OCAMLDEBUG(1)
NAME
ocamldebug - the Objective Caml source-level replay debugger.
SYNOPSIS
ocamldebug [options] program [arguments]
DESCRIPTION
ocamldebug is the Objective Caml source-level replay debugger.
Before the debugger can be used, the program must be compiled and
linked with the -g option: all .cmo and .cma files that are part of the
program should have been created with ocamlc -g, and they must be
linked together with ocamlc -g.
Compiling with -g entails no penalty on the running time of programs:
object files and bytecode executable files are bigger and take longer
to produce, but the executable files run at exactly the same speed as
if they had been compiled without -g.
OPTIONS
A summary of options are included below. For a complete description,
see the html documentation in the ocaml-doc package.
- -c count
- Set the maximum number of simultaneously live checkpoints to count.
- -cd dir
- Run the debugger program from the working directory dir, instead of the current working directory. (See also the cd command.)
- -emacs Tell the debugger it is executed under Emacs. (See The Objec
- tive Caml user's manual for information on how to run the debugger under Emacs.)
- -I directory
- Add directory to the list of directories searched for source files and compiled files. (See also the directory command.)
- -s socket
- Use socket for communicating with the debugged program. See the description of the command set socket in The Objective Caml user's manual for the format of socket.
- -version
- Print version and exit.
- -help or --help
- Display a short usage summary and exit.
