Process Window

Process Window Panes

The Process Window contains general information about the state of the process, with a summary of its current threads and their states. It also displays detailed information for one of the process’s threads. This thread is called the “current thread.”

The Process Window is divided into four areas:

Stack Trace Pane, which displays the call stack.

Stack Frame Pane, which displays information about the current thread’s variables.

Source Pane, which contains the source code or assembly instructions for your program.

Action Points Tab, which displays a list of the thread’s current action points.

Processes/Ranks Tab, which displays a grid containing the processes or ranks within the current control group.

Threads Tab, which contains a list of all active threads in the process.

Immediately above some panes is information about the process and thread being displayed:

The process bar displays process status information. This information includes the process ID (PID), a process name, and a status indicator. If the process is running on a remote machine, this information is also displayed.

The thread bar displays a thread ID, which is a combination of the PID and TID (thread ID) generated by TotalView and a status indicator. If the process is running on a remote machine, this information is also displayed.
