Format
dcont
Arguments
This command has no arguments
Description
The dcont command continues all processes and threads in the current focus, and then waits for all of them to stop.
NOTE >> You can interrupt this action using Ctrl+Cto stop process execution.
A dcont command completes when all threads in the focus set of processes stop executing. If you do not indicate a focus, the default focus is the process of interest (POI).
This command is a Tcl macro, with the following definition:
proc dcont {args} {uplevel dgo; "dwait $args" }
You often want this behavior in scripts. You seldom want to do it interactively.

Examples
dcont
Resumes execution of all stopped threads that are not held and which belong to processes in the current focus. (This command does not affect threads that are held at barriers.) The command blocks further input until all threads in all target processes stop. After the CLI displays its prompt, you can enter additional commands.
dfocus p1 dcont
Resumes execution of all stopped threads that are not held and that belong to process 1. The CLI does not accept additional commands until the process stops.
dfocus {p1 p2 p3} co
Resumes execution of all stopped threads that are not held and that belong to processes 1, 2, and 3.
CO
Resumes execution of all stopped threads that are not held and that belong to the current group.
