| Summary | 0000024: Debugger commands inconsistant with help message. | ||||||||

It's not mentioned in the user's guide but there is code to implement it in the trace library, in trace/mercury_trace_cmd_forward.[ch], although the code to enable that command in trace/mercury_trace_internal.c has been omitted. It's easy to fix, either enable it properly or delete it. It's just a question of which one. |

zs said it should exist. I'll post a fix for this problem shortly. |

The current implementation of the `fail' command is buggy which is why some of the documentation was already commented out. I've removed the rest of the user visible documentation, i.e. the reference to it from mdb's help message. I've added to fail to mdb's internal table of commands, so that developers can use it if they wish. |
