The AT&T Advanced Software Products group is announcing an X11 based graphical user interface for the dbx and sdb debuggers. The eXamine Graphical Interface communicates with the underlying debugger and provides a sophisticated window interface for the user. Features allow users to: - View source code within a window. - Graphically represent breakpoints, current stop point and call frames within the source code. - Create trace windows which display the results of debugger scripts whenever a breakpoint is encountered. - Edit and recompile source files without leaving the debugger. - Create and use command buttons to add new actions. - Access a breakpoint list for finding or deleting breakpoints. - Access any UNIX system command from the interface. - Toggle between two interface configurations. - Customize the interface including all of the pull down menus, command buttons, and physical display information. - Add note windows for capturing screen information. The eXamine Graphical Interface currently supports dbx and extended dbx for C++ on Sun 3 and Sun 4 platforms; it also supports sdb and sdb++ for the 386 and AT&T 3B2 platforms. The eXamine Graphical Interface will run with the X11 Window System Release 3 or 4 (including OpenWindows), and will operate with any ICCCM-compliant window manager. The eXamine Graphical Interface is priced at $795/copy. An introductory price of $695/copy is available until April 1, 1991. Discounts are available for multiple copies. For more information about the eXamine Graphical Interface, or for a free demonstration copy, call 1-508-960-1997, or send electronic mail to examine@mvuxi.att.com.
