How the Visualizer Works
The Visualizer is a stand-alone program to which TotalView sends information. Because it is separate, you can use it in multiple ways:
• You can see your program’s data while debugging in TotalView.
• You can save the data that would be sent to the Visualizer, and view it later by invoking the Visualizer from the command line.
• You can use a third party tool to read the datastream sent by TotalView, rather than using the Visualizer.
NOTE >> For more information on adapting a third-party visualizer so that it can be used with TotalView, see
“Adapting a Third Party Visualizer”.
