Debugging an Application</A>
</H1>
Debugging an application is quite simple. You compile it with
debugging enabled, as in
<PRE>
make debug=yes
</PRE>
<P>
The application directory is then created with a different name:
<TT>debug</TT> is appended instead of <TT>app</TT> (again, this allows
you to keep both the debug and not-debug versions at the same time).
In the example, the application directory would be called
<TT>PanelTest.debug</TT>.
<P>
To debug the application, use <TT>debugapp</TT> instead of
<TT>openapp</TT>:
<PRE>
debugapp PanelTest.debug
</PRE>
This will run <TT>gdb</TT> (the GNU debugger) on the executable
setting everything ready for debugging.
