HELPLIB.HLB  —  DEBUG  Qualifiers

1    /CLIENT

    Invokes the DEBUG client Motif interface. From the client, use
    the network binding string displayed by the server at startup
    to establish the connection. The first client to connect to
    the server is the primary client, and controls the number of
    secondary clients allowed to connect to the server.

2    /KEEP

    Invokes the kept debugger. The kept debugger includes a Run/Rerun
    capability that allows you to debug an image multiple times or
    debug a series of distinct images without exiting the debugger.

    Issuing the DEBUG/KEEP command is the only way to invoke the kept
    debugger.

3    /RESUME

       /RESUME (default)

    Reinvokes the non-kept debugger after a Ctrl/Y key sequence has
    interrupted the execution of a program you are debugging. (The
    interrupted program must not have been linked with a /NOTRACEBACK
    qualifier on the LINK command.)

    If you issue the DEBUG/RESUME command without a previous Ctrl/Y
    key sequence, no action occurs.

4    /SERVER

       /SERVER
       [=( [BINDING_INFO=filespec] [,PROTOCOLS=(protocol[,...])]
       )]

    Invokes the DEBUG server. The DEBUG server allows up to 30
    simultaneous connections from clients on the same or remote
    OpenVMS nodes, or from PC nodes running a supported Microsoft[R]
    Windows[R] platform.

    (Optional) If specified, the BINDING_INFO keyword specifies that
    the server binding identification strings are to be written to
    filespec. If not specified, no file is created.

    (Optional) If specified, the PROTOCOLS keyword specifies which
    network protocols should be enabled for connection to the
    DEBUG server. Only the specified protocols are enabled. If not
    specified, all protocols are enabled. The protocol argument can
    be one or more of the following keywords:

       ALL
       [NO]DECNET
       [NO]TCP_IP
       [NO]UDP

    The first client to connect to the server is the primary client.
    A client that connects to the server after the primary client
    establishes the connection is a secondary client. The primary
    client controls the number of secondary clients allowed to
    connect to the server.

    The server displays a series of RPC binding strings that identify
    the port numbers through which the client can connect to the
    server. The port number appears in square brackets ([]) at the
    end of the identification strings.

    When connecting from the client, the simplest port identification
    string consists of the node name of the server followed by the
    port number in square brackets. The following are all valid
    binding identification strings:

       NODNAM[1234]
       NCACN_IP_TCP:16.32.16.25[1112]
       16.32.16.25[1112]
       NCACN_DNET_NSP:63.1004[RPC20A020DD0001]

                                   NOTE

       You must hold the DBG$ENABLE_SERVER identifier in the rights
       database to be able to run the debug server. Exercise care
       when using the debug server. Once a debug server is running,
       anyone on the network has the ability to connect to the
       debug server.

    Before granting the DBG$ENABLE_SERVER identifier, the system
    manager must create it by entering the command DEBUG/SERVER
    from an account with write access to the rights database. The
    system manager needs to do this only once. The system manager
    can then run the Authorize utility to grant the DBG$ENABLE_SERVER
    identifier to the user's account in the rights database.
