How do you debug Delphi DLL's?
Harley Mackenzie
I cannot seem to work out a way of debugging them. If I set a breakpoint on a
line in the DLL source code, how do I run the calling program? I have tried
setting the include TDW (BC45) symbol information option in the calling program
and the DLL but when I try to load the calling program in TDW I get a "wrong
linker version" error.
In Visual C++ you can set up the debugger to start when the DLL is called by any
other program, but I havent worked out how you can do this with Delphi. Can
anyone suggest how to do this? This problem MUST arise with any person
trying to write a non-trivial DLL, so I am hoping someone has the solution.

You need TDW 4.6 (which works with both BC++ and Delphi), which is available in...
* The Delphi RAD Pack.
* The latest version of TASM.
* The free BC++ 4.51 update.

Nice to see you back. I am not able to get the
latest TASM in Aus nor can I get the debugger. Where
can I get the "free" upgrade" for my BC 4.5
kit ? Borland in Aus dont have that either !!

I think the Delphi RAD Pack pricing sucks. I do not want anything
but TDW 4.6. I have multiple copies of all the other stuff. TDW
used to come with the professional development software.
Can I just purchase TDW 4.6 for a reasonable price?
Will it work across C and Delphi?
Can I debug my C DLL's called from Delphi or do I still have to
debug them from a C stub task?
Does TDW 4.6 run properly on Warp 3.0?
Is TDW 4.6 still a subdead DOS task with a peculiar GUI Window at
better or Full Console screen at best?

I'm not sure. Since every distributor does it differently you'll have to
contact Borland, Oz.

I would be interested in seeing any responses you recieve. You could
alternatively (worst case) use a debug window.
