Starting a Debugging Session

See Also 

When you start a debugging session, dbxtool starts the dbx debugger and loads the program and its debugging information. dbxtool automatically opens the debugger windows and prints debugger output to the Dbx Console window.

Command Description
Debug > Debug Executable Opens the Debug Executable dialog box in which you can specify the local or remote host, the executable you want to debug, the run arguments, run directory, environment variables, debugging options, and runtime checking options. The program is loaded into the debugger.
Debug > Attach Debugger Opens the Attach dialog box in which you can select one of your currently active processes and specify its executable. The program to which you have attached stops executing and you can debug it as you would any program loaded into dbxtool. . .
Debug > Debug Core File Opens the Debug Core File dialog box in which you can specify the local or remote host, select a core file to debug, and if necessary, specify the executable.
Debug > Allow ss_attach requests Lets you capture a program as it starts executing and attach dbxtool to begin debugging it immediately, rather than attaching dbxtool after the process is running
Debug > Debug Recent Lets you capture a program as it starts executing and attach dbxtool to begin debugging it immediately, rather than attaching dbxtool after the process is running
