I’m trying to get debugging working for a Windows CE 5.0 application but I cannot even start the debugging process because Visual Studio throws up the error “No process is on the other end of the pipe”. I can run a “Hello World” application OK but when I try to run my app which is linked against another DLL I get that error. The DLL is present in the same folder as the executable. How can I get any more information about this out of CE?
It sounds like the program might be failing because the .dll can’t be loaded.
SUGGESTIONS:
1) make sure you’re specifying “/MTd” (Multi-Threaded Debug) in your build.
2) Modify your code to do an explicit “LoadLibrary()” instead of implicit linking. Check for any errors trying to load. initialize or invoke methods on the .dll.
You might also be able to accomplish the same with a try/catch (C++) or MS Structured Exception Handling (SEH, C or C++): I’m not sure.
‘Hope that helps .. PSM
PS:
Windows CE 5.0 is pretty old: are you sure you can’t use a newer version of Windows Mobile? It would have both a friendlier UI, as well as a more robust development environment. IMHO…
