[digiKam-users] digiKam with DrMinGW

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,
Some fresh news. I know where is the problem with DrMinGW. This one is not
loaded at run time because few DLLs require extra debug tools from
Microsoft.

No i setup the install of DrMinGw with the strict minimum required to catch
the backtrace in a text file. The complete DrMinGw is able to open a dialog
with this trace. It use the Windows debug tool for that.
Under Windows, with DebugView tool, Look the 3 first lines generated by
digiKam at startup :

A crash will be generated in your home directory...
