ToolKit debug with Windows SDK cdb.exe debugger by dropping breakpoint __debugbreak() in trouble.
How to allow debugger, like cdb.exe from Windows SDK, to work?
Debug a ToolKit visit action function and trying to drop a breakpoint, which in Visual C is __debugbreak() , for Windows SDK debugger CDB.EXE to get the control :
ProError UserDimensionVisitAction(ProDimension* dimension, ProError filter_status, ProAppData app_data){
ProError status;
if (g_debug) __debugbreak(); // <------- drop an int3 breakpoint in Microsoft way
status = ProArrayObjectAdd(
(ProArray*) app_data,
PRO_VALUE_UNUSED,
1,
dimension
);
fprintf(g_pLog, "ProArrayObjectAdd(): %d \n", status); fflush(g_pLog);
if (status != PRO_TK_NO_ERROR) return PRO_TK_GENERAL_ERROR;
else return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR; // or the caller will stop running
}
But the breakpoint goes to Creo's fatal error handler first like this:
traceback.log

Exception EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT has occurred in the thread 20208. <---- my breakpoint!!
Main Thread 20208
===================== VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV my program, 86 is the line __debugbreak() called
0x00007FFD145618D0 DrwEx22 (drwex22.c:86) (dim_exercise:0x00007FFD14560000) ( 0x0, 0x3fc9a6e0, 0x3fc9a6b0, 0x1e155520 )

.... snip ......
so how to avoid the fatal error which is actually a breakpoint for debugging ?
