Hi Ronn,

this is IDL 8.1 on a windows 7 64-bit system, although I'm compiling a
32-bit DLM and calling it with 32-bit IDL. I have the debugger spawn a
new process using this command:
C:\Program Files\ITT\IDL\IDL81\bin\bin.x86\idlde.exe
with command arguments of:
-32
The debugger type is set to 'Auto'.

The only difference I can see from the second printing of your
'Calling C from IDL' book is that I have a post-build step that copies
the DLL to my default DLM path instead of putting it in the IDL bin
directory. The DLM loads and runs fine this way, its just that the
debugger doesn't seem to work.
