I’ve got a project that I need to get working with 3 compilers (Borland, gnu, and Microsoft). It works on 2/3 and now I just need to get it working with Microsofts. It seems to crash in places where it works fine with the other compilers, so I’m wondering if there is a way to debug with the command line, maybe to get a stack trace or get the line which caused the crash, something similar to gdb with gnu.

    If you’re using the Microsoft C++ compiler, do you have Visual Studio installed already? If so, you can use the built-in debugger. If not, I would recommend trying Visual C++ 2010 Express for free. It has an excellent native debugger. You can break on first chance exceptions (C++, SEH, Win32 exceptions) and go right to the line where it happened along with the call stack, locals, etc.
