Library /sys$common/syshlp/dbg$help.hlb DEBUG, Client-Server Interface *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
The OpenVMS Debugger has an optional client/server configuration that allows you to access the debugger and its functions from a PC or a workstation. The debugger client/server retains the functionality of the OpenVMS kept debugger, but splits the debugger into two components, the debug server and the debug client. The interface of the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS debug client is similar to the Motif interface of the standalone debugger. The debug server runs on an OpenVMS system, similar to the kept debugger without the user interface. The debug client contains the user interface, and runs on an OpenVMS system using Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS, or on a PC running Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows NT. The following table shows the systems on which the debug client and the debug server run: Debug Debug Client Server System X X OpenVMS VAX X X OpenVMS Alpha X Microsoft Windows 95 Intel X Microsoft Windows 98 Intel X Microsoft Windows NT Alpha X Microsoft Windows NT Intel The OpenVMS client-server configuration allows the following: o Remote access to OpenVMS Debug Servers from other OpenVMS systems or from PCs running Windows 95 or Windows NT Version 3.51 or later o Client access to multiple servers, each running on the same or different OpenVMS nodes o Multiple clients on different nodes to simultaneously connect to the same server for teaching or team debugging o Debugging of multi-tier client/server applications that are distributed among several mixed-platform systems
