Debug logs in win32 3.0.2.
Message 1 in thread
I'm having a problem with an executable I'm trying to run. I'm running under Win2k 3.0.2 with a
debug build using Borland C++ command line tools. It immediately comes up with an error box saying
"TestDataControl.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the
program. An error lo is being created." Unfortunately, I can't find an error log anywhere. Can you tell me where
I'd find it and what it might be named?
Also, the free command line tools don't come with a debugger and I can't use Visual C++ because
my code requires member templates. I noticed that there's a $QTDIR/mkspec/win32-g++ directory. I've got
cygwin installed with g++ 2.95.3-5. Can I build the win32 Qt under this environment (and, if so, how) or is this
only for building the linux source for X support under cygwin?
thanx & later,
Ben Scherrey

I understand Borland do distribute a free debugger:
http://www.borland.com/bcppbuilder/turbodebugger/
Otherwise there's the Intel C++ compiler that can be used in
place of the Visual C++ compiler.
Finally win32-g++ is indeed for building Qt/Windows with cygwin,
not for building Qt/X11 with X11 support on Windows. Unfortunately
I'm not sure it works perfectly. Last time this was discussed here
it appeared cygwin was missing some OLE support. I don't know what
the current status is.
