Gaudi Guide:  Debugging

Windows

Debugging the Gaudi apps is somewhat tricky because in Visual C++ disables all the break points set within the code that is part of a shared library (DLL).  Therefore you need to step into the application past the configure stage before you can re-enable your break points. Currently the best procedure for doing this is as follows. 

• Set a breakpoint in your main program at the line:
  • status = appMgr->run();
• Step into until you pass "sc = configure( );" in the Application manager.
• Now set your breakpoints

There is also a macro available that will step past the configure line in the Application manager and pop up the breakpoint  window if you start while at the "status = appMgr->run():" line.
