36 /* DEBUG_ExternalDebugger
38 * This function invokes an external debugger on the current
39 * wine process. The form of the command executed is:
40 * <debugger image> <wine image> <attach process id>
42 * The debugger command is normally invoked by a newly created xterm.
44 * The current calling process is temporarily put to sleep
45 * so that the invoked debugger has time to come up and attach.
47 * The following environment variables may be used:
49 * Name Use Default
50 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
51 * WINE_DBG_EXTERNAL debugger command to invoke ("gdb")
52 * WINE_DBG_LOCATION fully qualified location of wine image ("/usr/local/bin/wine")
53 * WINE_DBG_NO_XTERM if set do not invoke xterm with command (not set)
54 * WINE_DBG_SLEEPTIME number of seconds to make process sleep (120)
57 * Usage:
59 * #include "wine/debug.h"
61 * DEBUG_ExternalDebugger();
64 * Environment Example:
66 * export WINE_DBG_EXTERNAL="ddd"
67 * export WINE_DBG_NO_XTERM=1
68 * export WINE_DBG_SLEEPTIME=60
