The Debugger Session Scenario
The following explains the scenario under which the sample debugger
session runs.
________________________________________________________________________
|You're developing a program to read and process rainfall data. |
|Proceeding in stages, you're developing the user input section and |
|the portion that fills in an array with data from the rainfall |
|file. |
| |
|During tests, you've encountered program aborts with messages |
|indicating that access to memory outside your program's allotment has |
|occurred. This type of error most frequently results from bad |
|pointer arithmetic or bad array subscripts, especially in a loop. |
|This program does no explicit pointer arithmetic, so you've |
|decided to use HP Symbolic Debugger to check the loops in your |
|program. |
