The User interface of Visual Express has a debugger. I just do this: - open visual studio - select the visual studio project that was generated by cmake - switch to Debug - build the INSTALL configuration.
in debug ->Exceptions: check that all exceptions are enabled. otherwise the debugger would just stop blender when it crashes but not step to the source code to show you where the crash happened. in the "solution explorer" (window on left side): right click on "blender", from the popup menu select "setup as start project" - Debug -> Start Debugging On 08.06.2013 13:00, JF Gallant wrote: > I have downloaded MSVC 2008 Express ( Microsoft visual C++ 2008 Express) > during the night and now it's installed.
