Hi I am using C++ Builder6. I am writing code in straight C++.
I am not writing windows code. I need to know how to invoke the de{*word*81} so i can step through the code. Console app. Please shed some light. Thanks Tom Holly
 

Assuming that you are working in the IDE.
Do FIle|New|Other and double click on Console Wizard to create the project.
Make sure that VCL and GUI are not checked. Use Project|Options to select
Debug mode.
To debug, press F8 to step, F7 to step but it will also step into functions.
Assuming that you are working from the command line make sure that -v is
placed on the command line to the left of any source file names. If you are
calling the linker yourself then also use a -v option on that command line.
Make the directory which contains the source, exe and tds files the default
directory. Start the de{*word*81} with a command like this:
bcb -ns -dfilename.exe
Now debug as you would as if the program were created in the IDE. When
done one pass and wanting to another debug run, select Run|Parameters|Load
