[gdal-dev] debug ogr2ogr on Windows

[Ivan Lucena]

Hi Martin,

What version of Visual Studio are you using?

It is usually pretty simple to debug GDAL driver on it. Let me give the recipe. I am in OSX right now without access to Windows.

1. Create the file nmake.local with

DEBUG = ON
VCVERS = 1600 (for VS2010)

2. Check you ORACLE_HOME variable

If you don't have you can copy from nmake.opt and change.

But if you already have ORACLE_HOME you don't need to do anything.

Maybe you should add:

OCI_PLUGIN = YES

To have the driver as a plugin. That helps a lot at the change/testing/changing/testing phase. It is much fast to build only the plugin.

3. Run makegdal_gen.bat

That will create the .vcproj file

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/MakeFileProjects

4. Open the project in Visual Studio

Check that the project properties are basic "make" and "debug". That is all you need.

Press F7 will build everything but you don't need to do that if you have done in command line.

5. Prepare a command line on Project/Properties/debug

I can give more info tomorrow. I can't remember how the UI goes but is very simple.

6. Create some breakpoints

Open the main point you want to investigate and add a breakpoint

7. Run in debug mode

That is about it.

If you build the driver as a plugin, you can change one of the project/properties/make/ options to do something like:

cd ogr/ogrsf_frmts/oci
nmake -f makefile.vc clean
nmake -f makefile.vc 
nmake -f makefile.vc plugin
nmake -f makefile.vc plugin-install

That is about it.

Good luck and thanks to help with that

Regards,

Ivan
