A starts up, and after a while, forks, sets up a pipe, then exec's B. The programs then do various communications over the pipe. My question is, how can I use dbx (or some other debugger?) to debug program B? If it matters, I am running on a DecStation 3100 using Ultrix 4.0. I understand that Saber-C handles this, but we don't have it yet. Am going to be stuck using printfs? -- Matt -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- = Matthew M.
