dbg question

[Siri Hansen (EAB)]

Hi Robert!

For me it works when the trace port is started first. The client needs
a trace port which it can connect to, else it crashes with connection
refused.

I agree that it is a bit strange that there is no error returned -
I'll look into that. But given the current situation, try linking to
the Pid to see the error message:

1> Pid = dbg:trace_client(ip,4711),link(Pid).    
true
** exited: {error,econnrefused} **
2> is_process_alive(Pid).                    
false
3> 


Starting the trace port first works for me:

4> dbg:tracer(port, dbg:trace_port(ip,4711)).
{ok,<0.39.0>}
5> Pid = dbg:trace_client(ip,4711).
<0.41.0>
6> is_process_alive(Pid).
true
7>
