4 The Trace Facility

4.2 Tracing options

There are a number of options available when using the trace facilities, which allow you both to restrict or expand upon the information printed during a trace. For instance, you can restrict tracing of a function to a particular process, or specify additional actions to be taken on function call entry and exit.

Note that the options and values available only apply to a particular traced function. Each traced function has its own, independent, set of options.

This section describes the options that are available. Each option can be set as described above.

4.2.1 - Evaluating forms on entry to and exit from a traced function
4.2.2 - Evaluating forms without printing results
4.2.3 - Using the debugger when tracing
4.2.4 - Entering stepping mode
4.2.5 - Configuring function entry and exit information
4.2.6 - Directing trace output
4.2.7 - Restricting tracing
4.2.8 - Storing the memory allocation made during a function call
4.2.9 - Tracing functions from inside other functions
