It recommends VS2005. The command is "devenv /debugexe thunderbird.exe" as is explained in Mozilla site. And this is not the issue. I have experience while debugging source code (MS solutions and project files). Not executables with debug info (call code + assembly). Is this the way you (MozDevs) debug Mozilla code in Windows? Or do you use MinGW GDB? Any IDE, or just code and makefiles? Do you debug assembly code? These answers will be usefull for me.
