Debugger Command Syntax

In general, a debugger command is made up of the following parts:

The command identifier (i.e., MD or md for the Memory Display command). Note that either upper- or lowercase is allowed.

A port number if the command is set up to work with more than one port.

At least one intervening space before the first argument.

Any required arguments, as specified by the command.

An option field, set off by a semicolon (;) to specify conditions other than the default conditions of the command.

The commands are shown using a modified Backus-Naur form syntax. The metasymbols used are:

boldface strings A boldface string is a literal such as a command or a program name, and is to be typed just as it appears.

italic strings

An italic string is a Òsyntactic variableÓ and is to be

 

replaced by one of a class of items it represents.

A vertical bar separating two or more items

 

indicates that a choice is to be made; only one of the

 

items separated by this symbol should be selected.

[ ]

Square brackets enclose an item that is optional. The

 

item may appear zero or one time.

{ }

Braces enclose an optional symbol that may occur

 

zero or more times.
