Which files belong into the debug directory ?
-
We are using VC6 and we use some common libraries on a shared path (both static libraries and Dlls with static linkage). Normally i'd just leave the *.lib and *.dll file in the debug directory. I was able to build everything with that, but when I wanted to debug into the library, I had to rebuild the library. Obviously some files were missing. Can anybody tell all the files which belong in the debug directory ? Are there any files in the release directory, which should be in there ? (except *.lib and / or *.dll) (End of short question) Some of my thoughts: I think I should leave all the *.pdb files in there. But do I need the *.exp files ? What about the *.obj, *.sbr, *.res, *.pch files ? Do I need them to debug ? Any help is appreciated ! Bernhard

Others you mentioned are intermediate files used during compile or link. People that start writing code immediately are programmers (or hackers), people that ask questions first are Software Engineers - Graham Shanks
