Is there any good tracer for os3.x ?

kas1e · 12 January 2022, 09:02

@All
I need a tool that will monitor and show me what functions of necessary library was called. I remember i have something of that sort for 68k back in days, just can't find how it was called.

For example, i need to know what intuition, graphics, and gadtools calls were done by a program when i run it. Disassemble offten show just a number of offset, so usually only exec.library calls is 100% clear from.

Thanks!

Sounds to me you're looking for SnoopDOS: http://aminet.net/package/util/moni/SnoopDos

SnoopDOS is only for some dos/exec calls, but i need an app that can trace anything. I remember there was some tool of this kind where i can myself set up the libraries and their calls that need to trace.

For example, i want to know, what kind of gadtools.library calls happen in one program when i do one or another action. That is just more easy in comparison with reading the whole disassembler listing.

Wedge from Amiga Developer CD 2.1.

Here is some scripts to get you started.

@All
Thanks for the help! But i just stick on snoopy20 because it is just easy to use and works out of the box. It is possible to create your own scripts to patch all that you need and those scripts look easy enough, so i was able to create a 5 mins script for full gadtools.library calls, and one which has mixed graphics and cybergraphics ones.

With this snoopy20 you also can just hide the libs you don't want from taking notice, like workbench.library for example. The same as can hide "con", etc. And it works out of the box on clean pure os3.2 too.
