Donovan, as well as using remote debugging, but a somewhat more ugly approach....
 
I use to start up two copies of Delphi, one running the server and the other the client, I made sure I compiled/ran the server app first then fired up the client. Obviously you need to be able to run the server app on your work station, you can set break points as per normal in both apps and yada yada yada.
 
One point with this approach - I did have some trouble if I had SocketServer started automatically as a service - I found the client would always start it's own instance of the server (even with my debug version already running). To get around this I started SocketServer manually, I remember reading somewhere about this problem but can't rememebr the solution now sorry). Anyway - ugly but it worked

Subject: [DUG]: [Q] Debugging MIDAS....

G'Day,

I have a MIDAS client that I am using for testing against a MIDAS server I have written. How can I invoke things so that I can set break points in the MIDAS server so that I can debug it? ie Debug MIDAS server by running the MIDAS client EXE.

TIA

-- Donovan
