Using XRAY with the ChorusOS Simulator

Using the XRAY debugging tool with the ChorusOS 4.0.1 Simulator for the Solaris Operating Environment (SPARC Platform Edition) is similar to using XRAY with a physical target configuration. Please refer to the XRAY Debugger for ChorusOS User's Guide, included with the XRAY distribution, for detailed information.

System Debugging

System debugging is not currently possible with the RDBS debug server and the XRAY debugging tool. However, since the simulator is a UNIX process, you can use any Solaris debugging tool to debug the operating system.

Application Debugging

Application debugging involves using a debug server called RDBC to communicate with the XRAY debugging tool. See the "Application Debugging Architecture" section in the ChorusOS 4.0 Introduction for details of how to set up an application debugging session. There are no restrictions for application debugging.
