This section describes how to debug the basic project types created by the Visual C++ project templates.

Note that those project types that create DLLs as their output have been grouped into Debugging DLL Projects because of the common features they share.

Two Visual C++ project types (ATL Server Web Service and ATL Server Projects) are included in Debugging Preparation: Web Applications because the debugging techniques used with them have more in common with Web Applications.
