+++ DBWIN2 +++
Disclaimer - This application was based on the DBWIN sample source code
which was shipped with MSC 7.0 and VC++. It is not my work nor do I
claim it to be. I simply modified the original in order to try to improve
upon it. (READ - Don't sue me)
The Zipfile should contain this file (README.TXT) as well as two
additional files:
1 - WinDB.exe (the new executable)
2 - WinDBDLL.dll (the new dll)
The program is basically everything that the original DBWin program
was with the following changes (hopefully improvements):
Size reduction - The executable is now 10,640 bytes instead of 16,384
bytes. The DLL shrank a little bit as well to 16,432 bytes from 17,408
bytes.
The 'Always On Top' feature has been moved to the system menu where
it belongs. It can now be changed while the program is an icon.
The Rightmost menu item ' (C) ' is not a Copyright symbol but a symbol
to 'Clear' the menu window. It's just there for convenience.
The original DBWin used to BEEP like crazy if it's buffer was full. This
typically happened when something went wrong on you. This usually
leads to a 'Beeping' computer which seems to be locked up. This is now
fixed and DBWin won't beep when it's internal buffer is full.
I removed the 'DEBUG KERNEL' settings. This was mainly to save on
program size since I rarely use the debug kernel in day to day
development. The same goes for outputting to a serial port. This is gone
as well. If you need these features occasionally then use the original
program.
New feature - 'Beep after a minute' item on the 'Output' menu. This will
cause WinDB to beep if anything is displayed after it has been idle for
a minute. I use this because I typically run WinDB as an icon. If any
errors are logged then it will BEEP to alert me. This way I don't have
to check for errors.
New feature - 'Auto Find' item on the 'Output' menu. A dialog box will
ask you for a Window to Auto-Find. Enter the name of the Window
(Window Title) and WinDB will automatically pop-up when the application
is run. Leaving this blank disables this feature. I use this to
automatically display WinDB every time I run the application I am
currently developing.
That's about it. I hope this is useful and if so let me know. If it isn't
then let me know too.
