Earlier releases of SCODB

Version 2.4.0 of SCODB is for the SCO OpenServer Release 5.0.5 kernel. The following features are new to this release:

• Automatic creation of the stundef and vardef files for the user-level scodb command.

• The boot code is modified to show when scodb is configured and the current DBKEY value that determines the key strokes used to invoke kernel-level scodb.

Version 2.3.0 of SCODB is for the SCO OpenServer Release 5.0.4 kernel. The following features are new to this version:

• support for emacs style editing (see ``Setting the edit mode'')

• user-level scodb(ADM) debugging.

Version 2.2.0 of SCODB is used on the SCO OpenServer 5 Release 5.0.0 kernel. The following features were new to that version:

• Four new SCODB functions: saveu( ), dbtty( ), vuifile( ), and eps( ).

• Value breakpoints (break when a memory location reaches a specified value).

• Displaying of source code line numbers in the disassembly listing.

• <Ctrl>u and <Ctrl>d movement keys in the disassembly mode.

• Displaying function arguments symbolically in stack backtraces.

• Displaying the effective address of indirect call instructions during single-stepping (for example, call 14(%eax) <htnamei>).

• Use of the ``e'' and ``j''' keys as aliases to the <Space> key during single-stepping. Allows uninterrupted single-stepping through call instructions when used repeat-key fashion.
