Debugger user's guide

IBM® TPF Toolkit features an integrated debugging and development environment that can be configured and customized to provide a seamless integration from design to verification.

To use the z/TPF debugger, you must have TPF Toolkit.

A z/TPF debugger session uses the following components:

z/TPF debug server, which receives registration requests from a client and adds trace entries to the trace table. The z/TPF debug server runs on a z/TPF system.
Debug registration client on the workstation, which is used to define a trace entry and send registration requests. The debug registration client is part of TPF Toolkit, which runs on your workstation.
Debug daemon, which receives debug session requests and starts a z/TPF debugger session on the workstation. The debug daemon is part of TPF Toolkit, which runs on your workstation.
z/TPF debugger engine, which sends requests to the debug daemon to establish a z/TPF debugger session, receives debugger client requests, services the requests, and sends responses to the client. The z/TPF debugger engine runs on a z/TPF system.
