Attaching dbxtool to a Process as It Starts

See Also 

You can capture a program as it starts executing and attach dbxtool to begin debugging it immediately, rather than attaching dbxtool after the process is running. You might want to do so for two reasons:

To attach the Debugger to a process as the process starts:

  1. In dbxtool, choose Debug > Allow ss_attach requests to enable this type of attach.
  2. At the shell prompt in a console window, type the following:
    ss_attach program_name [ arguments ]
    
    For detailed information on the ss_attach command, see the ss_attach(1) man page.
  3. A dialog box opens in dbxtool displaying the name of the executable, its arguments, and the working directory, and asking if you want to attach the program to dbxtool. Click Yes to attach the program and start debugging it
  4. A new debugging session is created for the program, and the program runs to the first instruction in main().
