  I built my Ada DLL by Gnat 3.13p compiler in WinNT.

  I also have a Visual C++ code (test.exe) calling the Ada DLL  
(my_dll.dll).

  Problem is, I can't debug my DLL while the "test.exe" is running . I read 
the GNAT User's guide, the section : "The program is built with some foreign 
tools and the DLL is built with GCC/GNAT" and according to that I tried the 
followings :

  $ gdb -nw  my_dll.dll

  -- The last line of this command ends with
  -- "This GDD was configured as6 "6-pc-mingw32"...<no debugging symbols 
found>...." and this called my attention.

next, I set breakpoint

$ break my_start --an entry point to a subroutine of the DLL
$ .... <no debugging symbols found>... done

-- I don't remember exactly the result of break command but I remember the 
<no debugging symbols found>... done statement.

so I entered :

$ symbol-file my_dll.dll
$ Reading symbols from my_dll.dll ....< no debugging symbols found>...done

  Is the problem due to symbol-file, symbol table? How can I achieve this 
then?

  How can I debug my Ada DLL? Can anybody help me?
