Debugging libVLC

[SteveO]

OK - I finally got VLC 1.2 to build using msys! I am able to import in vlc.exe and libvlccore.dll into Eclipse in windows and debug. Only remaining issue (knock on wood) is that when I load up libVlc.dll I cannot access its internals. See pictures below.... First shows LibVLCCore.dll which I can see components of to allow me to debug, and the second picture shows when I try to bring up the internals of libvlc.dll which fails...






So close!

No idea. You didn't strip it?

Hi Mr. Kempf,

Thank you for looking at my posts... making progress! Below is a .jpg showing the sizes of the vlc exe and dlls in both the debug and non-debug builds - the debug files are all quite a bit larger than their counter parts.



Soooooooooooo, at this point I am assuming the builds are correct but for some reason Eclipse has trouble interpretting the one file but not the others, which is a bit odd (image of debug error below).



I will try to play with debug settings for that one file... This very well may be an issue I need to take up wt Eclipse forums if I cant figure it out on my own, but If you are aware of something I could try such as a build option, please let me know!

Thanks much on all fronts - exciting project.

Steve

Never used eclipse, so I don't know. I use QtCreator and gdb
