Hi there,
I have an annoying problem with the debug mode of Visual C++ 2005. My scientific program uses FFTW3 library which is a FFT transformation calculation library. Sadly, there is no official VC++ pre-compiled version of FFTW3 library. More sadly, compiling FFTW3 from source code with VC++ 2005 is very hard. The FFTW3 official website provides a pre-compiled DLL package which is built with MinGW GCC and is in release mode.
I can link my program with these MinGW version DLLs in Visual C++ 2005 in debug & release mode. But my program exits immediately after start running, so I want to debug my program step by step. The problem happened if I pressed "Debug" button in Visual C++:
'minifun.exe': Loaded 'D:\cygwin\home\minifan\debug\libfftw3f-3.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.
My question is do I have to provide a debug version FFTW3 to VC++ so that I can start the debug mode? Are there any ways that I can avoid it?
The trouble is I cannot get a debug version and VC++ compiled FFTW3 library easily.
Sorry for this long description. I appreciate any inputs from you guys. Thanks a lot!
