Chapter 5: General Objects and Methods

debug()

Description

Used by developers for debugging purposes. This method causes the string object to dump its contents into an xlog file in hexadecimal and standard formats. This file resides in the current working directory, usually the directory from which the user runs the AIM. Due to the time it takes to dump the contents of a string object, especially if it has a lot of data, use this method with caution, and do not include it in a production AIM.

Syntax

debug();

Return value

Integer. Always returns 1.

Usage

Pointer to object

Object

ps->debug();

my_string.debug();
