		Dbx usually prints only ten lines, so you often have to use a range to see the lines you want.
		(dbx) While it is possible to run the program a line at a time, usually you will want to set a breakpoint using dbx.
		In this case, start dbx with the name of the executable file followed by the core file: dbx a.out core You will probably use the where command to find out where the program died, and then inspect variables.

	How to get started using the DBX DEBUGGER
		Dbx can be a very helpful debugger, and it works on C, Fortran, and Pascal code.
		For example: (dbx) stop at BigFunction [2] stop in BigFunction (dbx) print k 7 (dbx) assign j=k+3 The above sequence of commands will stop your program at the entry to the function Big Function(), show you the value of the variable k, and then assign the value 10 (7+3) to the variable j.
		Also, note that some of the major problems with dbx are listed at the very end of the manual page.

	DBX Debugging in C++
		The dbx source code debugger is one of the most powerful tools available for programmers because it helps you locate run time errors in your source code.
		dbx will tell you which routine made the call, the source line number of the call, what parameters were passed to the function, and what value the function returned upon completion.
		When you first start the debugger the current source file is the file that was specified first when you compiled the program.

	SGI TPL View (dbx)
		dbx dbx debugger (default) If you are installing this option for the first time, the subsystems marked "default" are those that are installed if you use the "go" menu item.
		Known Problems and Workarounds 4.1 dbx + dbx cannot correctly display data values of C++ class members that have a C++ class offset (offset in bytes from the beginning of the class) greater than 32767.
		dbx can therefore print an incorrect value given an external name when there are multiple externals with the same name and the resolution rule dbx follows at present does not match the rules rld uses.

		This short paper discusses dbx, a symbolic debugger that is vastly superior to adb.
		The advantage of symbolic debuggers is that they allow you to work with the same names (symbols) as in your source code.
		Expressions in dbx are similar to those in C, except that there is a distinction between / (floating-point divi- sion) and div (integer division), as in Pascal.

		A Short Summary of Common dbx Commands dbx is the name of the debugger that is available for use on Silicon and many other Unix systems.
		To stop at a certain line number: (dbx) stop at linenumber For example: (dbx) stop at 27 To stop on entry to a particular function: (dbx) stop in function_name For example: (dbx) stop in main f) Listing the breakpoints that are set The command (dbx) status will give you a listing of the breakpoints.
		If the next line is a function call, the debugger will go into the function and stop at the first line of that function.

	dbx
		After invoking your program under the watchful eye of dbx, your program will run until the error condition has been detected, but just before execution is terminated.
		You instruct dbx to specify under what circumstances to stop execution of the program and give to you (through dbx) detailed control of the continued execution.
		One feature missing in dbx which was present in the older sdb is the ability to trace stacks, but unless you have that specific need, dbx is the best interactive debugger on the system.

	The dbx debugger
		The dbx debugger is able to track the execution of your program line-by-line in the source code (C or Fortran) and tell you the status of every variable you are computing.
		In order for the debugger to perform this trick, it is necessary to compile your code with a special option, so the compiled code contains information about the symbolic names of your variables and has the appropriate cross references to the source code.
		The debugger is looking first at the file containing the main program and is waiting for instructions.

		V. Exiting the gdb debugger To exit the dbx debugger and return to the UNIX command-line prompt, enter: quit from the (gdb) command line.
		Sets a break-point such that when the "run" dbx statement is entered, the program will begin executing at its beginning, but program execution will be temporarily suspended when the first line of code in function "funct_name" is reached.
		Enter from the dbx command line: run and the program will begin to execute and execution will suspend on line one of main (this works best if function "main" is the FIRST function in your program).

	How do I Use a Debugger on the HPC Machines?
		Learning to use a debugger may be useful either for your own future projects or in aiding colleagues.

	Dbx debugger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		dbx is a popular, Unix-based source-level debugger found primarily on Solaris, AIX, IRIX, and BSD Unix systems.
		dbx was originally developed at UC Berkeley by Mark Linton and subsequently made its way to various vendors who had licensed BSD Unix.
		The dbx in Sun Studio supports programs compiled with the Sun Studio compilers as well as programs compiled with gcc and g++.

		The DBX debugger is used for source-level debugging, tracing variables and functions, controlling program execution, and monitoring memory locations.
		The object file used with the debugger is produced by specifying the appropriate compiler option (usually -g) on the compiler command line and linking the resulting object(s) to create an executable object file.
		If it was not compiled with debugging information DBX is much more limited in its tracing abilities.

		You don't always need breakpoints: for instance, if your program was giving you a segmentation violation, you can run the program in the debugger, and it will tell you exactly what line of code caused the segmentation violation.
		NOTE: the debugger needs to step one line past an assignment statement to reflect the new contents of the variable.
