Does anybody know of a good graphics based source level debugger that will run under X11r3/4 w/ HP-UX 7.0? I am talking something like "dbxtool" in the SunView environment. Is something like this included in the standard distribution that I am not aware of? The only graphics based debugger I know of is xdbx (source available from uunet). However, xdbx only supports the Berkeley source debugger dbx. Has anybody tried to port xdbx to Sys-V/HP-UX environment?

It runs under X11, looks pretty much like "dbxtool" but can do a lot more in a networked environment. Check out the "Softbench encapsulator" too. Regards, Bert van Barneveld.

This product set was announced in June at several trade conferences. I don't know the price of SoftBench. I will include some text from my replies to other queries and it should help answer some of your questions. Brad Ahlf HP Languages Technical Support bla@hpda.hp.com ...No warranties implied or expressed and all that stuff... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From an answer to a [comp.lang.c++] posting: Yes, I do know a product similiar to ObjectWorks for C++ that runs under industry-standard X11 windows on a UN*X platform. It was announced last month at several trade shows. The name is HP C++/SoftBench for HP-UX. It runs on the Series 300 and Series 800 flavors of workstation from Hewlett-Packard. It was also announced that the SoftBench environment will be licensed to other vendors to promote open systems software engineering tools. In my opinion, it is (will be) superior to anything else in the market. (But, I am biased :-) This environment includes HP's superior HP C++ product which includes an object-oriented debugger for standard 2.0 C++ cfront code, a X11-based C++ browser/developer tool (C++Developer), and all of the standard SoftBench open systems software engineering components such as a build tool, development manager, static analysis tool, debugger, editor, and more. The C++Developer (browser/developer) is also available standalone without the SoftBench CASE environment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From an answer to another [comp.sys.hp] posting asking about HP C++: |For Series 300, the part numbers you need are B1691A and B1693A and the price |is about $1700 before university software discount (not sure, but I think |it is 50% discount for HP C++). You can call your local HP sales office |or the Customer Information phone number (1-800-752-0900) for more info. |You might just call and ask for the 'technical data sheets' for all of |the HP C++ products. Part numbers 5952-1568 (HP C++), 5952-0746 (Domain/C++), |5952-2946 (HP C++Developer -- Browser and Class construction tool), and |5952-2933 (HP C++/SoftBench -- complete C++ development environment).

Is something like this included in > the standard distribution that I am not aware of? The HP CASE product SoftBench contains a Motif Look & Feel based debugger with the standard environment. The default environment also contains an editor, directory browser/version control tool, a program builder, and source code static analysis tool. There is also a C++ and ADA version of SoftBench available. The C++ debugger has been extended to support class breakpoints and other nifty stuff. Check with your local HP sales or field person.
