The IBM Debugger for AIX, V13.1 is included with the XL C/C++ installation image. This source-level debugger uses a client/server model:
  • The debug engine is a server component that is installed on AIX.
  • The debug client is a graphical user interface that is installed on Windows workstations.

The installation file, idebug.install_8.0.0.zip, of the Windows debug client is in the IBMdebugger/windows/ directory of the installation image.

Notes:
  • The IBM Debugger for AIX, V13.1 supersedes the IBM Distributed Debugger. If the IBM Distributed Debugger, V9.2 is installed on your system, it will be removed upon installation of the IBM Debugger for AIX, V13.1. The post-installation script then modifies the idebug fileset levels in the Object Data Manager (ODM) database to 99.99.9999.9999 to prevent future installations of idebug.* filesets.
  • The AIX client of the IBM Debugger for AIX is discontinued.
  • The IBM Debugger for AIX, V13.1 debug engine filesets, ibmdebugger.*, are automatically installed during a basic compiler installation. To install the Windows debug client of the IBM Debugger, see the README file included in idebug.install_8.0.0.zip.
