Debugging RTSS Applications in Visual Studio

RTX applications can be debugged using the familiar Microsoft Visual Studio development environment. This MiniTutorial will show how to debug:

A simple application
An application using a RTDLL
An application using a RTSS DLL

Running an RTSS Application in the Debugger

When Real-time Subsystem (RTSS) applications are debugged in the Visual Studio development environment, RTX ensures that the RTSS project will be under RTX control. RTSS applications are started by the RTX loader instead of the Windows loader.

Sample Programs

Program source code that will be used in the debug examples will come from existing applications found in the RTX samples directory. The default location for the RTX samples is:

%RTXSDKDir%\samples

Real-Time Subsystem

Before running or debugging any of the programs, ensure that the real-time subsystem is up by checking the RTX Control Panel.
