Starting Insight for Application Debugging

Before starting Insight, make sure that:

• RDBC is running on the target (for standard application debugging). If RDBC is not running, run it without any argument.

• RDBD is running on the host (for process dump analysis).

The name of the Insight executable differs according to the target platform and takes the form target-type-chorusos-gdb. Thus, depending on the platform, type one of the following to start Insight:

• $ sparc-chorusos-gdb

• $ powerpc-chorusos-gdb

• $ i386-chorusos-gdb

By default, the Insight GUI is started when you start GDB. The main window of the Insight GUI is shown in Figure 2-2.
