Creating a "Debug file"

v8: click this batch file, cre8_msdebug.bat, if you're creating an MSv8 debug file for Jeff or other MicroStation hacker.

How it works

MicroStation reads many files with myriads of configuration variables.  In order to figure out what the heck is going on (going wrong) the troubleshooter has to know what the variables are and where they were set.

All versions of MicroStation have a command line switch to create a debug file.  In a DOS or Command window, in the program folder, key in "ustation.exe -debug."

The debug file, "msdebug.txt", is created.

The above batch file copies that msdebug to your configuration folder in L:\USTN\MSv8_config_users for easy review.
