subject: Kernel debugger fails to

Denis,

Replying to a message of Denis Tonn to Erwin Hogeweg:

[...]
 DT>  Warp Connect is revision 8.209. The debug kernel for this level 
 DT> erroneously reports itself as 8.200. Make sure you have the correct 
 DT> retail kernel installed for Warp Connect, it should report 8.209 from 
 DT> the BLDLEVEL OS2KRNL command. Do NOT use the ver /r command to check 
 DT> the revision level (this is probably what is wrong),

Yes it was. Thank to Murray Lesser I already figured this out. It indeed
reports itself as 8.209.


 DT>  The debug kernel (and dump formatter and symbol files) for Warp 
 DT> Connect level are on the CDROM shipped with the product. 

Aha, this I didn't know yet. Only, after reading the Debug Kernel Reference
manual, I am no longer sure that I really need/want this. All I want to do
is step through an suspicious API call ( PrfWriteProfileData() ). I guess
that all I have to do is tell my debugger (IPMD) to include the *.SYM
files. I just haven't figured out yet how to do this so if you can give me
hint...


Bye, Erwin Hogeweg
