Can't debug in VS Express Edition Topic is solved

[Bundy]

I set everything like was in some topic on this forum and I still have info when i run application:

Debugging application for "myprogram.exe" cannot be found or does not match. Binary was not built with debug information.

Do you want continue debugging? YES | NO

When I click YES on breakpoint a have info:

The brakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document.

Any idea?

This is instruction how to use VS Express Edition witch I found on this forum:

------DEBUG------
- Noteworthy settings (different from default .NET 2005 project)
Configuration Properties:
General:
- Character Set: Not Set (Unless you need Unicode support. My app doesn't need Unicode, so this setting let's me avoid prefixing my strings w/ Unicode macros).
C/C++:
General:
- Additional Include Directories: $(WXWIN)\include;$(WXWIN)\contrib\include;$(WXWIN)\lib\vc_lib\mswd
Preprocessor:
- Preprocessor Definitions: WIN32;_DEBUG;__WXMSW__;__WXDEBUG__;_WINDOWS;NOPCH;_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE (This last one eliminates many warning messages)
Code Generation:
- Runtime Library: Multi-Threaded Debug (/MTd)
Linker:
General:
- Additional Library Directories: "$(WXWIN)\lib";"$(WXWIN)contrib\lib";"$(WXWIN)\lib\vc_lib"
Input:
- Additional Dependencies: wxmsw26d_core.lib wxbase26d.lib wxtiffd.lib wxjpegd.lib wxpngd.lib wxzlibd.lib wxregexd.lib wxexpatd.lib winmm.lib comctl32.lib rpcrt4.lib wsock32.lib oleacc.lib odbc32.lib
Manifest File:
- Generate Manifest: Yes
Manifest Tool:
Input and Output:

[cpp]

make shure that in the project properties, the following is set:

Linker->Debugging:
Generate Debug Info Yes(/DEBUG)
Generare Program Database File $(OutDir)/myapp.pdb

replace "myapp.pdb" for <yourapp>.pdb

HTH

nothing change

[Bundy]

Ok, I find it. Option "Debug Information Format" in c/c++->General must be set to "Program Database for Edit & Continue (/ZI)". Maybe I turn it off when I start fun with VS Express Edition, I don't remamber. Anyway thank for Your time

Can you run one of the samples in debug mode (and debug it like you are trying to do with your app)?

If yes, there must be another difference in the projects.

Are you sure you are running the debug version of the app? You may launch the "Release" target.

Unfortunately, the settings mentioned above do not work for me. Even with the changes, I still get exactly the same error.

I setup my test project with the steps described by Jorg in the sticky.
I'll have to try the samples and see if debuggin works there or not.

Thanks!
