System Debug Command Specifications M-X
STORE
single step into the system NL or SL (or any portion of code he/she does not have access to
view), Debug stops single stepping and free-runs the process (for example, proceed as if the
CONTINUE command had been issued). For native mode processes, Debug stops processing
as soon as it returns from the inaccessible code. For compatibility mode processes, the
process continues to run until it encounters a breakpoint.
Parameters
num_instrs The number of instructions to be executed. If omitted, a single instruction
is executed. Negative values are converted to positive values.
L[OUD] | Q[UIET] If LOUD is specified, the address where the process stopped is
printed. If QUIET is specified, no message is displayed. The default is
LOUD.
Examples
%cmdebug > s
%cmdebug >
Single step to the next instruction.
%cmdebug > ss 5 l
Step to: PROG %0.172
%cmdebug >
Step 5 instructions "loudly", that is, print the ending address.
$nmdebug > s #20 l
Step to: 115.00005f0c processstudent+$1e8
$nmdebug >
Step 20 instructions, and print the address when stopped.
Limitations, Restrictions
The single step command cannot be used within a macro that is invoked as a function.
STORE
Stores the currently defined macros or variables to a file.
Syntax
STORE MACROS filename
STORE VARIABLES filename
The STORE command quickly saves macros or variables to a binary file. At a later point, the
RESTORE command can be used to restore these saved macros or variables.
The current limits (as set by ENV MACROS or ENV VARS and ENV VARS_LOC) are
