I'm trying to debug an XCMD of mine and have become convinced that I need better debugging tools. I'm writing this XCMD in THINK C and there is a source-level debugger that comes with that program but it requires more memory than I have and, anyway, I believe that it can only be invoked from within the Think C project so it would be useless for an XCMD call from HyperCard. What debuggers are people out there using for their XCMD's? What do people recommend? I've heard of TMON and HyperTMON but have never used either. As this is a subject that might generate a lot of responses and as the results might be of general interest, please e-mail me your responses and I will summarize to the net. Charles Moore

I have yet to receive a single response! Doesn't anybody out there have a recommendation for an XCMD debugger? Or am I the only person left in the world who still writes buggy code? Charles

CM> Charles XCMDs are code resources, so I believe that debugging the source is out of the question, at least for any of the Think environments. You will have to resort to MacsBug or TMON.

We have made it possible in HyperCard 2.0 to use SADE to debug your XCMDs written in MPW Pascal and C. I hope Think will follow suit and allow their debuggers to debug XCMDs written with their Pascal and C compilers. Steve Maller HyperCard Engineering Team Apple Computer
