HOWTO: Debugging a COM Server Written with Visual J++

ID: Q180712

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Visual J++, versions 1.0, 1.1

SUMMARY

This article explains how to debug a Java COM object that is referenced by a client that is written in another language such as C++ or Visual Basic 5.0.

MORE INFORMATION

Developer Studio 97 and Visual J++ 1.1 provide a standard mechanism for debugging. The two defaults are through an HTML browser (Internet Explorer 3.x/4.0) and through a stand-alone interpreter (Jview).

To debug Java code referenced by any client, specify the client as the "standalone interpreter" in the Project Settings dialog box, Debug tab, Category "Stand-alone interpreter." Under the "General" category, set the Debug/Execute radio button to "Stand-alone interpreter." Then debug as usual.
