Sequent's "pdbx" (parallel dbx) can be used from within their SVAE (System V Application Environment) as well as the regular BSD environment to debug multiprocess applications. Patrick Wolfe (pat@kai.com, kailand!pat) System Manager, Kuck and Assoc., Inc.

We have a Sequent Balance 21000 here at RPI, and I must say that one of the system's finer points is the "pdbx" debugger. It's _very_ handy for debugging applications that fork, etc. I often wish dbx could handle that too, as I often want to debug multi-process stuff on Suns. If the program is portable enough, sometimes I just send it over to the Sequent to debug, but in many cases, that is just too inconvenient, or impossible (i.e. the program uses Sun graphics, etc). ---- Dave Hiebeler Internet: hiebeler@cs.rpi.edu (preferred address) R.D.
