Startup Dialog

Note: The Startup dialog is available for debugging both local and remote client code, but for remote client code no list of remote executables is available from the Browse pushbutton.

Use the Startup dialog to start debugging a program. This dialog opens when you select File->Startup from a Source or Session Control window, or when you start the debugger without specifying the name of a program to debug.

You can enter the name of an executable , or, for OS/2 only, a dump file, in the Program entry field; select a recently debugged file from the pulldown list on that field; or choose a file from a file selection dialog by clicking on the Browse/File list button (after you have selected a file, you are returned to the Startup dialog).

Once you have entered the necessary information, select OK or press Enter to start the debugging session.

For information on other entry fields and check boxes on the Startup dialog, click on the appropriate items below.
