To debug a process that is active on the machine, select the Attach to process option in the Visual/Web debugger window's File menu.
The process to be debugged can be any active process that does not belong to the operating system. A confirmation box will be displayed, however, if the selected process is not an Adelia program.
The Attach function is only available for client programs generated in C.
When debugging a Cloud application, this dialog box switches to Cloud mode.
Check boxes
Display processes from all users
Checked |
Allows you to display processes from all users. An additional column appears indicating the user name associated with the process. |
Not checked |
Only the processes associated with the current user are displayed. |
Default: Not checked.
Note: This option is grayed out if the user does not have the "Debug Programs" advanced user right (see the Windows security policy).
This right allows users to debug programs which are not associated to them. Seeing as granting this right to users could present security problems, you should only grant it to approved users.
Check boxes (Cloud mode)
Display all processes
Checked |
Allows you to display all processes of the application. |
Not checked |
Only the processes of the session selected for attachment are displayed. |
Default: Not checked.
