RE: Question of using DDD

[Salman Khilji]

Talk to someone over there how you "properly export your DISPLAY environment variable".  For example, on my SuSE Linux system, when I am logged in as super-user in a shell, I have to say

 

export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0

Subject: Question of using DDD

Hi there,

I am trying to use DDD to help me debug my program but I couldn't.

I am using both unix & linux system of Portland State University

In unix, when I type ddd a.out , it gives me the following error:

 

208 sirius.cs.pdx.edu> ddd a.out
Error: Can't open display:

Can you tell me what's wrong with that?

What can I do to use DDD?

 

I already download ddd -3.2.1 tar.gz.

Is it gonna help me to solve my problem above?

If so, how would I install it in unix and / or linux?

Thanks for your help
