CVXHANG(1)                                                          CVXHANG(1)



NAME
     cvxhang - create a process in a hung state and inform requestor's window

SYNOPSIS
     cvxhang [-signal hostname window] [-nonX pid] [-name target_name] target
     [args]

DESCRIPTION
     cvxhang is used by the WorkShop Debugger and Performance tools to
     instantiate the target process with its optional args and leave it
     waiting just before executing its first instruction.  A debugger, or any
     other tool, may then attach to the process and take control of its
     execution.

     If the -signal argument is given, once the process is created, cvxhang
     informs the window of the WorkShop Debugger requesting the creation, as
     given by the optional hostname and window on the command line, of the
     target process' PID.

     If the optional -nonX argument is given, the process whose pid is
     supplied will be sent SIGUSR1, and can determine that the target is ready
     to be attached.

     If the optional -name argument is given, argv[0] for the target process
     will be set to target_name.
