NOTE:

Use the set frame-count setting in the rtconfig file to control the depth

of the stack trace file. This command controls the depth of the call stack collected. Larger
values increase the run time.

14.11.5.1 Pre-requisites for Batch mode of Thread Debugging

The various prerequisites for Batch mode of Thread Debugging are as follows:

The thread-debugging feature in HP WDB is dependent on the availability of the
dynamic linker version B.11.19.

Advanced thread-debugging feature requires the pthread tracer library which is
available by default on systems running HP-UX 11i v2 or later.

Steps to debug threads in batch mode

1.

Compile the source files.

Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, based on the platform as
follows:

For 32 bit IPF applications, set

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/langtools/wdb/lib/hpux32

For 64 bit IPF applications, set

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/langtools/wdb/lib/hpux64

For 64-bit PA applications, set

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/langtools/wdb/lib/pa20_64

2.

Map the share libraries as private for HP 9000 systems using the following
command:

$ chatr +dbg enable ./

NOTE:

This step is not applicable for Integrity systems.

3.

Create a configuration file, rtcconfig to specify the various thread conditions
that you want the debugger to detect.
