C.3 Using DDD with DBX
======================

When used for debugging Pascal-like programs, DDD does not infer
correct array subscripts and always starts to count with 1.

   With some DBX versions (notably Solaris DBX), DDD strips C-style and
C++-style comments from the DBX output in order to interpret it
properly.  This also affects the output of the debugged program when
sent to the debugger console.  Using the separate execution window
avoids these problems.

   In some DBX versions (notably DEC DBX and AIX DBX), there is no
automatic data display.  As an alternative, DDD uses the DBX `print'
command to access data values.  This means that variable names are
interpreted according to the current frame; variables outside the
current frame cannot be displayed.
