Hi, I am replying to myself, as I found out part of
the answer, and now I have another question :)
According to CINT ref.txt I can use the function
G__process_cmd(). This function executes cint debugger
interface command. There is a warning:
CAUTION: This API is only for expert's use. Do not use
this API unless you really understand the detail.
After compiling something, I got a message at runtime
that I should initialize, using G__init_process_cmd().
So I did that, and then some thing I tried worked.
(such as G__process_cmd("Class",...)), But some other
things didn't work (such as G__process_cmd("v",...),
probably my fault). Also, after things worked for a
while, suddenly it stopped working at all, and I got
the error "Error: could not create file" for *any*
call to this function, regardless of the parameter.
maybe this is connected to a tmp file or something.
My question is: is there anything special I should
know about, before using these functions? What I want
to do is to use this API in order to send debugger
commands to cint (such as p/print, s/step, etc)
without using the interactive commandline interface.
Thanks!
Christoph
