Which debugging function works successfully on Vista 64 bit - so that I can get the output in DebugView v4.64?
I'm using OutputDebugString() that seems to have no effect in Vista x64.
I understand that OutputDebugString() works only with Win32, but whats its replacement in Vista x64?
In immediate need. :(
OK. GOT IT.!!
This is the SOLUTION:
In DebugView 4.64, make sure that Capture Global Win32 is enabled. To do this, in the DebugView 4.64 main menu go to Capture and see if the Capture Global Win32 item is checked. If not, check it.
Upon doing this, you'll notice that OutputDebugString() output appears in DebugView 4.64 on Vista x64.
