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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     The Go (G) command starts execution at the current address. If
     <breakaddress> is given, CodeView executes the program up to
     that address or until the program terminates. If no <breakaddress>
     is given, CodeView starts execution and continues to the end of
     the program or until it reaches a breakpoint.
     See: ◄Breakpoint and View Addresses►
 
     When CodeView reaches the end of the program in DOS or real mode
     without encountering a breakpoint, it displays the message
 
          Program terminated normally (number)
 
     where <number> is the value returned by the program, sometimes
     called the "exit" or "errorlevel" code. If your program ended with
     an 'exit(<number>)' call, <number> is the value specified in the
     call. Otherwise, <number> is the value in the AX register when the
     program terminated.
 
     In the protected-mode version of CodeView (CVP), the Go command
     passes control to the operating system, which executes all program
     threads that are not frozen (equivalent to the ~*G command). After
     it reaches the end of the program, CodeView displays the message
 
          Thread terminated (number)
 
     This message indicates that thread 1 has terminated and that
     CodeView is ready to execute the ExitList code. If you enter a
     second Go command, CodeView executes the ExitList code and
     displays the 'Program terminated' message shown above.
