- Is source level debugging of DOS applications possible using Borland C++
- 4.5? Trying to start the debugger for a DOS project results in a
- message along the lines of "Can only debug 16 bit Windows programs".
-
- Other than a debugging macro equivalent to inserting "cout<<XYZ<<flush;",
- is there a way to see what is happening as the program runs?
-
- Another complication is the fact that the application is graphical, which
- is fine for printing out values etc. (just redirect the output to a file)
- but interactive debugging may pose more of a problem.
- Any tips?
-
- Thanks,
- Tim.
