How to debug libraries

Hello,  I've come up with this work around for debugging libraries.
1) Debug in library sources are not supported yet

What I've done is have:
class myclass
{
};
myclass::myclass() {}
void myclass::procedure(){}
void setup(){}
void loop(){}
Then once you have it working you can move to respective .h and .cpp files.

Hi Richard

I have split your post because it does not relate to requesting a reset of your license key. Thanks for keeping posts clear and it is okay to create new threads for new topics.

I don't understand your post

Visual Micro will debug .h and .cpp files when they are a part of the main sketch (in the sketch folder)

Thanks

I had asked about this feature a few months ago but only recently was given the response by a admin here: 1) Debug in library sources are not supported yet.
I guess it might had been a feature recently added.  Sorry if caused any confusion.   I'll give it a try within the sketch's folder as well.

Yes, Putting the .h and .cpp right in the sketch folder I was able to use visualmicro's debug features.

Thanks, that's a good idea thanks. 

It was a bit confusing to see the setup() and loop() methods in the cpp but there is no reason why a library or cpp file would not have them.
