The Program Settings Dialog</h1>
|
|
<p>In this dialog, program specific settings can be selected. It is invoked
|
|
by <i>Settings|This Program</i>. The settings apply only to the currently loaded
|
|
executable and will be saved across sessions.</p>
|
|
<blockquote><b><i>Important note:</i></b> The chosen settings will only
|
|
apply the next time the executable is loaded into KDbg. This means that
|
|
after pressing
|
|
<i>OK</i> in this dialog, you must reload the executable
|
|
using <i>File|Recent Executables</i>!!</blockquote>

<h4>
|
|
How to invoke GDB</h4>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>Enter the command to invoke gdb. Leave this field empty to
|
|
use the default gdb command as specified in the <a href="globaloptions.html">global
|
|
options</a>. When you are cross-compiling and remote-debugging, you will
|
|
probably want to use a different gdb suitable for the target platform.
|
|
The default command is <tt>gdb --fullname --nx</tt>. Be sure to specify
|
|
at least <tt>--fullname</tt> if you change the gdb command.
|
|
If you remove this command switch, KDbg will not work.

<p>In this section, the terminal emulation under which the program will run
|
|
can be selected.</p>
|
|
<h4>
|
|
No input and output</h4>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>Check this option if your program does not receive input from
|
|
the terminal and you do not want to see the output that the program writes
|
|
to <tt>stdout</tt> and <tt>stderr</tt> (if any). All three standard channels
|
|
(<tt>stdin</tt>, <tt>stdout</tt>, and <tt>stderr</tt>) are effectively
|
|
redirected to <tt>/dev/null</tt>.</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<h4>
|
|
Only output, simple terminal emulation</h4>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>Check this option if your program does not receive input from
|
|
the terminal (<tt>stdin</tt> will be redirected to <tt>/dev/null</tt>),
|
|
and the output that it writes to <tt>stdout</tt> and <tt>stderr</tt> does
|
|
not require sophisticated terminal emulation. The output will be shown
|
|
in the <a href="pgmoutput.html">Output window</a>.
|
|
<br><i>Important:</i> The integrated terminal emulator will only interpret
|
|
the line-feed character <tt>\n</tt> (ASCII 10) to break lines. It will
|
|
<em>not</em>
|
|
handle the carriage-return character <tt>\r</tt> (ASCII 13). This is sufficient
|
|
for displaying plain debugging output that is often used by developers
|
|
of GUI programs.</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<h4>
|
|
Full terminal emulation</h4>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>Check this option if your program reads input from <tt>stdin</tt>
|
|
or if the output to <tt>stdout</tt> or <tt>stderr</tt> requires terminal
|
|
emulation. A terminal emulator will be invoked as specified in the <a href="globaloptions.html">global
|
|
options</a>.</blockquote>
