QNX debugger in a linux terminal

Hallo,

I’m accessing a qnx host sometimes through a linux (X)terminal. Unfortunately my
knowledge with terminals is very small, so the debugger didn’t.

Has anybody experiances with it and can show me a possibility to configure that.

Thanks a lot
Alexander

In a Linux Xterm:

telnet QNXWorkStation
Enter terminal type : xterm (probably not necessary)
login: itsme
password: secret

wd -console=tty ProgramToDebug

sorry, I can’t figure out what console I should fill in. Did you do it that way?
What is your exact command line ?

Thanks
Alexander

I think that is his exact command line, except for ProgramToDebug,
isn’t it?

Doesn’t the ‘c’ in console need to be upper-case (‘C’)?

Yes, it is the exact command line / no “console” with lower case c
works for me. I did anwer to Alexanders question by email. But for
the public: please regard the backquotes `` around tty. This means
that the output of the program tty should be used instead of the
character sequence tty. Of course it is possible to simply
execute tty and start the program with the given console value:

tty
//1/dev/ttyp0
wd -console=//1/dev/ttyp0

Best regards,

David
