[comp.windows.ms.programmer] Can CVW debug a DOS app in a window?

alanr@tekig5.PEN.TEK.COM (Alan N Rovner) (04/13/91)

I have been successfully testing a DOS application in DOS using normal
CodeView.  Having recently installed Windows, I am now successfully running
the DOS app in its own window.  The question is: Is it possible at all to
run CodeView (regular or CVW) on this app running in a DOS window?

Just for the heck of it, I brought up a plain DOS window and started CodeView
like I would from DOS.  It started normally, ran for a few seconds and gave
me an 'Out of Memory' message.  I don't have CVW here or I would have tried
it before posting the message.

My system is a Compaq 386-20e with 5 meg RAM.

On a related note, can one buy CVW without buying the SDK?

Thanks in advance,
