SYNTAX
mxdb [ -c corefile ] [ -p pid ] [-i] [ program [ argument ... ]]
corefile The pathname of a core dump file
pid The process id of a running process
program The pathname of an executable file
argument An argument to program
DESCRIPTION
The mxdb command invokes a symbolic debugger that you can use
with C, F77, and Pascal programs. The mxdb debugger examines
executable files, and core files, and running processes and
provides a controlled environment for their execution.
Mxdb can accept input from a file or pipeline. In such case, the
-i option is sometimes useful if you want to see the session as
it would appear if it were running interactively.
If you execute mxdb with no arguments, a debug command is
available to begin debugging. A help command is also available
that provides help on all mxdb commands and various topics.
Options
-c Debug a core dump.
-i Display prompts even when standard input is not a terminal.
-p Debug a running process.
FILES
a.out
core
