Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Syntax: {CV|CVP|CVW} [options] program [arguments]
 
     CV            The command that invokes the real-mode (DOS) version
                   of CodeView (CV.EXE).
 
     CVP           The command that invokes the protected-mode version
                   of CodeView (CVP.EXE).
 
     CVW           The command that invokes the Windows version of
                   CodeView (CVW.EXE).
 
     Arguments:
 
     <options>     CodeView command-line options.
 
     <program>     The name of the executable file being debugged. This
                   filename is required for CV and CVP. The .EXE
                   extension is optional.
 
                   If the program is a .COM file, you must specify the
                   .COM extension and the <program>.DBG file must be in
                   the same directory as <program>.COM. The .DBG file
                   is created when you link with the LINK /TINY option.
 
                   The program must be compiled with the /Zi and /Od
                   options for source-level debugging. If linked in a
                   separate step, the file must be linked with the
                   /CODEVIEW option.
 
     <arguments>   Command-line arguments passed to the program.
 
                   If you do not give arguments on the command line,
                   you can pass them after starting CV or CVP by
                   choosing the Set Runtime Options command from the
                   Run menu.
