   ORCA/C and Prizm again

   Hi all and Happy Holidays,   
      
   I have desktop program made from a resource file, two header and two source   
   files that I usually compile and link with an exec and linker files from the   
   text shell so that:   
      
   make =   
      
   compile	flagging.rez	keep=flagging   
   compile	flagging.cc	keep=flagging   
   compile 	grid.cc 	keep=grid	      
      
   cmpl 		linkit   
      
   linkit =   
      
   grid   
   flagging   
   keep=flagging   
      
   flagging.cc includes flagging.h and grid.h   
   grid.cc includes grid.h   
       
   I've tried using Prizm to be able to step through some code but I'm having my   
   difficulties.   
      
   I can stop at a breakpoint and examine variables in a program with a single   
   src file, and a header file or two I guess, but I can only get it working to a   
   fashion with the above mentioned setup.   
      
   I’ve tried a few things: using the ‘Set Options” from the compile and   
   link menus but it won't compile and link properly from the debug menu or the   
   run -> compile to disk menu item.   
      
   The best I’ve come up with is using the compile menu, uncheck the link   
   option and compile each file seperately and then use the link menu, uncheck   
   the execute after linking option and the choose trace option in execute   
   options and then the execute menu    
   item. That seems to break at the breakpoint and variables are displayed but   
   doesn’t display an arrow in the source listing and stepping seems a bit   
   flaky. Then if I remove the beakpoint and save the file I need to recompile   
   that file and relink the    
   program again or the breakpoint will linger.   
      
   Any advice on how to go about this with the above setup? I’ve been using   
   printf as it’s less tedious and I’ve only just figured out how to get as   
   far as I have.
