debugging a DLL

[David LeBlanc]

This may be a little late coming back to you...

Create a debug version of your dll in Visual Studio.

On the debug tab of the settings dialog, set up the command line to run
python with your file.py that calls your dll. Set working directory etc. as
needed.

Set a breakpoint in your dll.

Start debugging - python will run your file.py: it will load the dll and
eventually it will hit one of your breakpoints if you're lucky.
