debugapp − A wrapper for openapp.
debugapp [−−find] [−−gdb=...] application [arguments...]
debugapp is a tool that helps you start or find applications by name in debugging mode. It acts as a wrapper around openapp , and calls openapp with the −−debug option; we recommend using openapp directly.
By default gdb is used as the debugger, but this can be changed with the −−gdb= option or through the GDB enviroment variable.
The arguments are the arguments passed to the application.
See the openapp (1) man-page for a complete description.
Work on debugapp started in October 1997 by Ovidiu Predescu <ovidiu AT net-community DOT com>. In October 2006 Nicola Pero <nicola DOT pero AT meta-innovation DOT com> merged it with openapp.
