NAME

       ocamldebug - the OCaml source-level replay debugger.

SYNOPSIS

       ocamldebug [ options ] program [ arguments ]

DESCRIPTION

       ocamldebug is the OCaml source-level replay debugger.

       Before the debugger can be used, the program must be compiled and linked with the -g option: all .cmo and
       .cma  files that are part of the program should have been created with ocamlc -g, and they must be linked
       together with ocamlc -g.

       Compiling with -g entails no penalty  on  the  running  time  of  programs:  object  files  and  bytecode
       executable  files are bigger and take longer to produce, but the executable files run at exactly the same
       speed as if they had been compiled without -g.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options are included below.  For a complete description, see the html documentation  in  the
       ocaml-doc package.

       -c count
              Set the maximum number of simultaneously live checkpoints to count.

       -cd dir
              Run the debugger program from the working directory dir, instead of the current working directory.
              (See also the cd command.)

       -emacs Tell the debugger it is executed under Emacs.  (See The OCaml user's manual for information on how
              to run the debugger under Emacs.)  Implies -machine-readable.

       -I directory
              Add  directory to the list of directories searched for source files and compiled files.  (See also
              the directory command.)

       -machine-readable
              Print information in a format  more  suitable  for  machines  instead  of  human  operators  where
              applicable.  For  example,  when  describing  a  location  in  a  program, such as when printing a
              backtrace, print the program counter and character offset in a file instead of the filename,  line
              number, and character offset in that line.

       -s socket
              Use  socket  for  communicating  with  the  debugged  program.  See the description of the command
              set socket in The OCaml user's manual for the format of socket.

       -version
              Print version string and exit.

       -vnum  Print short version number and exit.

       -help or --help
              Display a short usage summary and exit.
