Debugging DLLs called via Mathmetica .Net/Link (CVF .. and Intel?)

[Peter_A_1]

I am writing DLL's inCVF 6.6 and calling them via
.Mathematica and Net/Link. I wish to Debug the Fortran

For Excel calling the DLLs, one launches Excel from the debugger. Or one can also attach to already running processes. I have, however, had no success with Mathematica/.Net/Link.

(this is also posted on comp.soft-sys.math.mathematica)

Also, I have an unopened new copy of the Intel F95 compiler. Will this be better?

Not being familiar with how Mathematica calls the DLL, I don't know what is wrong nor could I reasonably suggest that Intel Fortran would be better. I have successfully debugged Intel Fortran DLLs called from VB.NET, but this was all inside the Visual Studio IDE.

I would guess that the problem, whatever it is, is not unique to Fortran and would also apply to calling unmanaged DLLs writtem in other languages. Therefore, your pursuit of this among Mathematica users is likely to be helpful.

Steve, I am using Visual Studio IDE and I am sure you would have cracked it is seconds as it was just 'finger trouble".

(1)just attach to process "InstallableNET.exe" (Wolfram Research/ Mathematica suggested this)

(2)Edit | Breakpoints and key in my routine - the routine appears ready to debug

This successfuly debugs DLLs calledthus:

Mathemica(with.Net/Link) -> .Net (c#?) -> the DLLS

Thanks, Peter

Glad to hear it. I have never myself done this combintion, so I doubt I would not have "cracked it in seconds". I have mixed VB.NET and Visual Fortran in a "solution" and debugging was trivial.
