I have posted a partial work-around, too. This is under investigation currently.

With regards, Schnatterrinchen... sorry... Morten. ;-)

Oh, ok I think I have understood the workaround, but I don't want to compile the changed debuggerstate.cpp for own use because then I would not be able to use later nighly builds.
Instead, I wait until the problem is fixed officially.

Ps: Why was this else-block included in debuggerstate.cpp, if it does not work?

That's exactly the question. To be honest: I don't know. It actually *should* work and it is a good solution to use relative path's there, but the debugger seems not to recognise it for some obscure reason.
