X-Hacker.org- Watcom Debugger Guide - use the trace command to step through the execution of your program. the http://www.X-Hacker.org [<<Previous Entry] [^^Up^^] [Next Entry>>] [Menu] [About The Guide]
Use the Trace command to step through the execution of your program.  The
Trace command is:


     Trace [/Assembly|/Mixed|/Source] [/Into|/Next|/Over]

/Assembly
    trace through your assembly code on instruction at a time.

/Mixed
    trace execution of the application one source statement at a time, or
    one instruction at a time when no source text is available.

/Source
    trace execution of the application one source statement at a time.

/Into
    continue execution to the next statement or assembly instruction.  If
    the current statement or instruction invokes a routine, then the next
    statement or instruction is the first one called in the routing.

/Next
    continue execution to the next statement or assembly instruction that
    immediately follows the current statement or instruction in memory.  If
    the current statement or instruction is one that branches, be sure that
    the execution path eventually executed the statement or instruction that
    follows.  If the program does not executed this point, the program may
    execute to completion.

/Over
    continue execution to the next statement or assembly instruction.  If
    the current statement or instruction invokes a routine, then the next
    statement or instruction is the one that follows the invocation of the
    routine.
