Introduction Use the debugger to trace problems in a program at the source code level.
A debugger enables you to control a program's execution, symbolically monitoring program control flow, variables, and memory locations. You can also use the debugger to trace the logic and flow of control to acquaint yourself with a program written by someone else. This section introduces some simple dbx commands for use on Sun machines, and shows how to start a debugging session. The pictures and the particular debugger responses in this section are from release 8.2.5a, but the debugger should behave more or less the same under analysis-7. The debugger dbx is available on the Suns, e.g. tersk machines.
