Description:
| ||||||
Documentation:
This macro set allows to store debug information in a file in a transparent mode to the user. The file is deleted each time the SPEC prompt is reached. Typical application is SPEC blocking during some device server access when one does not know the device being accessed and the error being hard to reproduce. SETUP The line debugfileon HAS TO BE in the setup. If it is called from the prompt the debug file will be deleted after each SPEC start not being able to recover the information of last crash. | ||||||
Macros:
Usage: debugfileon [keep_file_on_exit_flag] This macro sets SPEC into debug 192 mode and adds hooks in prompt_mac and end_mac to store the debug information. If last time SPEC did not quit properly the macro will refuse to be activated in order to keep the old debug file. Nevertheless, if one does not need the old debug file, one can first execute debugfileoff. If it desired to keep the debug file on normal SPEC exit it has to be executed with 1 as first argument. debugfileoff Usage: debugfileoff It deactivates the macros restoring debug 0 and removing the hooks. | ||||||
| Internal Macros: | ||||||
Usage: debug_fileon Implements a hook into prompt_mac debug_info Usage: debug_info This macro is called in prompt_mac. It deletes the debug file and opens it again. It calls savstate in order to store a variable (DEBUG_NON_STANDARD_END) that is used the next time SPEC starts. debug_inforesetup_end Usage: debug_inforesetup_end debugfile_end Usage: debugfile_end This macro is called by end_mac. It sets debug mode to 0 and deletes the debug file unless debugfileinfo was called with 1 as argument. | ||||||
