Syntax of Native Inspect Commands

detach command
•
To display the expressions on the automatic display list, use the info command with
the display option or enter the display command with no arguments.
detach command
Disassociates Native Inspect from the current process or from a specified process.
Removes the current process from the set of processes being debugged and allows
the process to continue executing.
If only one process is being debugged by Native Inspect, there is no current process
after you enter the detach command.
If you do not enter a pin, this command detaches Native Inspect from the current
process.
Related Commands: Detach is the complement of the attach command.
pin
is the process number of a process under the control of Native Inspect from which
you want to detach.
Considerations
•
Before entering the detach command, you should typically clear all breakpoints in
the process and continue process execution. If breakpoints are set in the process,
Native Inspect displays a confirmation prompt.
•
If the process you name in a detach command is suspended, it will automatically
be resumed.
•
If you enter the detach command when breakpoints are set in the process, Native
Inspect issues a warning describing the situation and gives you the option of
continuing or aborting the operation.
Example
