Library /sys$common/syshlp/dbg$help.hlb DEBUG, DISPLAY, Qualifiers, /PROCESS *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
/PROCESS[=(process-spec)] /NOPROCESS (default) Used only when debugging multiprocess programs (kept debugger only). Controls whether the specified display is process specific (that is, whether the specified display is associated only with a particular process). The contents of a process-specific display are generated and modified in the context of that process. You can make any display process specific, except the PROMPT display. The /PROCESS=(process-spec) qualifier causes the specified display to be associated with the specified process. You must include the parentheses. Use any of the following process-spec forms: [%PROCESS_NAME] process- The process name, if that name does not name contain spaces or lowercase characters. The process name can include the asterisk (*) wildcard character. [%PROCESS_NAME] The process name, if that name contains "process-name" spaces or lowercase characters. You can also use apostrophes (') instead of quotation marks ("). %PROCESS_PID process_id The process identifier (PID, a hexadecimal number). [%PROCESS_NUMBER] The number assigned to a process when process-number it comes under debugger control. A (or %PROC process- new number is assigned sequentially, number) starting with 1, to each process. If a process is terminated with the EXIT or QUIT command, the number can be assigned again during the debugging session. Process numbers appear in a SHOW PROCESS display. Processes are ordered in a circular list so they can be indexed with the built-in symbols %PREVIOUS_PROCESS and %NEXT_PROCESS. process-set-name A symbol defined with the DEFINE/PROCESS_SET command to represent a group of processes. %NEXT_PROCESS The next process after the visible process in the debugger's circular process list. %PREVIOUS_PROCESS The process previous to the visible process in the debugger's circular process list. %VISIBLE_PROCESS The process whose stack, register set, and images are the current context for looking up symbols, register values, routine calls, breakpoints, and so on. The /PROCESS qualifier causes the specified display to be associated with the process that was the visible process when the DISPLAY/PROCESS command was executed. The /NOPROCESS qualifier (which is the default) causes the specified display to be associated with the visible process, which might change during program execution. If you do not specify /PROCESS, the current process-specific behavior (if any) of the specified display remains unchanged.
