Loading a Debugging Extension (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/5/2010

You can use a third-party debugging extension.

Note

If a debugging extension does not explicitly create a UI, then by default the extension will use the Target Control UI.

To load a debugging extension using the Debugger Extensions menu

1. While the debugger is running, from the Debug menu, choose Load Extension.

2. Navigate to the directory that contains the DLL that corresponds to the extension you want to load.

3. Select the DLL and then choose Open.

To load a debugging extension using .loadext in the Target Control window

1. From the Target menu, select Target Control.

   The Windows CE Command Prompt window opens for Target Control debugging.

2. From the command prompt, enter the following text:

   .loadext <MyExtensionDll>

   Where MyExtensionDll is the name of the debugging extension you want to load.

To load a debugging extension using an extension loading folder

1. Create a directory named extensions, as shown in the following path:

   Program Files/ Windows Embedded CE Platform Builder/6.00/cepd/bin/extensions.

2. Copy the DLLs for all the debugger extensions you want to use to the folder you created in step 1.

   When Windows Embedded CE is started, all extension DLLs in the extensions directory will be loaded automatically.
