libpath.
Type:
set help=seedumpdir;%HELP%
SeeDump [dumpfilename]
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1. Configuration Variables ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Configuration Variables
Various paths can be set using the REXX functions set or add in the files
bprofile.bag or bstartup.bag.
The paths can also be set using the menu item Configuration.
It is also possible to use the following environment variables to configure
SeeDump:
Name Purpose
SEEDUMPDUMPDIR Path in which to write the dump files.
SEEDUMPEXCEPTIONHANDLER When set, a dump file will be written in the event
of a trap/exception.
SEEDUMPMAXDUMPS This variable can be used to set the maximum
number of dump files which will be written in one
particular directory. Whether a new dump file will
be written or not can be controlled by the
DUMPER_NEWFILE setting in the SEEDUMPREGREC
structure. If DUMPER_NEWFILE is set then the
environment variable SEEDUMPMAXDUMPS will first be
checked to determine the maximum number allowed. A
number between 0 and 10 is allowed. If the
variable is not set then the default maximum of 10
will be used (DM0-9).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2. Error Reporting ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Should an error occur using SeeDump, please report this to a priori computer
solutions using one of the possible communication methods given by clicking on
the name. We wish to provide the best possible software to help you find
critical errors in your software and to do that, we need your input.
o If you have a problem which results in a trap/exception in SeeDump itself,
set the environment variable described in environment variables and
reproduce the error. This will produce a dump file which we can analyze.
Send the dump file (packed, which should reduce it to a manageable size)
together with the version number information from the about box and a
description of how the error occurred.
o If you get a popup message which results in the program terminating and
this problem persists, then send the following information:
1. build number from the about box.
2. the error log which was written at the time of the error. This file is
an ASCII text file containing further information about the error. It
will be written to the root directory on the C disk and will have a
name of the type DATT_nnn.log where nnn is a number between 000 and
050. Find the file which relates to the error you have and copy it to a
diskette or print the information contained in the file.
3. a description of the error situation and your hard- and software
configuration.
o If SeeDump reports incorrect results or does not function as you expect,
please contact a priori with the following:
1. build number from the about box.
2. a description of the error situation and your hard- and software
configuration.
o If you have suggestions for improvements, please contact a priori, and we
will try our best to provide these in a future release.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.3. Limitations ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The following known limitations exist:
o The log file can not be set in the bprofile.bag command file. This leads to
unpredictable behavior. It can be set in bstartup.bag or using the menu
option.
o Array variables with more than 1 dimension can not be displayed directly.
Use the Show As menu item to examine this type of variable.
o Pointer variables which have a greater nesting level than 2 can not be
displayed directly. Use the Show As menu item to examine this type of
variable.
o An array of typedefs which define a pointer to an anonymous structure can
not be displayed directly if examining a CSet dump. Use the Show As menu
item to examine this type of variable.
o A type which defines an array of another type will display the correct type
information but this can not be directly displayed. See above
multi-dimensional arrays.
o DLLs which are loaded at runtime using DosLoadModule are not supported at
the moment.
o Source code and other support for Borland has not yet been completed.
o The maximum amount of data that can be shown in Hex Format has been limited
to 64K bytes in length.
o A maximum of 1000 stack variables per function can be displayed.
o A maximum of 1000 functions will be shown in the trace history window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.4. Tips ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The following tips will help you to use SeeDump efficiently and with minimum
errors:
o always exit the main function with exit or _exit. Using return can lead to
problems because the SeeDump exception handler will not be notified that
the program is terminating.
o when terminating a thread which was started with _beginthread, always use
_endthread. Pass the address of _endthread to the SeeDump exception handler
in the SEEDUMPREGREC structure or use the macro SetEndThreadXCPTHandler
with the parameter _endthread.
o always ensure that the DLLs required by your program are either available
in a directory in the libpath setting or in the DLLs directory in the
SeeDump Settings Notebook.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Windows ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The following information about a dump file can be displayed:
o Global Variables
o Stack Variables
o Stack Trace
o Loaded Modules
o Slot Dump
o Exception Information
o Register
o Hex Data
o Type Data
A useful strategy to follow is to first display the stack trace and then the
exception information. Further analysis is dependent on the type of exception
that occurred. It will however normally involve examining the code and stack
variables at the time of the trap. This can be done by selecting the relevant
function from the stack trace window and displaying the stack variables and
code for this function.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.1. Stack Trace Window ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Stack Trace Window displays details about the function call history leading
up to the exception. The functions are displayed in the reverse call order, so
that the last function called will be displayed at the beginning of the list.
The following information is displayed in this window:
Function The name of the function.
File The name of the file where the function can be found.
EIP The last executing address in this function.
EBP/ESP The stack frame current at the time of the trap/exception.
The user can select an item to analyze from the list presented. A popup menu is
available by clicking mouse button 2. The default action performed when the
user presses ENTER is equivalent to the Stack Variables menu item below. This
action is only possible for user functions.
The popup menu offers the following choices:
Stack variables
Shows the stack variables window and source window for the selected function.
Edit EBP
This item allows the user to manually edit the value of the EBP for the
selected function by displaying a simple dialog which allows the user to enter
a new value for the EBP. This is normally not necessary, as the value shown is
correct. If, however, the value has been corrupted, then this can lead to
spurious results. By changing this value the user can investigate the values of
the stack variables which result when the EBP has the value specified. A new
dialog is displayed which allows the user to change the value of the EBP.
Help

to the submenu of this item. If it had no submenu, one will be created.
A frame is drawn around the destination item.
On an horizontal or matrix toolbar, the dropped item can go either to the left
or to the right of the destination item, depending on the drop zone.
On a vertical toolbar, it goes to the top or to the bottom of the destination
You can drop on the part of the toolbar where there are no items, the dropped
item will be added at the end.
An item can be rendered as a bitmap file.
If its bitmap comes from a file and not from the application, an item can be
dropped for example on iconedit to edit its bitmap.
If a bitmap file is dropped, a new item using this bitmap is created.
An item can also be dropped on the shredder to be deleted.
