Hi--
For the next Spoon release I want debuggable VMs and plugins on all
platforms. In 2007 for win32 I created a Microsoft Visual C "solution" for use with the free MSVC Express Edition (2008 or later). The debugger is decent.
I scanned the current CMake-based stuff, but didn't see anything
about MSVC (or win32 gdb for that matter). Is there a current route for debugging the win32 VM using MSVC or gdb (or anything more pleasant than printf)? Or should I update my MSVC stuff and contribute it somewhere? In 2007 I only gave it to Andreas (the win32 VM maintainer) and a few other folks who asked for it.
As far as Cog goes I've been getting by with cygwin's gdb. It's not great but far better than printfs. To make a debug VM go into the cygwinbuild directory and say
$ make debug
The instructions are in cygwinbuild/HowToBuild
thanks!
