[Nariman Habili]

Thanks for your reply. I've followed your instructions and I get the 
following outputs:

$gdb python

>>import my_module

Hit "Ctrl-C"

Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.

(gdb) b my_module.cc:200

No symbol table is loaded.  Use the "file" command.

I'm using windows xp. I'm wondering, does my_module.cc have to be in the 
same directory as my_module.obj and my_module.pyd? I'm compiling my c++ 
extension with the "debug" flag set.
