Building a Debugger Extension

  • Article

To build a debugger extension with the Windows Driver Kit (WDK), you must use the Windows Server 2003 build environment, regardless of what platform you will run the extension on.

Before you build the extension, you must use the DBGSDK_INC_PATH and DBGSDK_LIB_PATH environment variables to specify the paths to the Debugging Tools for Windows SDK headers and libraries, respectively. If %debuggers% represents the root of your Debugging Tools for Windows installation, these variables should be set as follows:

set DBGSDK_INC_PATH=%debuggers%\sdk\inc
set DBGSDK_LIB_PATH=%debuggers%\sdk\lib

Make sure that you always use the latest version of the Debugging Tools for Windows package. For more information, see Debugging Tools for NT-Based Operating Systems. .
