In applicaiton options, full debug options is selected. But, I never debug. Also,there is no blue dots in the guttering to the left of code editor. How can I debug this application? I try to close ide and open again. This doesn't solve.

The .tds contains all the debug info needed by the IDE and I remember I once had an obscure path setting that caused the .tds and .exe to go to different folders. I'll try to remember the exact settings if this turns out to be the problem, grey cells running a little slow today <g> AlisdairM(TeamB) Back to top Russell Hind Guest Posted: Thu Aug 19, 2004 5:33 pm    Post subject: Re: Debug Problem I see this if I've just opened a file in a different directory to the project directory (where the .bpr is). Use File | Open and select your project .cpp file that resides in the project .bpr directory, and then run again. The blue dots should be back. This is becoming more and more annoying as our projects get split over multiple directories! Cheers Russell OKusmen wrote: Quote: I want to debug an application.

Odd, we don't get these problems and the only file in the same folder as our .bpr is the auto-generated WinMain. Everything else lives in a parallel tree (we separated configuration/project management from source) Maybe it is because we never move that one specfic .cpp file?

Some code is in here, but most is in the other 3 directories. If I use File | Open (or add to project) and select a .cpp from one of the other 3 directories then this happens repeatedly for me (BCB6, XP Pro SP1 & 2). Another though on the matter: My intermediate and final output directory is set to a sub-directory of TPISpectra (the project directory). Maybe this has something to do with it. It usually means it can't find the tds so maybe BCB6 is looking in ..build from the current directory *or* the project directory (so if you final output is the project directory, the default, then that may be different). Now I've started playing with externals in Subversion, I am moving the other 3 directories to be subdirectories of the project and don't see this issue then (AFAICT anyway). trunk Quote: -- Shared -- TPISpectra | |-- build -- TPI1000 -- TPI2000 Alisdair Meredith (TeamB) wrote: Quote: Russell Hind wrote: This is becoming more and more annoying as our projects get split over multiple directories!

OK, there's your problem. No problem setting intermediates, but final output (for .EXE projects) should not be messed with, at least if you want easy debugging <g> AlisdairM(TeamB) Back to top Russell Hind Guest Posted: Fri Aug 20, 2004 4:24 pm    Post subject: Re: Debug Problem Alisdair Meredith (TeamB) wrote: Quote: OK, there's your problem.

I can live with it for the moment! Cheesr Russell Back to top OKusmen Guest Posted: Thu Aug 26, 2004 5:18 am    Post subject: Re: Debug Problem tds and exe file is in same directory.

My directory structure like this: ap25projects ---- AP25.bpg ----AP25APP | ---------tds file ---------exe file ---------Source directory | --------Obj directory -------- all source files, bpr file. I think we hit problems when we separated the .bpr from the tds/exe. You might try moving those into the same folder. In our structure, bpr, bpf/main cpp, tds and .exe all live in the same folder. The main source for each project is in a parallel structure, and obj files/precompiled headers are written somewhere else entirely. But the 4 key files stay together, as it seems to keep the IDE happiest.
