Hi,

I am using finalbuilder 4.0 for the first time.&nbsp; I have few questions about finalbuilder.&nbsp;

when i am running a finalbuilder, there is an option for compile +stage +install.

I know what does it mean by compile and install. but what does it mean by Stage?

Second question.

I was not able to run private build with finalbuilder v5 and v6 though the installation is success.&nbsp;&nbsp; Why so?&nbsp; I found correspoding action defs for finalbuilder v4 but not for v5 and v6.&nbsp; why actions defs are missing for v5 and v6.&nbsp;

third question

i was able to keep breakpoints in the code? but unlike in VC++6.0 debugging i felt is different in finalbuilder. Can anyone show me a link for debugging in finalbuilver v4.

&nbsp;

Thanks,

---

First Question - I’m not sure what you mean here. Which action or option lists “stage”.   
  
 Second Quesion - the action defs for FB6 are (or should be) installed in the FinalBuilder\ActionDefs directory. Which actions are you missing?   
  
 Third Question - There are some topics in the help file that talk about debugging - this should get you started:
