[ddbg] Debuggin DLL with Code::Blocks

[Jascha Wetzel]

the debug info in the executable usually hold the source filenames as 
relative paths just like they were used during compilation.
in order for the debugger to find the files, it needs to reconstruct the 
absolute paths using the search paths that are set with the directory 
command (or 'sp' when in ddbg command line mode).

so my guess is that you are missing a directory for the search path. you 
can find out what the source files are called in the debug info by using 
ddbg from the command line. the following commands should do that for 
your project:

cd C:\SoftAutomationD\0_Workspace\saWorkspace\
ddbg ..\..\_bin\saWorkspace.exe
lsm

if that lists too much, you can try
lsm Variant
instead.

you might get something like
saCollections/Variant.d
in which case you'd need to add
C:/SoftAutomationD/0_Base/
to the search paths.

The DLL's are loaded and the path to the sourcecode is added to the debugger but it DDBG complains that it cannot find the source file. Has anyone successfully debugged a DLL with CodeBlocks? Is there some additional setup I need to do in order to get this to work? Any help is much appreciated. Log is below.
