Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Deployment:
Startup Command and Parameter Reference

> ## Enable Attachable Debugging (-debugReady)

> Use Enable Attachable Debugging (`-debugReady`) to enable a Progress process (that is, a Progress 4GL client, a single WebSpeed agent, or single AppServer process) to be attached to by the Debugger.

> Operating system and syntax | UNIX Windows | `-debugReady` { 0 | `port-number` }
> Use with | Maximum value | Minimum value | Single-user default | Multi-user default
> Client Session | – | – | – | –

> ``port-number``

> The port on which Progress opens a socket for connecting to the attachable Debugger. If you want Progress to find an available port, enter 0 (zero). The default value is 0.

> A 4GL developer can attach the attachable Debugger to any Progress session running locally or remotely in a LAN environment. This allows the developer to run the Debugger on one machine and debug a Progress process running on another machine.

> You cannot specify both the Debugger (-debug) and Enable Attachable Debugging (`-debugReady`) startup parameters on the command line at the same time. If you do, Progress generates an error and shuts down.

> For more information about the attachable Debugger, see OpenEdge Development: Debugging and Troubleshooting .
