BRANCH
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/BRANCH (step to the
next branch instruction).
CALL
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/CALL (step to the
next call instruction).
EXCEPTION
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/EXCEPTION (step to
the next exception).
INSTRUCTION
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/INSTRUCTION (step to
the next instruction).
On VAX processors, you can also specify one or more instructions
(opcode[, . . . ]). The debugger then steps to the next
instruction in the specified list.
On VAX processors, if you specify a vector instruction, do not
include an instruction qualifier (/UNALIGNED_DATA, /MODIFY, /0,
or /1)) with the instruction mnemonic.
INTO
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/INTO (step into
called routines) rather than STEP/OVER (step over called
routines). When INTO is in effect, you can qualify the types
of routines to step into by using the [NO]JSB, [NO]SHARE,
and [NO]SYSTEM parameters, or by using the STEP/[NO]JSB,
STEP/[NO]SHARE, and STEP/[NO]SYSTEM command/qualifier
combinations (the latter three take effect only for the immediate
STEP command).
LINE
(Default) Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/LINE (step
to the next line).
OVER
(Default) Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/OVER (step
over all called routines) rather than STEP/INTO (step into called
routines).
RETURN
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/RETURN (step to the
return instruction of the routine that is currently executing-
that is, up to the point just prior to transferring control back
to the calling routine).
SEMANTIC_EVENT
(Alpha only) Subsequent STEP commands are treated as
STEP/SEMANTIC_EVENT (step to the next semantic event).
SHARE
(Default) If INTO is in effect, subsequent STEP commands
are treated as STEP/INTO/SHARE (step into called routines in
shareable images as well as into other called routines).
NOSHARE
If INTO is in effect, subsequent STEP commands are treated as
STEP/INTO/NOSHARE (step over called routines in shareable images,
but step into other routines).
SILENT
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/SILENT (after a
step, do not display the "stepped to . . . " message or the source
line for the current location).
NOSILENT
(Default) Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/NOSILENT
(after a step, display the "stepped to . . . " message).
SOURCE
(Default) Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/SOURCE
(after a step, display the source line for the current location).
Also, subsequent SET BREAK, SET TRACE, and SET WATCH commands
are treated as SET BREAK/SOURCE, SET TRACE/SOURCE, and SET
WATCH/SOURCE, respectively (at a breakpoint, tracepoint, or
watchpoint, display the source line for the current location).
NOSOURCE
Subsequent STEP commands are treated as STEP/NOSOURCE (after a
step, do not display the source line for the current location).
Also, subsequent SET BREAK, SET TRACE, and SET WATCH commands
are treated as SET BREAK/NOSOURCE, SET TRACE/NOSOURCE, and
SET WATCH/NOSOURCE, respectively (at a breakpoint, tracepoint,
or watchpoint, do not display the source line for the current
location).
SYSTEM
(Default) If INTO is in effect, subsequent STEP commands are
treated as STEP/INTO/SYSTEM (step into called routines in system
space (P1 space) as well as into other called routines).
NOSYSTEM
If INTO is in effect, subsequent STEP commands are treated as
STEP/INTO/NOSYSTEM (step over called routines in system space,
but step into other routines).
