Hey,
I''ve made a little assert macro/function that works pretty well. It works like this.
Assert(expression);
If expression==false, it pops up a messagebox saying "Assert failed! File: filename, Line: linenumber". All is good there. But it asks if you want to break or continue. I tried using advice from a book like so.
#define Break() { _asm { int 3 } }
They say it will break. Mind you all of this stuff is enabled only in a debug compile. I am using codewarrior, and was wondering how to break in it. The code above is said to work, but it may only be for msvcpp. It crashes in mine. Anyone have any ideas?

Shockingly, this is not the answer I seek. MSVCPP is the DEVIL! Heh, really. Codewarrior has by far superior optimizations, and I like the interface more.

It''ll crash with a debug break exception. That''s what you want it to do. It won''t just automatically go to the line where the int 3 happened.
"int 3" isn''t an MSVC++ thing, it''s the standard "debug break" interrupt.
Another way to get the same effect is to use the DebugBreak() API function, which compiles down to the same thing, but in a more compiler-independant way (i.e. you don''t need to use inline assembly).
