    Question Breakpoints in VC7.1

    Hi! I'm facing 2 issues, not sure if they're connected.
    1). I'm running 'c' code on MSVC++ 7.1. It's running in the console mode (/SUBSYSTEM=CONSOLE). For some reason, it's not entering "main" upon start-up. It's entering another function that's part of the project.

    2). I'm not able to set any breakpoints. I get the message ""The breakpoint will not currently be hit. Invalid file line"..what does this mean? The functions in this file are not under any #ifdef and are perfectly valid.

    Please help,
    Thanks,
    Nidhi Mathew

    Make sure you're linking debug info to the executable:
