WinDbg through COM port.

[JY Kim]

Hello.

I am working with XPe and going to make debugging channel.
I have tried to use WinDbg through COM port but WinDbg won't connect.
My coworker and I cannot sure if XPe support debugging through COM
port.
Is this possible or am I doing something wrong.
If this is not possible, Is there no way I can use WinDbg?

Please answer.
Thanks.

have you booted in debug?
i'm using WinDbg also and don't have any problems with connection.
The connection will only be made on boot-up.
It can be a problem that the COM-port can't be initialized at that
moment.
sorry for some obvious things but i don't know what you have done
already.
