DDE(1)                          Domain/OS SysV                          DDE(1)




NAME
     dde - Domain Distributed Debugging Environment

SYNOPSIS
     dde [-do "cmd_list"] [-nwp]
         [ [-on target_machine] [-target_type target_type]
         { [-input pathname] [-output pathname [-ao]]
           [-errors pathname [-ae]] program_invocation
         | -attach process_id } ]


DESCRIPTION
     The dde command invokes the Domain Distributed Debugging Environment, the
     standard debugger for the Domain/OS operating system at SR10.  For
     complete information about this debugger and its commands, consult the
     Domain Distributed Debugging Environment Reference (011024) or invoke the
     debugger's own help command for online assistance.

OPTIONS
     -do "cmd_list" Execute cmd_list (a list of debugger commands) before
                    executing any startup files or debugging the program.

     -nwp           Do not create target program window.

     -on target_machine
                    Debug the program or process on the specified target
                    machine, where target_machine is a node name or node ID.

     -target_type target_type
                    Specify the type of target machine; target_type must be
                    "m68k" for SR10.

     -input pathname
                    Read target program input from pathname.

     -output pathname [-ao]
                    Direct target program output to pathname.  With -ao,
                    append output to pathname.

     -errors pathname [-ae]
                    Direct target program error output to pathname.  With -ae,
                    append error output to pathname.  To redirect error output
                    and standard output to the same file, use the same
                    pathname on both options or use "&1" as an argument to the
                    -errors option.

     program_invocation
                    Invoke program_invocation (the pathname of an executable
                    image, plus any arguments) for debugging.  This
                    specification must be last on the dde command line.

     -attach process_id
                    Attach to a running process identified by the UNIX pid
                    process_id.  Use the /bin/ps or /com/pst -un commands to
                    get the pid of a process.
