Appendix A. Debugging Techniques

The integrated debugging environment provided by Visual C++ is very powerful. You can use the debugger to start and debug an application by simply stepping through each instruction. During a debug session, you can inspect your variables, memory, registers, call stack, etc. With the new Edit and Continue feature provided by Visual C++ 6.0, you can even change the code on-the-fly while debugging. The Visual C++ debugger is great for debugging local applications, but debugging distributed components requires a little more work.

This appendix shows three simple, but very powerful, techniques for debugging distributed components. The first two are a poor-man’s techniques for detecting what went wrong. The third technique is an easy way to break into an executing component on the server side.
