Does not contain debugging information?

by game4Rest · in Torque Game Engine · 05/18/2005 (7:03 pm) · 5 replies

With VC++ 6.0, when I tried to "Run to Cursor(Ctrl+f10)" in Torque SDK, I saw the message that it "does not contain debugging information." And when I hit "OK" to continue, I was able to see only assembly
codes with which I don't have a friendly relation. Would someone help me to see C/C++ codes?
I think I can study torque line by line when I can see C/C++.
Thanks.
Jean.

Were you running a debug build?

A debug build has lots of extra information in it that lets VC++ show you which line of code you're on. A release build doesn't have that info, thus you just get a dump of assembly. Set it to do a debug build and you'll be in business.

Thanks for you kind reply. But my VC++ shows that its settings are for Win32 Debug and Optimizations are Disabled(Debug) when I select Torque Demo. I'd like to attach the bmp file which shows you my settings, but I can't here.
Unfortunately, I'm not a good user of VC++ and still I can not understand what's wrong with my setting. Can you help me to escape from this darkness?

I found the solution for my problem by chance. I can't figure out what change made it work. Only thing that I can remember is that I chose "f10" to debug instead of "Ctrl + f10". Usually, I start debugging by hit "Ctrl + f10". But that didn't work for Torque. But after
a success by choosing "f10", "Ctrl+f10" works too.
But I'm not sure if it is the solution for my problem.
Thanks.
