What are the runtime debuggers available in AIX? for the C language? I know we have dbx - Crap
gdb - Good but doesnt work.
Any other?
A:
Are you asking about AIX's native C compiler? If so consult your IBM saleman. You can of course run GCC on AIX, and use the gdb debugger. This has a number of front-ends for it, the best of which is probably DDD.

Sorry, I have a pathological dislike of people who think it is "kewel" not to spell properly. I won't be answering any more of your questions here.

A:
IBM Debugger - /usr/idebug/idebug
GNU Debugger should also work - /opt/freeware/bin/gdb

Totalview. Best debugger for AIX by a country mile. Interface is old hat motif but functionally very good. Great at threads by the way.
