Feedback required on VS2005 device debugger (managed and N..

Hi,

I am part of device developer team at Microsoft. We own device developer
experience of VS.

Its been not too long VS2005 is out and we are happy with the kind of
response we got from customers.

How ever I was also anxious about the response on our device debugger(native
& managed) as well in VS2005.

It appears to me that not many queries were fired on this front.

In about 400+ features that VS2005 was shipped with , there are quite a few
features that device debugger has taken it with VS2005 release.



How ever, in any case if you want to give any kind of direct feedback or if
you feel like we have missed some thing, which is of most importance to you
do write back to me to my mail id



I would also be happy to listen to any kind of device side native (C++,VC++)
developer experience feedback , new features etc , native IDE , eVC to
VS2005 project migration experience from you guys

In my case, I had this problem when trying to link in an MFC extension
DLL, so my app couldn't link MFC statically. When you link MFC
dynamically you have to have the MFC runtimes _already_on_the_device_.
I don't know why VS2005 doesn't put them there for you.
So I copied the MFC, ATL, etc.. runtime DLLs to \windows and everything
worked great again.
