Configuring the command-line debugger

You can configure the current session of the fdb command-line debugger using variables that exist entirely within fdb; they are not part of your application. The configuration variables are prefixed with $.

The following table describes the most common configuration variables used by fdb:

Variable

Description

$invokegetters

Set to 0 to prevent fdb from firing getter functions. The default value is 1 (enabled).

$listsize

Sets the number of lines to display with the list command. The default value is 10.

To set the value of a configuration variable, you use the set command, as the following example shows:

(fdb) set $invokegetters = 0 

For more information on using the set command, see Changing data values.
