Re: issue-#187 adding a run-time debugger to BlackBox
Posted: Tue Jun 05, 2018 4:55 pm
I have been away / busy in the last few weeks, and am rather struggling to catch up!
I have just down-loaded version 1031 to try this, and have found the instructions "The debugger is started by executing the specified cmdLine after appending the option /LOAD DevRTDebug" in DevDebugCmds Docu, and "If you want to debug a command M.P then select M.P in a text viewer and execute Dev->Debug Command" in this thread.
I don't know how to do either of these things.
Where do you specify the cmdLine? Is it a field in the usual desktop icon, or do you need to use the Windows Run window?
And how do you open "the Debug tool opened in the attached debugger process"?
Also, does the phrase "The run-time debugger is another BlackBox process ..." need explaining; I don't understand its significance?
