Description
The SEB
command causes the debugger to break after the debuggee causes a system error
or warning of the appropriate level. The SEW command causes the
debugger to display a message under these conditions. If you do not specify a
level, the commands will default to level 1.
The SEB
command implies an SEW level equal to or greater than its own
level. For example, SEB 3 causes the debugger to give warnings at levels
1 - 3.
These errors
are triggered by the WOW subsystem. They are known as RIPs from Win16 where
they usually signal a fatal program error. They are often caused by passing a
bad value to an API function.
