Multiple simultaneous Debugger sessions
In SNiFF+, a session refers to a process on UNIX or Windows NT/95. You can have multiple Debugger sessions running in different SNiFF+ sessions.
Multiple Debugger sessions in different SNiFF+ sessions
If you want to select the same target name in multiple Debugger sessions, you will have to start new SNiFF+ sessions and launch the Debugger in each of them.
- Start a SNiFF+ session by executing
% sniff -s <sniff_session_name>
on the command line.
<sniff_session_name> is a session id that uniquely identifies each SNiFF+ session.
The session id is a string and cannot contain any blank spaces within it.
If you start SNiFF+ without the -s option, the value of the
SNIFF_SESSION_ID
environment variable is used by default for the session id. If
SNIFF_SESSION_ID
is
not set,
session0
is used for the session id. See also SNIFF_SESSION_ID
In each SNiFF+ session, open a Source Editor tool and launch the Debugger from it.
Select the target that you want to debug.
