Hi Haje,
Yes, it is a little different than before but not too bad.
Under the Debug property (I am using VS 2005) we no longer have the
idlde.exe, those entries are all blank. Instead the process is.
1. Bring up VS.
2. Bring up IDL7.0 just like you would if you were running an IDL
program.
3. Go back to VS and go to Debug->Attach to Process. A window will
popup and choose idl_opserver.exe and either double-click it or select
and press the Attach button.
4. From here on it behaves exactly as before.
There may be some way to make this a little more direct but I haven't
spent much time working on it. But it does seem that VS ought to have
a way to launch the eclipse process and then automatically attach to
the idl_opserver.exe that gets created. If anyone figures that out
let me know and I will do the same.
