Syntax of Native Inspect Commands
Native Inspect Manual—528122-003
3-77
version option
version option
A command-line option that displays the versions of Native Inspect, GDB, and the Tool
Command Language (Tcl). This option is an alias for the show command with the
version option.
vq command
Displays information about process segments or, if you specify a segid, changes the
selectable segment viewed by Native Inspect.
segid
is the segment ID for the segment about which to display information.
The segment corresponding to segid becomes the current in-use segment (marked
with the letter g) for Native Inspect commands. (The current in-use segment for the
process itself is marked with the letter p.)
If you do not specify a segid, the vq command displays information about the
extended segments allocated by the current process.
wait command
Instructs Native Inspect to stop prompting and wait for a Debug event to occur or for
you to press the Break key.
You might need to use the wait command when debugging multiple processes
because debugging events for processes other than the current process are reported
only when Native Inspect waits (implicitly or explicitly) for events for the current
process.
whatis command
Prints the data type of a specified expression.
--version
vq [ segid ]
wait
whatis expression
