The inline breakpoint features can degrade performance of the application that is be-
ing debugged. You can explicitly disable the breakpoint features when the fea-

14.8.2.1 Debugging Inline Functions in Integrity Systems
To debug inline functions in Integrity syste ms , complete the following steps:
Step 1:
The application must be compiled with the -g option for inline debugging. No ad-
ditional options are required.
For example:
/opt/aCC/bin/aCC -g test.c
Step 2:
Inline debugging without the breakpoint feature is enabled by default. You can mod-
ify the inline debugging settings by toggling the options for the set inline-
debug command.
To enable inline debugging without inline breakpoint support, enter ei-
ther of the following commands:
(gdb) set inline-debug on
or
$ gdb --inline = on
To set and modify breakpoints c ollectively on all instances of inline func-
tions and enable inline debugging, enter either of the following commands:
(gdb) set inline-debug inline_bp_all
or
$ gdb --inline = inline_bp_all
To set and modify individual breakpoints on specific instances of inline func-
tions and enable inline debugging, enter e ither of the following commands be-
fore debugging the application:
