~~10. Making the debugger show~~ the value of PWLib types

It is possible to make the MSVC and VS.net debuggers show the value of PWLib types either in hover text or in watch lists, as show below:

To do this, locate the file AUTOEXP.DAT for your environment as follows:
MSVC 6 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin\autoexp.dat
VS.net 2003 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Packages\Debugger\autoexp.dat

~~For MSVC 6, open the file in a text editor and add the following~~ lines to the end of the file:

It is possible to make the MSVC and VS.net debuggers show the value of PWLib types either in hover text or in watch lists. This is done by adding additional information to the AUTOEXP.DAT file provided as part of the Microsoft development enviromnent

To insert these definitions, first open the existing AUTOEXP.DAT file for your environment

MSVC 6 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin\autoexp.dat
VS.net 2003 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Packages\Debugger\autoexp.dat

Restart MSVC or VS.net, and the values of PWLib variables will now be displayed in the debugger.
11.Using VS.net from the command line

The VS.net compiler can be invoked from the command line without the GUI using the "devenv" program with the /build option. To do this, open a command window using the "Open Visual Studio .NET 2003 Command Prompt" shortcut or open a normal command window and execute the correct "vcvars32.bat" file.

The following command shows how to build the "Console" project in Debug mode using the pwlib.sln solution file:

devenv /build Debug /project "Console" pwlib.sln

The following command will build all of the pwlib projects in Debug mode using the pwlib.sln solution file:

devenv /build Debug pwlib.sln
