Debug Messages in win95

NTDEV
1

Hi,

I’m trying to debug my Ndis driver for win95.
The problem is that DbgPrint and DbgView does not work on Win95.

Can anyone please help me as to how I can get the debuggging messages on the
screen.

Can I setup SoftIce to do this, if so how ??
Any other program/call that can display debugging messages ?

Thanks,
Ramit.

Hello Ramit,

Softice can print debug messages for you and will do so. It is a bit
strange though - it does not print anything unless what you’re
printing is terminated with a new line…

That is
OutputDebugString(“This is a glorious morning\n”);
is displayed,
OutputDebugString(“This is a glorious morning”);
Is not…Atleast untill another string is displayed too.

Regards,
Anders Fogh

Can anyone please help me as to how I can get the debuggging messages on
the
screen.

Add additional \r\n to the end of each trace message.

I tried this also, but DbgView doesn’t seem to capturing any messages in
win95.
I’ve downloded the latest DbgView for win9x and also installed the patch
from the microsoft site for Win95 as reccomended by DbgView Readme.

Also, I cannot compile an NDIS driver with DebugOutputString, it gives an
error, I don’t think the NDIS library supports this function.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,
Ramit.

Use KdPrint instead.

Thanks Max,
I tried that it doesn’t seem to work, infact it’s just #defined to DbgPrint
in Ntddk.h

messages from NDIS.

Ramit.
