Hi all,

I read that debugging with MS Visual Studio works well. Is there
somewhere a
guide for dummies how to do it?


The following steps should give you a start:
- Have your AOO build installed on the system.
- Build the module of interest with debug information
- Copy the resulting DLLs and PDB files of the module into the
corresponding directory of the installation.
-- for "gbuild" modules like sw you find the DLLs and PDB files in
/main/solver/350/wntmsci12/workdir/LinkTarget/Library/
-- for "dmake" modules like sd you find the DLLs and PDB files in
/main/[module]/wntmsci12/bin/

I do it a little differently from here on because I am a lazy person who
wants to press just one key to start debugging:

- Start Visual Studio
   The Express version is just fine.  I have been using it for most of
my debugging for years.

- File->New Project

- In the new dialog:
   - In left list "Installed Templates" choose Visual C++->General
   - In center list choose "Empty Project"
   - In field near the bottom "Location" enter a path where the solution
files will be stored.
   - In the field above that, "Name", enter the name of the new project,
eg "aoo35"
   - Click OK to close dialog

- Now the main window shows a new view.
- In the "Solution Explorer" on the left side you will now see an entry
in bold typeface named "aoo35".
- I usually delete the entries below it "Header Files", "Resource
Files", "Source Files".  These are used only when Visual Studio is used
for editing. But that is just for my convenience
- Right click on the "aoo35" entry.
- Click "Properties"

- In the "aoo35 Property Pages" dialog:
   - Select "Configuration Properties->Debugging" in the left box.
   - In the center box change values for "Command" to
     "<office-installation-path>/OpenOffice.org 3/program/soffice.bin"
     The .bin is important, do not use .exe
   - Set value for "Environment" to
     "PATH=<office-installation-path>/OpenOffice.org 3/URE/bin"
   - [optional] Set value of "Command Arguments" to <filename> to load a
file when AOO starts or to eg "-impress" to start AOO with the Impress
application.
   - Click OK to close dialog


Now you are all set
Just press "F5" to start Apache OpenOffice.

I have followed your guide. I find all items you have mentioned :)
I now get some informations from MSVC. I have copied them to the issue https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121139
Any tips what I can do in addition to get useful informations?

Kind regards
Regina
