Debug Wnd

The Dubug Window is used to analyze the traces files.

There's 2 way to open the Debuggin Window:

•By clicking the "Debug Wnd" button of the File/Debug group.

•Directly from the keyboard by typing both the "Ctrl" key and "d" at the same time.

The Debug Window Interface


Line summary	Tell you what is the currently selected trace line and the total number of lines.
Main window	This section is split in 2 to n sub-windows. The left one is the trace line number, the second one is the main trace. If sliceOmatic spawn a sub-process, it will have its own sub-window. You can resize any of the sub-windows by moving the separator bar between sub-windows.
Up/Down and pan	At the bottom of each sub-window, you have a up and down arrow. These can be used to go to the first or last line of trace present in the sub-window. You can also use the "pan" slider to pan the text horizontally inside the each sub-window.
Search	The search interface enable you to search for text in the trace,
Stack	This window show you the current stack nesting of the functions for the current selected line in the trace.
Modules	This group enable you to add/remove traces lines specific to certain modules. You can also assign colors to the trace lines according to the module they belong to. Only the modules present in the trace can be selected.
Functions	This group enable you to add/remove traces lines specific to certain functions. You can also assign colors to the trace lines according to the functiopn they belong to. Only the functions present in the trace can be selected.
Trace Level	This group enable you to add/remove traces lines specific to certain trace levels. You can also assign colors to the trace lines according to the level they belong to. Only the levels present in the trace can be selected.
New Trace	Open the trace interface. The default Modules, Functions and levels of the trace interface will be set to the values from the debugging interface.
Load Trace	Load the latest trace file generated (from "sliceOmatic_trace.dat" in your "Scratch" directory).
Clean Trace	Traces tend to be very repetitive. This will remove duplicated lines in the trace. It wil only keep the fisrt and last 5 instances of any specific lines or group of lines. Since we usually want to see what the program was doing at the time of a crash, this is more than enough.
Save Trace	Save a copy of the trace to the desktop. This is the file you should send to TomoVision.
Exit	Exit the debugging interface.

Note:

The IPC lines will always be in color, regardless of the "Color" selection for the modules, functions or trace levels.

Main window

This section is split in 2 to n sub-windows. The left one is the trace line number, the second one is the main trace. If sliceOmatic spawn a sub-process, it will have its own sub-window. You can resize any of the sub-windows by moving the separator bar between sub-windows.

Up/Down and pan

At the bottom of each sub-window, you have a up and down arrow. These can be used to go to the first or last line of trace present in the sub-window. You can also use the "pan" slider to pan the text horizontally inside the each sub-window.

Search

The search interface enable you to search for text in the trace,
