DEBUG 

Syntax 

     DEBUG

or

     RUN PROGNAME;DEBUG

Operation 

System programmers use DEBUG to set breakpoints within programs and to
display and modify data stacks and registers.

To use the DEBUG utility, you must have privileged mode (PM) capability.
However, the ;DEBUG option of the RUN command is available to anybody and
allows users to debug their applications.


CAUTION Normal MPE safeguards are bypassed in privileged mode. When attempting to modify privileged data on disk, it is possible to destroy file integrity, or the MPE operating system itself. Hewlett-Packard is not responsible for changes that you make to the operating system or system files. For more information, talk to your Hewlett-Packard service representative.
