<H2 CLASS="section"><A NAME="htoc41">15</A> Debugging support</H2><A NAME="sec-debugger"></A>
Most of the time we debug our code using the Errormsg module along with the
pretty printer. But if you want to use the Ocaml debugger here is an easy way
to do it. Say that you want to debug the invocation of cilly that arises out
of the following command:
<PRE CLASS="verbatim">
cilly -c hello.c
</PRE>
You must follow the installation <A HREF="../ccured/setup.html">instructions</A>
to install the Elist support files for ocaml and to extend your .emacs
appropriately. Then from within Emacs you do
<PRE CLASS="verbatim">
ALT-X my-camldebug
</PRE>
This will ask you for the command to use for running the Ocaml debugger
(initially the default will be “ocamldebug” or the last command you
introduced). You use the following command:
<PRE CLASS="verbatim">
cilly --ocamldebug -c hello.c
</PRE>
This will run <TT>cilly</TT> as usual and invoke the Ocaml debugger when the cilly
engine starts. The advantage of this way of invoking the debugger is that the
directory search paths are set automatically and the right set or arguments is
passed to the debugger. <BR>
