DEBUG
Instructs MPE/iX to enter the system debugger. (Native Mode)
Syntax
DEBUG [commands]
Parameters
commands A series of system debugger commands to be executed
before the debugger prompt is displayed. The
string may be as many as 255 characters long.
There are no delimiters or keywords needed to pass
these commands to the debugger. If the CONTINUE
command is not part of the commands string, you are
left in debug after the execution of those
commands.
Operation Notes
The DEBUG command enters the system debugger. An optional parameter,
commands, defines a string of system debugger commands that are executed
when the debugger is invoked, but before the debugger prompt is
displayed.
If the string contains commands that return the user to the command
interpreter, those commands are executed. Any remaining commands are
pushed onto a command stack. Another invocation of the DEBUG command
executes the commands saved on the stack. If you invoke DEBUG X;Y;Z and
the command X returns control to the CI, then DEBUG A;B;C executes the
commands A;B;C;Y;Z.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, program, or in BREAK. It may
not be issued from a job. Pressing Break has no effect on this command.
Privileged mode (PM) capability is required to use this command.
Example
To produce a stack trace and return to the command interpreter:
