Debug Dynamic-Link Libraries (CVP/CVW Only)

     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.
