Debugging a Program With dbx

Listing Modules

The dbx modules command and its options help you to keep track of program modules during the course of a debugging session. Use the module command to read in debugging information for one or all modules. Normally, dbx automatically and "lazily" reads in debugging information for modules as needed.

To read in debugging information for a module name:


(dbx) module [-f] [-q] name

To read in debugging information for all modules:


(dbx) module [-f] [-q] -a

-f

Forces reading of debugging information, even if the file is newer than the executable 

-q

Quiet mode
