Question:

When I step into my DLL, I can see and step through the source code
correctly. I also can look at local variables. However, I cannot set
breakpoints in the DLL. Also, when I try to look at the disassembled
code I see the following:

   ??? No Code ???

I am using the correct Compile and Link options. Why is CodeView
acting strangely?

Response:

In the .DEF file for the DLL, you had the EXECUTEONLY attribute as
opposed to the default EXECUTEREAD. When you choose EXECUTEONLY,
CodeView cannot read the code segment as it must to work correctly.
Removing the EXECUTEONLY attribute corrects the problem.
