Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,
purely for historical purposes.
If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming,
you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.
Debug Dynamic-Link Libraries (CVP/CVW Only)
◄Up► ◄Contents► ◄Index► ◄Back►
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Both CVP.EXE, the protected-mode version of CodeView, and CVW.EXE,
the Windows version of CodeView, can debug dynamic-link libraries
(DLLs). All code and symbols for DLLs are stored in the libraries
and are not linked with the main program until run time.
To debug a DLL, specify the library name with the
◄/L (Load DLL Symbols)► option on the ◄command line►.
In OS/2, you only need to specify /L for DLLs loaded with
DOSLOADMODULE. If you do not specify /L for DOSLOADMODULE DLLs,
you cannot set a breakpoint in the DLL until it is loaded.
In Windows, you can also load symbols for other applications (.EXE
files) you wish to debug.
