RE: How can I debug my driver at source-level with So- ftICE?

Gary,

I hate to put it this way, but if you really need access to Microsoft
Confidential information, before they decide to release it even to the first
tier development community, maybe you should stick with the Microsoft tools
?

You cannot possibly demand that we provide support for brand new Microsoft
functionality before Microsoft themselves do it ! Nor even simultaneously,
we haven’t got to the crystal ball level as yet, and my name ain’t Gandalf.
If your need is such that only Microsoft products can satisfy it, that’s ok,
but is it fair to throw barbs at us whenever you can, just because we aren’t
Microsoft ? But there are things we can do that they don’t, just like there
are things they do that we don’t - if we couldn’t differentiate somehow,
we’d not sell anything.

Unless we blow it, we’re going to have full XP support this week. I’m not
talking about SoftICE, I’m talking about the whole suite, including full C++
wizard-driven driver development support, an intelligent timing tool, a code
coverage tool, a fully distributed environment over tcp/ip, multiple-master
multiple-target driver development and debugging, and more. Granted, you may
not need any of that, maybe all you need is a debugger that lets you put
together your C code on the latest version of XP in your two-machine
configuration over a serial port. But even then, we will have that too,
soon, the difference is a few weeks, when did XP build 2600 come out ? If
you aren’t willing to wait, fine, but spare us your criticism, because I
don’t quite believe we deserve it.

For the rest of you, bear with me for a little while longer, and you’re
going to see yet another honest product coming out of our ovens.

Alberto.

Oh darn, I hate to mention this, but WinDbg has not problems with
symbologies … at all. :slight_smile:

You need the forthcoming DriverStudio 2.6 release to run on build 2600 of
Windows XP. We should be shipping a beta version this week to a very limited
set of people. General release is slated for later this year.

Hello,

Which version of Windows are you using? There is a problem with the compiler
version of Windows. If we use build utility of Windows build version 2462,
everything will work fine and softice identifies the debug information.
Beyond
2462, this problem arises!

Regards
Venky
