Solaris Common Desktop Environment: User's Guide

To Debug a Process

Application developers and system administrators sometimes use a debugging application such as Sun Workshop to investigate an errant process. The Debug item on the Process menu invokes your preferred debugger on the selected process.

    Debug the process using your preferred debugger.


Tip –

The equivalent UNIX command is:

workshop -d command

where workshop is the name of the debugger program and command is the command needed to pass the process ID to the debugger.
