Synopsis#

#include "petscsys.h"   
PetscErrorCode PetscSetDebugger(const char debugger[], PetscBool usedebugterminal)

Not Collective; No Fortran Support

Input Parameters#

  • debugger - name of debugger, which should be in your path, usually “lldb”, “dbx”, “gdb”, “cuda-gdb”, “idb”, “xxgdb”, “kdgb” or “ddd”. Also, HP-UX supports “xdb”, and IBM rs6000 supports “xldb”.

  • usedebugterminal - flag to indicate debugger window, set to either PETSC_TRUE (to indicate debugger should be started in a new terminal window) or PETSC_FALSE (to start debugger in initial window (the option PETSC_FALSE makes no sense when using more than one MPI process.)
