Message-ID: <168@mplvax.UUCP> Date: Fri, 11-Jan-85 15:43:35 EST Article-I.D.: mplvax.168 Posted: Fri Jan 11 15:43:35 1985 Date-Received: Mon, 14-Jan-85 03:34:49 EST Organization: Marine Physical Laborator of SIO at UCSD Lines: 12 With the 4.2 distribution of UNIX I, and my users, have found that the dbx debugger is just about useless for debugging f77 programs. One big problem is that while you are in a subroutine you couldn't examine any variables. There are many many other problems. My question is, how do you debug your f77 programs? Do you use a modified version of sdb? a fixed version of dbx? print statements? Any advise or pointers regarding the above would be appreciated. -- John McInerney sdcsvax!mplvax!john UUCP john@nosc ARPA
