Re: Debugging multiple apps

One way I've dealt with stuff like this in the past is to put a simple
loop like this as the first thing in your WinMain:

    bool wait = true;
    while (wait);

Once the process is launched, just attach to it with the debugger and
break.  Set wait to false and start stepping.
