I have a C# project for Windows Mobile (.NET code) that calls a DLL written
in C++ that is a naitive Win32 application. When Idebug this, either on my
physical hardware or in the emulator, I cannot get into my DLL as the
debugger refuses to load the sumbols. THe C# code is all fine, but not my
Win32 code. I've tried doing some things I found on the web about telling the
debugger where to find the .pdb files, but no luck, yet.

Are there some specific, new instructions for WIndows Mobile (if that's
different in some way than "standard" environments) and/or VS 2008 (which I'm
running)? I've yet to find anything for VS2008 so maybe things have changed
since VS2005 in this regard.

Thanks!

Replying in hopes someone sees this, again. Is there some documentation on
how to get debugging symbols loaded when doing remote debugging with C# .NET
and C++, naitive code? All I can debug is my C# .NET code; the C++ naitive
DLLs have no symbols loaded and nothing I try gets them available.
