Syntax of Native Inspect Commands
Native Inspect Manual—528122-003
3-61
save command
save command
Creates a snapshot file (or save file) of the current TNS/E or TNS emulated process.
Snapshot files have file code 130 and are used for offline debugging.
filename
is the name of a TNS/E native process or a TNS emulated process.
!
forces the overwriting of the specified snapshot file. If the ! is not included and the
specified file already exists, Native Inspect reports an error.
select-frame command
Is the “silent” version of the frame command, select-frame command, and the syntax of
the two commands is similar. Select-frame only selects a frame and does not print out
information about the frame.
