c++.idde - Debug doesn't work in tutorial
I am learning DM from the online tutorial at http://www.digitalmars.com/ugr/chapter10.html and have reached "Running in Debug Mode". (I purchased the IDDE.) However, when I hit 'Start/Restart Debugging' I get a message on the output window that says, "Warning: This debugger can only debug Win32 applications." and though the DigitalMars header says "(Debug)", I'm clearly not in a normal debug mode, i.e., there are no icon indicators in the project window. The tutorial program, tmldos.exe runs ok. Do I need to install something else? Is the tutorial project not a Win32 app? If not, is there a tutorial that is? I'm on a WinXP Pro machine and am running DM under a user account, if that helps. -- - kremlap (email replies can prefix the above to the comcast.net domain)

"Walter" <walter digitalmars.com> The debugger in the Win32 IDDE only works with Win32 apps. Chapter 10 develops a DOS app. To debug it, you need to run the Win16 IDDE which, unfortuately, requires running under Windows 3.1.
