CW10.5 for Mac Debugger "access fault exception"

[KrisRutecki]

Hi,
Last week I bought the CW10.5 and would like to debug a Mac classic application. The debugger can't seem to go beyond the
MaxApplZone();
MoreMasters();
In both cases I get the "access fault exception". I am running os 10.4 on a G4 laptop.
Please Help,
P.S. I could not find where to get the 30 day technical support from...

Are those calls to MaxApplZone() and MoreMasters() the first time the app touches the Classic API? If so, do you know if the Classic environment is installed on that G4 laptop? In other words, can you run a Classic app on it?

Yup,
Yes to all questions,
- the calls are made right at the start of the application.
- I can run a classic app on this mac, as a matter af fact I can run the very application I am trying to debug - the problem is that it crashes when I try to use one of it's functions (assemble file)
So I really need to get busy debugging... Is there a special place where I have to tell the debugger that it is working with a 'classic' app??
By the way, I started 'shaking the tree' and there is no tech support for CW10. All I got from Freescale were outdated forum links... which point here...

I'm tracking down info on CW10. I used to work for Metrowerks doing Mac programming, and went off to fool with cell phones (hence my handle). Right now all I can suggest if you're under the gun, can you migrate everything to a Mac OS 9 only machine (maybe reboot into 9?), and try to debug from that.

Yes,
That does the trick. Thankyou.
I finally discovered this os9 IDE which came in the extras folder, and after excruciating 3 hours discovered a way to use the debugger.
Your post certainly put me up on this road again, I don't even remember how many times this thing hunged-up the classic...
Thanks again, Tom.
Best Regards, Kris
