Using the CLI
Enter a CLI or Tcl command into the view, which works the same way as when interacting with a Tcl interpreter.
The CLI does not require that your program be stopped when it prompts for and performs commands. It only requires that the last CLI command be complete before it can begin executing the next one. In many cases, the processes and threads being debugged continue to execute after the CLI has completed execution of the command.
To stop an executing CLI command or Tcl macro, press Ctrl+C.
The CLI displays state information and various messages. To limit its output, set the
VERBOSE variable to
WARNING or
ERROR. (For more information, see
“TotalView Variables”.)
